Unusual DIY Button Crafts

Many designer items are made from such unusual components that one can only marvel at human imagination.

Why should we be any different? I suggest spending a little time making some truly unique crafts. You can decorate your home with these items or give them to your loved ones.

Making them is absolutely budget-friendly and doesn't require much time. The main investment is your creative ideas and imagination.

Besides that, we will need buttons, lots of buttons.

## Flower Vase

Take a tin coffee can. Any shape will do, but a round one won't have protruding corners. Glue buttons all over the side surface of the can. For this, choose flat buttons of different sizes. It doesn't matter if they are different colors. Then, paint our vase with spray paint.

## Wall Art

For this decoration, we will need a ring, either wooden or plastic (an embroidery hoop works perfectly).

Choose fabric in two coordinating colors. Cut a bias strip from one. Glue it around the rim of the panel. Another option is to use the embroidery hoop as is. In this case, simply secure the fabric by wrapping it around the larger ring.

Cut a circle with seam allowances from the second fabric. Fold the edge to the wrong side and sew with a decorative stitch.

Create a composition from the buttons and complement it with decorative stitching.

Glue the front piece on, covering the folded seam allowances.

## Candy Bowl

Inflate a regular balloon. Glue buttons all over it. It is advisable to combine them by color so that the finished product harmonizes with the overall color scheme of your interior.

Be especially careful to apply glue to the edges of the buttons, bonding them to each other.

Let it sit for 24 hours until completely dry, pop the balloon, and carefully trim any excess. Coat the inner surface of the bowl with two layers of varnish.
