I recently became one of the sole proprietaries of an estate. Okay, sort of. It's a really long story, but part of that story is that I found myself with hundreds of antique buttons, all dusty and covered in decades of nicotine. They needed a good wash, and a good wash they got, before they were decanted into some old ball jars so I could ooh and aah over how pretty they were- see?
There were a few that I selected as favorites, keeping them separate for jewelry projects. The first of which was this necklace, made simply by putting three shank buttons and a little paper flower on a jump ring and adding it to an old chain. I love it!
