DIY Button Earrings are a fun and fast project that anyone can create.
So often earrings make an outfit, don’t you agree? Those small touches from a simple accessory often complete the look for apparel. DIY button earrings are my favorite fashion accessory and they are light weight too and don’t hurt my ears. I always receive compliments while wearing my button aisle earrings no matter what social gathering I attend.
Guess where you are going to find these fun pieces of fashion?
Button Choices
-
The button aisle of your favorite fabric shop is a great place to start.
-
Recycle buttons from favorite clothes.
- Buttons from loved ones garments
Memory Makers
Cute buttons from clothes outgrown by kids or buttons from garments from loved ones who have passed are great memory makers and make those DIY button earrings special.
I enjoy creating DIY button earrings because they are inexpensive and a creative way to add a personal flair to a favorite outfit.
So the next time you need to find that perfect pair of earrings to complete a look then try making your own DIY button earrings rather than searching in the jewelry section at a retail store.
Here are the supplies that should be gathered to create button aisle earrings:
