    I like that arborite top, I am assuming it's a table top, that you shot your buttons on.

    How nice that you were able to match that hutch with a "freebie" from your friend!!!

    You are fabulous - honestly! That deck looks fantastic, and so does your bakelite button bracelet. I wish I had more time to do things, it's not that I lack ideas...

    What a fun deck, Linda, you sure take on some intense projects all on your own!:clapping:
    You say it was difficult to parge, even more difficult when you don't even know what "parging" is! :puzzled::wacko:nervous emoti To Parge or Not to Parge???

    I was wondering about "parging" as well! "How difficult could it be to parge?" Beats me! It all looks difficult to me!

    Can't say that I have seen those types of buttons on a garment...bracelet looks great! The wicker piece is sweet, I can't say I've seen anything like that either.

    Oh Lord - I wish I had known about this earlier! I had a bunch of those buttons that I sold at Brimfield this summer.

    Linda,

    WOW on everything. I am impressed with your hard work and design ideas. :clapping:

    The bug looks like it might be a cicada, and not a fly. Pretty cool.

    I had no idea of their value! I think I had 6 of them and I could have helped you finish your bracelet.

    But they went to a good buyer at least.

    That makes me smile. I don't wear jewelry much anymore, but that's the kind of thing I would wear.
