Listing is for one (1) Button. Hand-made fused glass art buttons, with shank, in a bright green glass with a soft iridescent layer and a cherry red dot. Bright, spring colors for a great spring top! Called "Cherry Blossom" because it reminds me of early spring. One of a kind, ideal for dressing up a store-bought jacket or adding an extra touch of arty goodness to your own hand made wearable. Glass buttons are the final word in elegance.

These fused glass buttons were designed, cut, fused and annealed in a professional programmable kiln by me, in my home studio. Great care is taken to produce an art button that will endure and wear well. As a sewer, knitter and weaver myself, I only make buttons that I would be happy to use on my own wearables.
Glass is the ultimate contrast to fiber; smooth, cold and shiny - it looks stunning when it is an embellishment to a handwoven jacket, knitted sweater, felted purse, or fabric covered book. These buttons have the texture and shine your creation needs to give it that final artsy touch.
Don't just up-scale, ART-scale your wearables!
