Today, I’m going to attempt to make some art from buttons. I can’t promise it will be any good but at least I will have tried it 🙂
I came up with this idea while sewing eyes on a doll I crocheted a while ago for my crafts page on facebook and I thought I’d make it into an art challenge.
Most people who do some sewing sooner or later end up with a bunch of buttons. I have this big jar of buttons where I put any buttons I find and those from old clothes. That’s what I’m using today, along with a piece of paper.
I’m just going to play around with the buttons a bit to see what might work. You can glue them down if you want to but I have other uses for some of these, so I won’t. That makes this a very temporary piece of art but I’ll make sure to take a picture of it.
Let me know if you have tried or will try this.
I’d love to see what you make with the buttons you have. If you want to see more art challenges, check out this playlist.
