fabric covered button {diy}

This is seriously easily.

My tutorials always are and I feel so silly putting them up, but I like to share!

3 Supplies are all you need for this project:

-Cover Button Kit-

-Scissors-

-Scrap of fabric (about 2"x2" no less)-

I purchased my button kit at our local sewing center for under $3

(you can totally find these online for cheaper, and with more buttons!)

To make a button you will need the white and blue parts of the kit,

one button front and one button back.

Next place your button front with the round edge down, over your scrap of fabric.

Take that piece and place it in the white part of your button maker,

with the edge of the material sticking out.

Then trim off excess, allowing about about 1/4 to remain and be shoved into the button back.

(first tucked in)                                        (after trimmed)

Take your fabric, tuck in all the edges and place back (with loop facing you) into the button.

Then take the blue part of the kit with the hole side down, press them together.

Fyi you will probably need to squeeze, more then press!

Um, that's it.  Stupidly easy right?

So perfect to create button rings, add to hair flowers, even for your own apparel creations!
