Craft: More Crochet

**************** I am going through some kind of nesting, crafting-love phase and I found so many lovely crochet confections that I had to do this second crochet post....hope you don't mind. I especially love the large striped shoulder bag. It would be perfect for the beach. Click * for linkity-link.

Love the eye popping color used in some of these crochet pieces.So retro and fun! My Mom is a very good crocheter.She finds it very relaxing and who couldn't do with a little of that?...I think I really need to learn how to do this.

Crafty Buttons

Admittedly, I've never been the least bit crafty.I can't knit or crochet, and I can barely turn a hem.In an effort to broaden my horizons I'm going to feature a few posts that are decidedly crafty, starting with this one: the many uses of buttons. They are pretty stored in jars, photographed in a stack or even made into cute little button bouquets.I cheated a bit with the button cookies but they were too cute to resist....and I bet you can't tell which image it is....
