Susan is working on some new designs using vintage buttons as molds. One of the buttons she is using is this one, which belonged to a robe she had as a child. This button is used as the mold for the rose earrings (which are on the site) and the new rose bracelet (which isn't).

Here are some of the new designs and some old buttons. She's placed some of them over pieces of can to see how they look. The bird shape is well on its way to becoming a pin.

Here are some of the cans we've been using:

Finally, here are some more resin button designs, backed with pieces cut from the cans above.
