Can't get enough of buttons?

Well, here are more ideas for button jewelries!

It’s funny, but I’m really finding these button accessories so cute. “,) Aside from the fact that they’re so easy to make, they’re also inexpensive and easy to find. I have assorted buttons that has been kept in a jar for so long and for a long time, I don’t have any use for them. But now, that I’m seeing what other jewelry makers did with buttons, I think I need more than just a jar of button for the many ideas that I have gathered from jewelry makers sharing their tutorials for beautiful designs of button jewelries.


The other day, we featured tutorials on how to make button bracelets. We also shared a free video tutorial for a necklace, but I can’t help not to feature this button necklace from...


bugaboo, mini mr & me.



I admire Kimberly’s creativity in making her button necklace. She used various kinds, colors and sizes of buttons and a thin cord. With just simple knotting and stringing technique she was able to make a beautiful necklace. I also love the colors she chose.

You can try and make a button necklace, like Kimberly’s, by following her free tutorial.


Way to go Kimberly!


Okay, we already have an idea how to make a button bracelet and a necklace so now I’m going to share a tutorial on how to make a ring, and this time; it’s not just plain buttons but a glazed fabric button.


From smashed peas and carrots!



See how funky they are?

I soooo love Maggie’s button rings! I can use whatever design of fabric to cover the buttons and that would mean, an endless design for me. That’s simply amazing! So, go on and head over to smashed peas and potatoes and follow herfree tutorial and start making glazed fabric button rings, too!


Now, our jewelry set is almost complete. We have a necklace, a ring and a bracelet from the other day’s post, but there’s only one piece missing and that’s a button earring.


Do any of you have a design for a button earring?


Share it here at Handmade Jewelry Club and help me to complete my set of button jewelry!!!

Let's Play With Some Buttons!


Buttons are for sewing. Yes, everybody knows that, but we can also use it for crafting, like, embellishing your pillow with buttons. A friend o f mine did that. You can also use it as eyes for your handcrafted stuff toys and Rageddy Ann dolls. But there’s one cute thing that we can do with buttons and I love it, we can also use them in making handmade accessories and jewelries.Examples of them are these bracelets from two creative girls, Amber and Andrea! They’re really good at making button bracelets and they will show you how you can do it, too.


Button Bracelet from Aunt Peg’s Jewelry



With Amber’s version of a button bracelet, she used rope cord to string the buttons together. Additional materials you will need are crimper tool, crimp beads, jump rings and lobster clasp.

Amber with her best friend Megan created this cute button bracelet. They had been runningAunt Peg’s Jewelry website in honor of Amber’s aunt, named, Peg. You’ll find lots of creative ideas and nice jewelry designs in their website, including the free tutorial for the button bracelet.


Now, this one looks really cool. I love the colors that Andrea chose for her button bracelet.


INDIGO BLUE’S Button Bracelet



And what’s cute is Andrea used ribbons instead of strings and so the colorful of the ribbon matches the colors of the buttons.






Pink ribbons for pink buttons




















And green ribbons for green buttons








Andrea, who studied Fashion Design loves all things textiles. With the City and Guilds in embroidery and design that she managed in the past, it gave her the opportunity to learn new skills and up to now, she has never closed her doors in continuing to learn more and more new things. One of her cute ideas is making the button bracelet and she’s sharing it to you with herfree tutorial.


Aside from making use of buttons and turning them into a bracelet, you can also make button necklaces. You can watch a free video tutorial from Laura Baillie.

So, we have a bracelet and a necklace. I bet there's something cooking in your mind now and you're thinking about your extra buttons that you have in your sewing box. ",)

Well, go ahead and play with them!
