No comments needed I think. You can see how these button bracelets have been made (using elastic rubber band) and how easy this craft project is. You should give it a try, it’s easy and fun!
I’ve seen several fun ways to make jewelry with buttons online but this was my first try making something with just buttons. Next time I want to try to string the buttons together with wire!
Other projects that I’ve done with buttons are:
- Candle holders
and Mirror frame decorated with buttons! Mom often uses buttons as decorations on her totes, bags and nécessaires.
Go dig through your buttons! Have fun!
No comments needed, but I’m going to leave one any ways ;) Those are SO cute!!! I Love the bracelets!! Very very cute!
Whadda you mean, no comments? They are all really cute projects!! Makes me want to try my hand at a bracelet too :)
I love these! I’m going to try something similar just today, because of you. Thanks!
I really like the candle holder! I am going to try that one next :)
The mirror is absolutely beautiful! And I think the quote you posted is equally awesome - so I put it in my signature line of my emails. Thanks for sharing it!
That’s a great idea with the bracelets. Have to try. I also like the candle holders very much.
Sweet as a button!
I know you said no comments needed but I’m going to comment anyway. :) Those are the cutest bracelets. I love the green one. I love your sweater too. :)
I’m going to have to try the button candle holder. You have inspired me. I haven’t checked in a long time. I decluttered & redecorated this Summer. Missed reading your blog.
Detta gillar till och med jag ;) Vore coolt med knappar av silver att göra armband av.
oh, wow. I just learned to make a wrist cuff, and NOW I want to use BUTTONS!
so cute.
I really want to make one of these bracelets, just have to wait 5 weeks until the cast comes of my broken arm!!!
Lovely post! thanks for the ideas!
I love them. I just discovered button bracelets myself and I’ve made quite a few. My 5 year old grandson even made one for his Mama.
[…] I’ve sewn several bags and totes, a pen case, log cabin pillow cases and hand sewn quite a few patchwork balls! I’ve embroidered free form, crocheted a duckling, covered a outdoor table with mosaic that crackled after just a few weeks and I knitted with hand carved sticks. I’ve glued buttons to a plaster tree, sewn them on a knitted sweater that my mom made for me and also put buttons together as bracelets. I ♥ buttons! I sewed a Flamingo bag (sold), a Mermaid Doll (for a swap with ocean theme) and a few jeans bags with recycled material! Fun fun fun! […]
