I've decided I'd like to start making jewelry this summer. One of my first attempts involved diving into a big bag of buttons I've had in my desk drawer all year. The goal was to make a necklace. Black and white seemed like a good place to start, since it goes with everything. I found a
Youtube tutorial that made it look so simple, and I started by laying out the buttons how I wanted them.
Things started off okay. I used 24-gauge wire and pliers, just as the crafter in the video recommended. But about 1/3 of the way through, it broke!
I wasn't in the mood to start over, so i turned into a pendant. Now I just have to figure out what I want to string it on to.
Not a 100% successful first attempt, but a good start!
