I adore buttons, I have buttons in jars, I have buttons on clothes (additional to those for buttoning up), I have buttons on necklaces, I have buttons on hair clips, I have buttons on earrings, I have buttons on buttons. Where you think I could have buttons, I have them. Well expect for there, ouch! that would hurt. Anyway I think you get the idea of how much I LOVE BUTTONS. So today I thought I try something new.
A few years ago I made a photo frame for a friend (sorry no photos of it) and on that photo frame I attached a beautiful beaded wire tree. I took that idea today to make.... wait for it..... a button tree. It was slightly more complicated than the previous one I had made, the buttons were fiddly to attach and my back hurt so I got fed up half way through but none the less I completed it and this is the outcome.
Due to my poor photography you can't see the colours that well, it has a cute yellow and pink theme going on. I really liked the colours and whilst my wire wrapping techniques need some overdue practice, I will most certainly will be making more of these, so a tutorial will be on its way in the near future. However if you'd like instructions before them feel free to ask.
Hope you like the Button Tree.
Take care for now.
Victoria.
