Button Necklace


You all know about my love affair with buttons.  Well, I recently found a great tutorial for a button necklace on a blog called Lilly Pilly.   Jo, who writes this wonderful blog, lives in Australia. 


Even though I rarely wear jewelry, it was fun making these necklaces.  What do you think?




The buttons for the necklace below are made from  old  iredescent mother-of-pearl.




By the way, Ellena Elizabeth, from another beautiful Australian blog, commented that Lilly Pilly is a native Australian  plant used for hedges in their country.
