holidays and projects (the second)

so, i'm on holidays this week (i know, who'd be me!) and just before i head off to the beach, i thought i would pop up the second in my holiday project series.

button necklaces:

the idea for these came from a necklace a friend of mine bought in england. i just loved the simplicity and the slight randomness of it. so i made two...

and all of the buttons come from the fabulous button collection i inherited from my grandmother. they are very wearable, and i often get lovely comments on them. simple projects made from stuff you have lying around at home are my favourite types of projects. (except maybe for projects that involve a little bit of op-shopping).

well, i best get back to packing - i wonder where i put my sunscreen...
