Most of the buttons are made with jump rings, but the green/red rose has two holes. These buttons are going to be sold at the Mary's Shelter fundraiser in downtown Fredericksburg. |
Here's something new for me- making buttons! I was in need of some new buttons for my summer dress and one button for a toy that lost it's button. After looking up some online tutorials, I set to work using some canes I had already made. These buttons were super easy and would be a fun activity for older kids too.
You wouldn't have to use canes with designs in them. You could just make buttons of different colors swirled together or put polka dots on them- etc.
Just in case you're wondering, these polymer clay buttons don't get damaged when put in washing and drying machines. This dress was washed with the buttons on it and came out just fine.

Amazing. You are amazing. These would be great for knitters, too, Sarah. When you are back to marketing your work.
