How fun are these strawberry buttons! Buttons are painted to show the various shades of ripeness as strawberries mature through the season. I just thought it was a cute idea.
My handmade ceramic buttons are made by rolling out slabs of clay and then cutting the shapes. When they become leather hard, I clean the edges and put the holes in them. Then, while they are still leather hard, I paint them with underglazes and fire them in a bisque fire at cone 04. Next, I glaze them with a clear 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.
