copper buttons
Look what the courier man brought today - a huge box of handmade copper buttons. Little and big square and round and hearts. I have nabbed some little square ones for my new rust book which is nearly finished - just making the rods for the ends. Very exciting to get these - Ian will do much nicer pictures for the website tomorrow I hope. If you only knew how long it took me to track them down and as usual all for my own selfish use - but willing to share them with everyone else of course! They are all beautifully hand made - quite yummy.
By the way - all bar 3 of the books have gone. I do believe I will have some more to come before too long.
