I got a great package today from Christine of BeadFreaky. You may remember her from my button and bead post last week. I liked her buttons so much, I bought the set I featured. Then we got talking and I traded her Thessaly for an assortment of ceramic hand made buttons. OH, wow! oh wow! Look at all these lovely works of art! One of the green ones (top right, next to the purple dragon fly) with the tree is going on to Audrey's bag for her birthday bag swap.

I also got these two beautiful rust buttons (on the cream cards) from Just Puff. There are a matte finish ceramic with deep etched lines. The rustic, earthy look of them is crying out to be on one of my batik bags.

Then my sister sent me these gorgeous lamp worked glass buttons. The maker is a mystery, but the beauty is undeniable. She's been sending me little gifts to thank me for all the work I have been doing on her site.
