They appeal to our 'inner child' - sorting\, playing\, admiri ng\, collecting. As a way to display their beauty and being a wire worker\ , Cindy came up with the idea of making a band attached to a button so it can be worn as a ring. Her technique uses basic tools\, coated copper wire and\, of course\, buttons! The buttons in her rings are authentically ant ique or vintage. The most popular are the handcrafted 'picture' buttons fr om the 1880's\, Victorian black glass\, Art Deco and 1940's intensely colo red Czech pressed glass. Cindy's original source of collectible buttons wa s inherited from her Mom. Then she found a local antique collector who sol d her literally all of her small buttons. Having depleted that supply\, I now find them on Etsy and other websites. She's made and sold 2000 +/- so far. Making the rings is actually therapeutic.
