I'm just getting caught up a bit on blogs, & wow girl, you've been busy! I love the bags and the buttons! And sorry I missed the auction. I hope it raised some well-needed funds. Will you be selling any buttons?
Hi Laurie,
I am always running like a chicken with my head cut off! The auction went well and raised a good amount of money. there were some wonderful pieces! I've sold some bags and need to make some buttons. I'll have to see how things go-that first round was all experimental colorants. And I was quite pleased with them!!
OK. Let me know if & when you've got buttons to sell. They're beautiful! Not much of a jewelry girl, but I could definitely get into the buttons!
All girls need some jewelry! But will let you know if buttons work out to sell!!
