Deep Blue Malahide Hedge Leaves Button
Sizes:
1 3/8" x 1 3/8"
My handmade ceramic buttons are made by rolling out slabs of clay, rolling a texture into the clay, and then cutting the shapes. When they become leather hard, I clean the edges and put the holes in them. This button design is put through the bisque fire at cone 04 before I glaze them with a celadon glaze in order to highlight all of the details. I fire them again at cone 6. This process vitrifies the clay, which makes them strong, and makes the glaze colors vibrant and rich. These buttons are great for knitting, crocheting, or sewing. The perfect accent or embellishment for a bag, hat, or cardigan.
*This pattern was designed based on a drawing I did while in Ireland. A great pattern that can be used for so many different fiber arts.
