Vintage Button and Beads
Set by me
| All 3 pieces |

This lovely, tactile piece features of an old enamelled brooch pin depicting the Virgin Mary. Brenda incorporated it with some beading on felted fibres.
Clare brought some sweet little plastic owl beads from the 70s that she planned to use for this challenge but with a new baby to look after didnt get chance to work on her project. Instead she crocheted with wire & gemstones this retro inspired bracelet.
I pulled one of the silk caps I dyed recently into a very thin roving & crocheted this simple choker. Button & beads have been rattling round in my stash for yonks - its good to use them on something :)
