I have been struggling with that cube peyote bracelet and the button clasp for a few days now. The one I asked for advice for in my previous post. Have tried 2 versions of metal hook, which I by the way made both myself from wire and the look really good if I may say so myself. 
But the hook didn't work so well for me, so now I will look into some of the other suggestions I got from you.

And Mary Harding has posted about a bracelet in peyote and a shank button clasp. She had the sides overlapping so no skin will show. I am gonna look into that, although I am afraid it might become a bit thick with 4 mm cubes. I will let yoyu know when I have completed it, and show you.
So ... and I also have a few other semi-finished projects on my desktop. Will take photos tomorrow or day after. I AM gonna fullfill my task of "one-a-day"! I am just a little behind at the moment. Have been feeling rather bad from the MS the last few days, and that steals a lot of energy from me.

Hey!
What better way of cheering oneself up when a little down than doing some BEAD SHOPPING! All the photos in this post are of beads I purchased yesterday and now am waiting for to arrive in my mail. Am I happy about these purchases or what? Are you envious? I would be!

Vilka mumsiga färger i de där första pärlorna. Ja, nu kommer jag att vara lite avundsjuk på dig för dem. ;)
Hoppas du snart mår bättre så du får tillbaks energin o kan pärla.
Ja visst är de härliga! Det är liksiom flera nivåer av färg också. Jag har haft mina ögon på dem i flera veckor. Och ingen annan har köpt dem före mej! Yipppie!!!!
Sitter och pärlar nu faktiskt! Framför datorn ...
Igår kollade jag in kartan du har gjort på pärlbutiker i Sverige. Wow! Du är så underbart ambitiös och "nördig" på nåt sätt. Samlar fakta och information samt redovisar strukturerat och lättfattligt. Jag har sån nytta av din blog! Vill skicka dej en kram faktiskt.
