This is where you come into it. I decided that I'd throw my decision out to all of you. Kind of like a choose your own adventure story where you get to choose the ending. So what should it be fellow bloggers, the buttons* or the beads?
I'll hold off finishing this cover until Sunday. It'll be absolute torture for me cos I am a woman obsessed when it comes to these kind of things. Still, it'll be worth it. I look forward to all your feedback.
*the buttons are a mix of mauve and pink. apologies for the second rate photograph

Ooh that is beautiful, I would go for the beads as it would look very traditional and vintagey. Is vintagey a word? :)
Great project, I would go for the beads :)
buttons buttons buttons - the beads are lovely but would not be noticed and appreciated as much! Oh and I love a good button!
Button it! Everybody uses beads.... be unique & button it!
How funny. I just pulled out a heap of old Choose your own adventure books from when I was a kid. Now Indi is reading them and loving them. Its great to listen to her squeal when she finishes a book after just reading 13 pages. I love the jug cover and think the buttons would finish it beautifully.
hmm, i always love the way that the beads sound when they tinkle against the jug they are covering, but for this one, i think the buttons. i think they would add a bit more in the way of contrast...
My vote is for those beautifuk green beads for sure!
Whoops - that should be BEAUTIFUL!
I'm going to be difficult and say use both, alternate them. Cherrie
I say beads..I love buttons they make me think of grandma, but those beads are ..well they just belong on that jug cover! :-)

Oh my Lord, that's beautiful! I would say buttons for contrast, but that's just me...

Oh I'm so glad you received it ok! I was a little worried. I would have hated it if it went astray!.
Does it snow where you are? could you take a photo of it on a jug or bowl in the snow? It just doesn't snow here and I'll never be able to take such a photo. I am probably coming across as a total weirdo. Sorry Elizabeth!!
If it doesn't snow where you are, I won't be disappointed. I'm am just really happy it has made it safely to you!!
