Some words about Lake Baikal

I would like to tell about lake Baikal. It is very large and deep lake. The water of the lake is cold and transparent.
Beautiful nature of lake Baikal invites to visit its shores.


























There is Hamar-Daban mountain near lake Baikal.















 The natural stone wall in Sayan mountain






















Lake Baikal freezes every winter. And we can walk and drive over the ice.



























































March is cold in this year and I am waiting a warm spring!

Hello!
There are pictures of handmade larch buttons. I  named this set "Wild style". Buttons have three holes of each. It is small pretty original button. Each button is unique because each tree (or part of tree) is unique. So I can make 4 or 8 buttons which will be very similar but they will be not identical.













This is set of handmade larch buttons too. I named the set "Baby style". Buttons has two holes of each. And those buttons have not dark edge.












Oh. I would like to show you some larch billet. It will be a future button. It hasn't holes and it's unrefined billet.













Poplar buttons for example



See you later )




There are ones of birch handmade buttons. You can see moment before sewing buttons over paper packing.

Good day. Today is sunny in Siberia. The sky is becoming more blue.
Lake Baikal in the ice. 












I got over new level  - I started design a future packing for my wooden buttons.
I think that you will agree with my opinion about the layout packing. There are three versions:


Good















  

Better

Spring has come. This is a great time for new beginnings. I started produce of  beautiful small wooden handmade buttons. Each the button is produced from environmentally friendly material - natural wood. Raw material I take from forests near the lake. 
I think that the idea about button's producing appeared in my last weekend's walk in the mountain. Siberian forests in the Sayan mountians is so beautiful that I decided take the part of some tree and make keepsake for my friends. I supposed that small wooden buttons will be very useful and great suvenir from the Lake Baikal.
I had thinking that it's will be very easy, but in reality it is a very hard. It is long and laborious process.
I will be share my experience and some news about my buttons in this blog.
