Oh! Those butterfly feelers…so adorable!

When I was growing up, all the old clothes from 5 kids, or hand-me-downs, had all buttons, hook & eyes, lace, and zippers removed by my mother before she got rid of worn out clothing. I still have her button can and go to it for replacement buttons of every kind. Sometimes I use some thin ones for my junk journal. I have a lace curtain from mom too & it's more lace than I'll ever need. I tea & coffee dye strips of it, or spray pieces with coored dye.

Your "Butterfly-Idea" really flashes me. Using thread and instead of cutting it down, using it like this. That is really creative!!!! I have so many buttons and you really helped me to find a reason for keeping them ;-))) Thanks for sharing your kind creativity with us. Hugs from Holly from Berlin!

Thank You for sharing. This is so cool. My favorite is the button elastic closure at the end. ☺️

LOL! I love that "am I encouraging you to hoard" ... Yes you are, and I'm all about it! 😂

The shank buttons are great on bulb pins. And hang them off the edges of your pages.

Once again thank you Nikki. Not only adding to my knowledge and inspiring me but reminding me of things once known but forgotten. How easy it is for wonderful ideas to fly out of your mind never to be regained unless you’re reminded. I love buttons and beads.

I am making my own buttons using a 1" hole punch and recycled packaging. I will add patterned paper on top and glaze them.

This is some great ideas, you know 😉 I like these videos with crafters sharing ideas with each others without pretending to professionels or perfect, you know 😉 Thank you so much for sharing with all of us. Nette from Denmark

Buttons - adicted. I've been collecting for 40 years.

[kathylinderman]

Just came across this video today. Love all your ideas, especially with the little tags. I have a bunch from another time in my life and I'll enjoy reusing them in this manner. Thanks so much for sharing. I'll subscribe and see if I can find other A-Z videos for more ideas.

I knew I'd recognize when I saw it, the closure I want and the button and elastic string closure is it. I've gotten into a rut of just tying some sari silk strips or ribbon around as a closure. Thanks for the great idea and instructions!

[WhichCraftDoYouDo]

This was awesome! Thank you so much for sharing all those fab ideas, i have recently come into a MASSIVE hoard of buttons so the timing was great! I cant wait to make some of your cute button additions! I have made wired button charms before and i still love how those look to, i have a vid on my channel if you are interested xo
