I am working on this wide bracelet at the moment. Width: 1 inch and 1/4 or 3,3 cm. Peyote stitch with 4 mm cubes. A huge shank button shall work as the clasp.
Look! I have expanded my button collection. From no buttons at all, to this bunch. A really lovely one in my own opinion. I am planning to start using a lot more buttons in my jewellery. Mainly as clasps, but also just incorporated instead of ordinary beads.

That's a lovely mix of colours, and a great button collection!
i love those flat beads
i'm jealous of your button collection
Jo, I think those buttons you sent me sparked off me having to get some more. There is this marvellous shop in central Stockholm. It is dedicated to buttons and ribbons. I can spend hours in there. But I never bought anything before. Next time I will ask them if I may take some photos to post on my blog. To show you paradise! I have to go there soon again, because I saw some more "must-haves" just as I was leaving.
it all looks great! that is one cool bracelet... how did you make out with the lampwork bead search?
The lampwork bead search ... I now know who made them. Read my comment under previous post.
I love the colors you choose for your bracelet. I can't wait to see this finished!
And your buttons! How wonderful!
That should have read "have chosen for your bracelet".
Love the bracelet - and your button-collection is awesome. regards Stefanie
