This my most recent mobile in blues.  I love the drift wood
collected from Tranquile Creek recently.

This is the first attempt of a project to use these magnificent\buttons
I collected over a period of 9mths from a source that sells discontinue\
buttons.  I realized over that period that I was collecting this type button
in several different colours and sizes and realized they should be displayed
in a form that would enhance their beauty.  I love this but there is too much unused
space so below is my second but not final attempt as I used a smaller background and
more buttons.

This is the second attempt and I like the idea of the smaller background
and using glass to cover with a frame to mount, however, I used a glue
gun and it is messy.  It doesn't allow for mistakes on cardboard so there
are a few imperfections.  So I have a new thin board and will soak the cardboard
away and remove all the glue gun glue (using rubbing alcohol).  It will be a
labour of love and I will use flue tape for the boarder and then glue dots for the rest.
I hope to post the final piece soon.  I think I will use gold flake on the old frame as well.
