Naturally, I couldn't make the iron work. :( I tried and tried to make a rusty heart. :) So, with lots of help from Chris and a phone call to the wonderful Christi, I managed to get rust. The heart found its way into the garbage so I used an old faceted black glass button. This button now looks like Richard Lionheart could have buttoned his hauberk on while on his Crusade. :D Now that I have achieved rustiness, I will go experiment with all the other cool metals and patinas. The Swellegants are on Christi's site. www.cforiginals.com. Is this a great button, or what?

That's a pretty cool button - oh, the possibilities!
Hey MS! Where are you going?? I can't wait to see what you are making. ;D I'm using my moon rock that you gave me as we speak. :D xoxoxo
Thanks, Kat! The Swellegants are really cool! I don't suppose a whole lot of people want to look like Richard Lionheart or the 12th century but I love this button. :)
Yepper, great buttons! Looking forward to seeing lots more Swellegant pieces from your talented hands. I especially like the spring flower piece that looks like it's set on tree bark.
