New Adventure with Crystaletts®!

Last December I had a very serendipitous meeting.....
resulting in a new adventure for me!

Crystaletts® ~ The world's smallest crystal button!

It all started six months into the button's development, when I met Dorinda Balanecki, Director of Design for Horsman Ltd. at a charity function! I was intrigued by some sparkly bits she was knitting with and asked about them. Dorinda explained what they were and I squealed with excitement imagining all the possible uses in beadwork! We determined to meet up again after the holidays, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Here's the back story to these nifty buttons: Horsman Ltd is known for their dolls. They design and manufacture poseable fashion dolls. When Dorinda's doll "Urban Vita" needed crystal buttons for her argyle sweater,,, voila! a new product was born.
