So this weekend we were cleaning the house and my boyfriend found some old pillow cases we didn't use anymore.  He was going to throw them out, but I thought "Hmm, I could use these to practice some sewing with"  So I took them to my sewing table and I ended up with this:

There are some rough spots on it, but I am not planning on selling it since I made it for me.  I think its pretty cute.  What do you think???

So as I was sitting down to my craft table today, I started to pull out some buttons and came up with a new idea for some necklaces.  They are sorta in between the necklaces I have right now.  Very similar to my brooches, but in necklace form.  I like then a lot.  Here is kinda the way they evolved.

So I start out looking for my boxes of buttons and I come up with what I like to call a cluster of matching buttons.

After I get some matching pairs, I decide which ones I like the best.  Today I went with two different ones, the green/aqua color ones and the blue ones.

Once I get those I glue them to some felt so they have a nice backing on them. 

And after that I cut them out and put the necklace back on them.  (Since I made these I decided to change it up from the ones pictures to have the backing part inside the felt. 

Then I add a chain and taa daa a new star is born!

Let me know what you think?  Are these gonna be a good seller?  Or a flop do you think?
