  Step 1

  Assemble your supplies. You can use any 2 or 4 hole buttons; I just happened to like this assorted pack. Make sure your needle will pass thru your 6/0 beads.

• 

  Step 2

  On a 3 yard length of floss, thread a seed bead aprox. 5" from the end, and stitch back thru it.

• 

  Step 3

  Add a button to the floss, leaving a little space between it and the bead.

• 

  Step 4

  Add another bead and stitch back thru it.

• 

  Step 5

  Continue adding beads and buttons until the beaded length is 15".

• 

  Step 6

  At 15", leave a 5" gap and string another bead. Repeat the process for another 15".

• 

  Step 7

  Repeat this stringing pattern a total of 4 times.

• 

  Step 8

  Gather your 4 segments together.

• 

  Step 9

  Tie the loose ends together, so that the unbeaded loop is aprox. the same length as the others (5").

• 

  Step 10

  Gather the ends into 2 jumprings.

• 

  Step 11

  Grasp the jumprings and tie an overhand knot in the floss, between the jump rings and the beaded segments.

• 

  Step 12

  Add a clasp to one jumpring amd a chain to the other. With a large jumpring, add a button dangle.

• 

  Step 13

  Admire your sewing skills!
