my creative space...

 

 

I've been enjoying a bit of early morning jar cosy crocheting for this.

And thank you all for your help last week with those vintage hankies, I ended up going with the bunting and my lil sis loved it :)

What's been happening in your space lately? You can show it off or check out more here.

Button Charm Bracelet

A little something I whipped up last week but forgot to share. When my nieces come to visit they always insist on leaving with a button from the re-purposed plastic peanut butter jar. They know exactly where to go to pick one out. I'm amazed by their obssession with these little bits of plastic, they act as though they're receiving a gold coin. I'm sure my sister's car is strewn with abandoned buttons by the time they make their long trip home. I came up with the button charm bracelet last week. Now when they visit rather than walking out with a simple button, they can walk out with a new charm sewn onto their bracelet ;)

If you've read this far I know you're killing yourself wondering where those bird buttons come from. Pop over to reREAD to find them.
