Wired "Buttons Buttons" by Diana Harwood (click to view larger picture)

If using just one or two buttons at a time, like in Albina Manning’s free Button Ring pattern, just isn’t going to do, it’s time for a full-on button necklace! Diana Harwood created this wire and button necklace with an assortment of buttons fixed with 24-gauge wire, which she attached to a base of crocheted wire. Diana also created a neck wire from 18-gauge wire, which holds the wire crochet base, and fixed buttons to the neck wire itself with wire crochet.

    This is really a unique design. What a great way of using up your extra buttons. Diana did a wonderful job on this necklace. And I love that it’s been put together with crochet wire. I have been experimenting some with crocheting wire. Thanks for sharing.
