The first project using one of the items I got from the flea market: a lace brooch with an extra decoration element given by a vintage button. I made this brooch as a present for a friend. I loved working on it, it is so rewarding to do something for a friend. I also like the idea of using old items in this way, to create new things. I am curious what you think about it, if you find it as pretty as I do :) PS: and if you want to do one just like this I wrote a short tutorial. You know where you can find it :) Happy crocheting!
Wow! I love your idea of using vintage buttons to create something unique! I am always looking for ideas for recycling vintage items. Your idea will make a long way with me. thanks
Hi, thanks! I am new to up-cycling but is slowly growing on me. Expect some more posts like this in the future :)
