Buttons. If you’re a crafter, you have a jar, a small box or let’s face it, an entire drawer filled with buttons!

Before getting started, I highly suggest sorting your buttons by color. Not only does it help you feel a lot more organized about your crafty mess but it also helps spark inspiration. You’ll rediscover some forgotten favorites!
Pick an initial you’d like to work with. Keep it simple! It’s easy to get ambitious and try a full word and become overwhelmed. Try a single letter first and then work your way up :)
Place buttons on a piece of fabric of your choosing. You can use a scrap piece of fabric, felt, foam, or a precut bunting (you might have an extra from a kit lying around!)
With your buttons in place, glue each button in its position. A glue gun works fairly well but you can also use Elmer’s glue if attaching to foam or felt.
