These handmade ceramic buttons are made by rolling out slabs of clay, laying old lace on the clay and then rolling over the lace and clay to press the lace pattern into the clay. Finally, the buttons are cut into the desired shapes. When they become leather hard, I clean the edges and put the holes in them. When they are bone dry I fire them in a bisque fire at cone 04. Then I glaze them with a 2-3 layers of mid-range glaze and 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.
