Czech Glass Button Jewelry-It's Hip to Be Square with This Ring





I am digging all these Czech glass buttons that I picked up at the quilt show in Houston last year. This square glass button has a Celtic looking design (my Irish Gran would be proud if she were still alive). I made a simple silver band and wire wrapped the shank GENTLY because I did NOT want to tear the shank off (learned that the hard way I may add!). In order to stabilize the wire wrap and shank, I added a little epoxy.

This Hip to Be Square ring will be added to my jewelry box but I just wanted to share....
