>Badly behaved buttons

>Ah, alliteration, how we have missed you!

A while ago, I made a cute pair of earrings from some rather yummy green vintage buttons, and they were snapped up rather quickly (hurrah!). I wanted a pair for myself, so I was thrilled when I found not one, not two, but four of the buttons in my stash over the weekend – whee! The downside is that now the buttons have been made into earrings, they have become unruly. To the point where I am considering starting a correctional facility for deliquent jewellery. I already have a plastic storage box of jewellery which refuses to be photographed correctly, and is doomed to stay there FOREVER (or until I finally get myself organised enough to attend a craft fair *hollow laughter*).
