Button and bead bracelet is so quick and easy to make you will want to whip up several pieces to have on hand for holiday gifts! They do not have a clasp so they are great for people with wrist and hand problems and also for children. You can also use different novelty themed buttons to make them for other seasons.
How cool would it be to give one for Valentine’s day made from heart buttons, an Easter piece with eggs and bunnies. I think there are novelty buttons for almost every holiday or event you could imagine in the Buttons Galore and More store.
When I received the new winter themed buttons I knew immediately they would be perfect for jewelry.
Materials to make the novelty button and bead bracelet:
- holiday themed novelty buttons
- beacon adhesive
- elastic cording
- scissors
Directions to make button and bead bracelet:
I got out some red and green faceted beads to place in between the buttons so the buttons and started stringing them onto elastic cording alternating with three beads between each button.
I checked the placement and once I was happy with it…..
I tied it off and placed a dab of Beacon Adhesives Tacky Glue on the knot, let it dry and trimmed the ends.
