back in stock, treasury features

I've completed a new button bracelet every day this week.  I'm planning to work on a few pairs of button earrings like these next.  I uploaded pictures for one of the bracelets today: black and white button charm bracelet. I've sold two versions of it.  Here's hoping that someone out there wants this third one!




I don't know why the background on these pictures tinted so heavily red.  At least the clarity is pretty good.  As it is with the majority of my button bracelets, I had fun mixing new and vintage buttons for this bracelet.

I'm planning to list new items over the next few days so stay tuned. :)

Two of my items were included in new treasuries today.  StrandsofPearl included my Christmas button charm bracelet in her BUTTONS treasury.

  2. Daylight fluorescent light has a pink cast. What setting did you have for your camera's white balance? Black and white are the hardest colors to photograph. Maybe less light? Good Luck. I usually get a pink background on green bracelets!

  3. Thanks Virtue! I agree. :) I will check out your blog.

    I leave the setting on automatic, Karen. I know that there is tons of advice out there about adjusting the settings on your camera, but I haven't found anything yet that works better than automatic. I could play around with it for my black and white pieces. The music background has become my signature look on Etsy so I don't want to change that. I'll keep experimenting, though. This is the third time I've photographed that design, and those pictures are still the best of the bunch.
