SuperButton Sunday

It all started with a few buttons.

(Well, maybe it was more than just a few buttons.) 

And time, because that is usually what I am short on.

Sunday afternoon, after a Sunday afternoon nap, after a Saturday nightshift...

I don't want to straighten anything up, I don't want to do the dishes,

I don't want to run a load of laundry through. 

I want to do something creative-ish. 

So, buttons. 

Button, button, who's got the button?

Who remembers playing this game? 

Only involves one piece of equipment and multiple children.

I'll let you guess what equipment is needed. 

Here's a hint:

However, for my craftiness today, I needed not only buttons and a few beads, but string. 

I like jute. 

Jute sometimes likes me, unless the buttonholes are too small. 

I played around with various combinations and ideas for getting the bracelets on and off. 

Note: Jute does not stretch to get over chunky knuckles. 

 I like the look of these. I am partial to purple. 

Who wouldn't be?

And pearls. 

Purple and pearls. 

Sigh. 

Still playing around. 

I like neutral colors combined together too. 

They have a calming effect. 

Red and black? Not so much. But that was Ryan's favorite. Should I be surprised? 

I didn't even watch the Superbowl. 

Instead I got distracted in the buttons and watched a video with Heather and Ryan. 

Remember The Absentminded Professor? 

Is there really any better way to spend a Sunday afternoon and evening? 

Unless of course, it was the Steelers playing in the Superbowl...

Love,
