Penny Thomas is a local artist who enjoys creating jewelry and other art pieces from antique and vintage buttons. “I am always drawn to the history and energy in antiques, especially handmade pieces. The buttons I use were crafted in the late 19th and early 20th century, each one a tiny piece of art; some are carved glass and others beautifully stamped, and colored metal or brass. I was inspired to create jewelry from the buttons to showcase their unique and forgotten beauty.”
Penny lives in Ardmore, Oklahoma with her husband Johnny.
