Halloween Button Bracelets

 The Amazing Helen from Blumenthal Lansing gave me some halloween buttons and I was inspired. These bracelets are bold and fun and not-so-spooky for halloween.

 They are so easy to make, it is crazy. Just start with a yard of cord. I used cotton braiding cord.  Waxed linen would also work. The first button has a loop. Knot the cords together behind the last button. I added a dot of jewelry glue on the knot.


Keep in mind, the smaller the button the smaller the buttonholes. You can use two or four hole buttons.


 Just looking at the back should teach what you need to know to make a bracelet.


To wear it, put the last button through the loop.


This bracelet takes only minutes to make. Imagine this done with Grandma's antique buttons, or layered buttons in bright colors. 


Take your Vitamin C.
And BOO!
