Summer Home Handmade Polymer Clay Button Embellishments-Set of 7

Summer time reminds me of a lot of things.....fresh cut grass, the smell of flowers, vacations and more! I love summer and wish it was all year round! To celebrate the season I made these sweet little polymer clay buttons called "Summer Home" found in my shop here. I baked and glazed these buttons to give them a very shiny surface. Unfortunately my picture taking skills lack a bit and I was not able to photograph the shine! I love how these turned out....especially the hot pink and pearly pale pink colors in this set! I'm playing around with polymer clay these days and expanding my button line to go above the chipboard epoxy buttons I carry in my shop. I've already made several other type of sets/themes just waiting to be photographed. Hopefully I can do that before the summer ends!!!!

DIY Favor Packaging Tutorial

I LOVE things that are matching and I LOVE candy. So bring the two things together and I won't be able to stop staring. Such is the case with these most adorable HANDMADE favors! Did someone say "handmade?"....now you REALLY have my attention! I really like the colors used and I especially like that big melon berry colored button on the tin. If you don't know by now from reading previous posts, I have a bit of an obsession with buttons...(just a wee bit! sigh!) If you want to recreate this look just follow this step by step tutorial found here. You can even purchase the supplies to make the exact one pictured here by clicking here. A key component to making this look good is the jellybeans were hand picked to have only the coordinating colors in the package and tins. So what do you do with the left over jellybeans? EAT them of course!!!!!
