Another Fun Ottobre Project


These are a bracelet and necklace made from waxed cord and buttons following directions in the 03/2008 issue of Ottobre Design magazine. They are hung over the hanger and pinned to the bodice of an Ottobre outfit described in previous blog entries. I made both the necklace and bracelet in about an hour. This would be a fun project for kids to do too--maybe age 8 and up? Now I need to pack up the goodies and send them to my grand daughter. Better find something to stick in the package for her little brothers too!

Now how did I miss the directions for the button necklace?

Perfect and super cute!

I just wondered if there were directions somewhere that I was missing. Did you just look at the picture on the cover and do your own thing? I'm so pattern/instruction dependent---sorry thing that I am, LOL. :-)

Ruth and "daughter of the king" the directions for the necklace are in the 3/2008 issue of Ottobre Design--see page 33. They are pretty easy--I had more trouble finding the waxed cord! It was easy and could be done in infinite color combinations! Enjoy!
