Don''t know if anyone else subscribes to the new Martha mag: Blueprint ...but I just got the Sept/Oct? issue ... and they have an AMAZING spread "how-to" thingie devoted to making fun cocktail rings from vintage or new buttons.

Two type of strategy basically ... Epoxy or Solder ...depending on the type of button but the ones in the layout were STUNNING!!!

The looked almost if not AS good as the neighboring spread on new designer BIG CLUNKY type of fashion rings.

A MUST look for bling lovers! (Especially ones handier than I!)
 
I have a subscription to that mag but my issue hasn''t shown up yet! I was at Wegmans tonight and it was at the checkout counter and I''m thinking "where''s mine?!?!?!" Hope the mail lady didn''t swipe it! I love buttons! That would be a fun project.

Good point really. My camera isn''t charged .. but I looked around on the web & found
this link (hope it works)
 
Eh ... looks like this is the best I can do ... a pix from the OTHER part of the article called "Lord Of The Rings" ... which I guess were the shmancy high priced whoppers that inspired the button ring DIY project.
