Button, button, who's got the button?
After seeing a friends' post (Hi Talane) on the button earings she created, I thought of some cute button crafts that I have seen. I've made the flowers, but the wreath and tree are on my to do list for the upcoming holiday season. All of these can easily be done with children.

Yay - a prize for me! You are already being a very inspiring Home-Ec teacher - I want to try to make those little flowers into push pins for Brooklyn's bulletin board. Cute!
erynn, this is so great. I knew you had this stuff in you. You should just open your own shop and call it "The Home Ec Teacher" you could do classes and all sorts of stuff. Okay, maybe when you kids are all in school. Start preparing now. This is good stuff, cooking. . .sewing. . .you could do one theme each month. Cool
Hey Erynn this is very fancy! I like it all A LOT. When I finish the other hundred projects I'm working on right now I will definitely do some flowers, I would love those on my fridge with my new green kitchen. The trees are super too! Thanks for the shout out and extra ideas!
