Button Brooch Back

This brooch is handmade from vintage buttons. I love buttons and think of them as tiny works of art in their own right. Lots of time goes into finding, cleaning, repairing and sometimes dyeing or painting them before I use them to make something. I hope you love this brooch as much as I do!

 

The buttons range from plastic, rhinestone, celluloid, shell, glass, mother of pearl, bakelite and wood. They are sewn on felt covered plastic canvas and a metal pinback. It measures 2-2.5inches in diameter. This brooch is the perfect accent piece for any handbag or jacket.
