Buttons, Buttons, Buttons!

I love buttons. They're just so versatile. You can do so much with them. Plus, they're pretty and come in so many different colours and designs.

I love picking them out at op-shops and haberdashery departments.

I love sewing them into things.

But I especially love making bracelets out of them...

This one is a Blue, Purple and Peach coloured button bracelet and is available on my etsy shop.


Yellow, Lime, Blue Button Bracelet

This one is a Yellow, Lime and Blue button bracelet, and will be available on my etsy shop soon.

I'm also happy to make custom colour combos for anyone who wants any particular coloured buttons to match an outfit, theme or just their favourite colours. Just let me know and I'll be happy to accommodate your requests.

There will be more button bracelets gracing both of my online shops in the near future, so keep an eye out for them

The week that was

This week has been a busy one at Box of Glory HQ. I've been getting back into my crafting, which is what I was hoping would happen these holidays. I've been making lots of button bracelets (they should be up on my etsy shop and madeit shop by Monday afternoon! Yay!). I've also made a bunch of fascinators (some of which will be going to Leeloo, and the rest to etsy and madeit.

fascinators

It's been fun. Hopefully I'll be making a bunch of brooches in the next week too.


I really want to overstock my online shops as much as I can before uni starts again, because I know I won't get much time after that. It's photos/uploads/listings that take the longest!



I also made some cupcakes the other night. Pink frosting with edible glitter, yum!




How has your week been?
