Hello<\/p>\n

If you collect old buttons – and even if you do not – I have a simple project to share. \u00a0I selected a few of my favorite carved mother of pearl buttons for a quick and easy wire-wrapped pendant tutorial. \u00a0 \u00a0With just one button and a few inches of wire, you’ll \u00a0have a brand new necklace to wear in no time. \u00a0Lampwork discs, ceramic pendants and other flat components are just the right thing to make a pendant too.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m happy to join the Craftsy<\/a> community and will be a contributor to their jewelry blog. \u00a0There’s always brand new content + inspiration over in the Craftsy columns – something for everyone (paper crafts, photography, knitting, cake decorating, sewing…just<\/em> to name a few!), so check back frequently.<\/p>\n

You’ll find my wire-wrapped pendant tutorial right here<\/a>, complete with step by step pictures. \u00a0Grab your favorite button or two and just a few tools, and you’ll be on your way!<\/p>\n
