the first is a bracelet with two glittering buttons, but without the flowers. i crocheted chains and closed it into a ring, followed by one row of h dc. i rolled up the bracelet and wrapped yarn around two sides and then attached the buttons. this bracelet can easily function as an suspender sleeve.

second, i made ​​a necklace and attached the flowers with buttons on it. with aqua-colored yarn i made basting stitches and sewed the buttons tighter. then i made ​​a matching bracelet with a button for decoration.
alternatives
  • you could make a narrow belt if you don't close the chains into a ring. you can make a closure with a small clasp or with a buttonhole or a loop and a button. 
  • as an alternative for the bracelet you can think of this as a decoration at the ends of sleeves, for example.

if you know a girl who would love to wear the necklace with matching bracelet, you can post a comment to tell me. you can do this until august 30 (tuesday) and shortly thereafter, i will reveal my choice from the entries. 
extra info
you can not open the bracelet and it is to small to fit an adult hand. the necklace is also fine if the girl wears her hair in a ponytail or a knot. maybe i'm a bit cautious but i do not think the jewelry is suitable for the youngest, but i will leave that up to you.
i am looking forward to your entries!
