Well, I'm still making those leather bracelets from Denise Galloway and Maria Loughran using up my mother's collection of buttons. This one uses a coat button and blue leaves (and we all know Michele loves leaves!). Problem was that I really wanted to showcase the button this time. So I'll show two pics and you'' have to go down to the Take Your Best Shot forum to see what I had to use for a prop.  Flat, you'll see a couple of bright blue leaves I've had for almost 10 years and didn't have a use for until now:  |

That's really pretty, Sue. I love how the beads pop out of the dark.

I do love leaves and yours are no exception. ;D
Sue, your bracelet is gorgeous. That button is fantastic. Wonderful colors too.

Thanks, Cat. But as I look at the flat one here the glass leaves look a bit fuzzy. They aren't in the original pic. Not sure why. I was shooting with my light box and f2.8 which should have made everything in focus. It may be just that they are transparent. I'll need to research that problem.

Gorgeous, Sue! I love the icy blue of the leaves with the darker blue of the beads. The button makes a stunning focal. Photo looks fine on my monitor.  Dawn |

Thankyou, guys (why do we gals refer to ourselves as guys?).

Cuz, guys is a cool word - one that the males shouldn't have a total monopoly over. It's a unisex word! Dawn |

And there isn't a word like that for women. You don't expect me to call you ladies, do you?  |

Yup, Cat, you're right, I'm pretty sure not many of us qualify as ladies!

Nice colour combo. Very balanced design, I like that the bracelet part itself is not dominating but complementing the button.  |
