Crochet in Paris

I actually wish I could be in Paris right now. Maybe not on Eiffel Tower, oh no (I am terrified of hights!). But I would love to sit on Montmartre in front of Sacre Coeur and just enjoy being there again.

Have you been to Paris?

Anyways, I am thinking about Paris, as I got those cute buttons with an Eiffel Tower on them:

As you can see I have made a bracelet with them (yeah, I know, I am addicted to making bracelets recently).

This bracelet came out surprisingly good. I only got this wool, as it was in a set with two other colours I really liked. This one stayed in my stash for around 2 years, before I finally decided to do something with it and.... I was really positively surprised. It came out great once crocheting. It took me a while to choose a button for her and then I noticed the Eiffel Tower one. And it was it. It brightened up nicely all the dark parts.

As I really enjoyed working with this wool I decided to made wider bracelet, more cuff like.

Once I finished I realised that this button is to small for it. I had a look through all big buttons I have and founf something just perfect:







It looks so great with jeans and a tank top or a black t-shirt. I have made just a couple, but they are still available on Etsy here.
