Button tins and button boxes were very common when I was growing up. My mom and my grandma would always have a button tin and a needle and a thread with her whenever she travelled far. But I know that has changed now.
But, what it has done is - leave us with a ton of button of different shapes and sizes which are of no particular use to us.
And, I've figured out a creative way to use up buttons. And trust me - I realize, I dont have many buttons, only when I started working on some button crafts.
Button Crafts are simple buttons of different shapes, sizes, and colors that you get to add up together in a canvas to make a gorgeous piece of art.
