My little creative person has been screaming for some attention lately.
So I decided to scope out my Crafts Board on Pintrest and look for anything
that would satisfy my creative itch.
I found This Pin and decided to try it out.
If you want to try it out yourself, you may find the tutorial through the link.
However, I didn't follow that tutorial, I simply went from the picture.
So here's what I did:
- I laid out the buttons I wanted in the arrangement I wanted. (as seen in the picture above)
- I then transferred the design onto the background fabric, which for me was denim.
- I fired up the hot glue gun and put each button into place. (My design changed slightly as I put them together permanently.)
- I then cut out the buttons from the extra fabric.
- Using needle and thread, I sewed the chain onto the background fabric of the necklace.
My necklace turned out like this, and it's kinda fun. I think I like it.
But I didn't stop there.
I made this necklace from old earrings and extra chain.
Then I decided that three is a charm and I made another one.
Even though the second two were afterthoughts, I like the second necklace I made the most. I see myself wearing this one a lot.
All in all, it was a good night and my little creative person is satisfied, for now.
