I'm cheating on my fabric.  I'm kind of cheating on my buttons, but they're involved.  I've developed a love affair with beads.  Not just any beads, vintage plastic & glass beads.  Oh, how I love them!  What initially attracted me is how well they match my vintage buttons.  It's a match made in heaven. 

It all started when I stopped in a local bead shop that had some of these beauties.  Then I started searching on line.  Oh boy!  I have to control myself, really.

Look what I made. There are more in the works, along with lots earrings.  I find putting these together very therapeutic, though I must admit that I'm starting to miss my fabric.  By the way, these are in the shop if you're interested.

Lucky me, I have a friend who's supporting my habit.  Thanks Susan, I LOVE them :)
