Remember that worn out vintage tin of Marie Antoinette at court in Versailles I found a few months back? It's finally all (re)used up with a necklace still to post about here. I also picked up some fabulous antique buttons at Lincoln flea market this weekend and have already used two on these rococo and baroque inspired earrings. . . . #versailles #rococo #baroque #frenchcourt #letthemeatcake #marieantoinette #upcycledearrings #marieantoinettestyle #assemblageart #asymmetricalearrings #royalcourt #vintagebuttons #buttoncollector #antiquebutton #salvagedjewelry #sustainablefashion #smokyquartz https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj3TQ5DNtrb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Antique Circus Buttons is my first painting for 2023. My friend gave me buttons that once belonged to a circus performer. The buttons are over 100 years old. Those buttons were the inspiration for this painting.

Another button to identify except I’m trying to find out what it says. I assume it’s a #Chinesecharacter rather than #japanese but perhaps someone can #helpidentifythis. Anyone have any knowledge of #orientallanguages ? #vintagebutton #antiquebutton #collectablebuttons #vintagestyle #ilovevintage #chineselanguage #chineseart https://www.instagram.com/p/CASTSSqJj2K/?igshid=b6r9jmaull7s

This recent listing has just sold but I wanted to share it with you anyway as it contains the final pieces of the vintage Marie Antoinette at Versailles tin. You can see the courtiers in the parlour playing cards and then dropping them at the entrance of the French Queen. I particularly love the details of the man with the monocle that sits at the end of the chain for a side connection. Also included in the necklace are a variety of French jet black glass buttons, Austrian mirror back pillow button and mother of pearl in carved flowers. . . . #marieantoinette #marieantoinettestyle #frenchjet #victorianglass #antiquebuttons #vintagebuttons #mirrorbackbuttons #motherofpearl #upcycledtin #vintagetin #tinnecklace #salvagedfashion #sustainablejewelry https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj7uRfOo1La/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#learningcurve ,writing my book was a massive one! This #dandelion project took four attempts. I wanted it on velvet at first in yellow silk embroidery, it really didn't work as the pile was too high, but I tried again with blue backing silk and this time the application of the sequins let me down, this was attempted again before I finally cracked it with white silk thread, less sequins more simply attached and a red backing silk. #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2020 #18thcenturycostume #embroideredcostume #antiquebuttons⁠ #embroideredbuttons #silkembroidery #silkthread #dandelionembroidery #embroideredwaistcoat⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/B9n2yLiImNJ/?igshid=owncmny858r4

I must admit I splurged on this button a bit, but how could I resist! Thought I would show a bit about the process: the unfired clay piece, just out of the kiln, and then finished piece out of the tumbler! Quite a process but well worth it! #elephantjewelry #antiquebuttonjewelry #antiquebuttons #metalclay #elephantbutton #makeragonnamake https://www.instagram.com/p/Bol9e6lleEI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vpxsnqv4oy8q
