Cute as a Button Bracelet
Spotlight a handful of your favorite buttons with this easy project.
Spotlight a handful of your favorite buttons, vintage or new, with this easy project. Just thread them on wire to create a fun, instant-gratification bracelet!
Steps
Step #1: Design and thread.
Next- Arrange your buttons in a row so that you like the mix of colors and sizes.
- Slip the wire through one of the holes of your first button, back to front, and hold the button about 6" from one end of the wire. Feed the working wire through the opposite hole, pulling it taut so that the button “sits” where you’ve placed it. Repeat with the next button, securing it close to the first one. Add more buttons until your string of wired buttons is about 6" long.
