IMPORTANT MESSAGE:-- (INSERTED 9/15/07)



Concerning the Mug styles used for the PERSONALIZED MUGS. I sometimes have to substitute a different style if the one shown is no longer available. If this is a concern for you, please ask to see the one available. Thanks, Bettye


  • Hello! My name is Bettye Watkins. I live in a sleepy little town on the Kentucky lake, called Big Sandy, Tennessee. I moved here in 1964 -- a few years after I married my husband, Ike. He has lived here since he was 10 years old and thinks it is the greatest place on earth. It is I guess, but it offers nothing for a creative person who wants to sell and promote her crafts.


    BUTTONS

    I've always dabbled in art, but it wasn't until 1989, when I started creating these tiny ceramic buttons, that I felt really satisfied and happy in what I do. We traveled for about 8 years and sold buttons at the big trade shows in Memphis, Tennessee; Houston, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia; Birmingham, Alabama; and St. Louis, Missouri. We no longer travel, so I find myself looking for ways to get my product out for people to see. That is when I discovered eBay. So, I went out and bought a computer and decided to try this route. I am very proud of my buttons. I have created over 500 patterns that I have to offer you. These buttons are totally 100% handmade---from the plastic template I use to cut them, to the raw clay I use to form them. Each button is handled at least 6 to 8 times (for ones with 1 color) plus extra times every time a new color is added. If you can decorate 5 of the highly detailed ones in an hour, you are doing really well.



    JEWELRY & BUTTON COVERS

    I also do Ceramic Jewelry & Button Covers from these patterns. You will need to check my site often. I do all kinds of artistic products that I will be offering as soon as I get things in order.

    Thanks for visiting my "About Me" page. Be sure and stop by often, and if you have friends who appreciate and need ceramic decorative buttons, and any of the many items I create-send them my way.



    SPECIAL MESSAGE CONCERNING THESE 100% HANDMADE BUTTONS

    Before I close, I would like for you to think about the value my ceramic buttons will have in about 30 or 40 years down the road. They will probably be as collectable as the old hand crafted pieces we find ourselves looking for and treasuring these days. Don't you think??? I can just see my grandchildren telling their children, "Your Great Grandmother did those."


    OTHER ITEMS & CRAFT

    I take just as much pride in all the other crafts I will be presenting to you, things like:
    • Over 100 series cards of Handmade Ceramic Buttons (also several pins)
    • Finished ceramic Items, for your home
    • 40 of my hand made Whirligigs
    • Over 35 Sewing Machine Pins
    • Pretty twisted copper wire window, and tree ornament, also windchimes
    • Aquarium "Critters" and Loc Nessies in lots of different colors



    MUCH, MUCH MORE

    These things will always be here at a fixed price in the store. But please don't forget to check out my eBay listings for new things.

    99% of the items in my store and auction listings I create myself. If you would like to make a "SPECIAL REQUEST" for something you don't see- in any catagory, I can probably do it for you. Just email me, we will talk about it!!! I will strive to have a little something for everyone, .

    If you like what I have to offer, be sure to tell a friend. Word of mouth is still the best advertisement, and it doesn't cost a penny.
