Have you ever thought that buttons are not just for clothes? You can use them to decorate a lot of pieces to transform them into some brightly colored ornaments for your home. Here are some original ideas.
Bouquet of flowers
Such a bouquet of flowers will make anyone who enters your home smile. You can make it together with the little ones, so simple it is. You need buttons of many colors or a single color, but different sizes, and thin wire. Pass the wire through the holes of the buttons, overlapping them three or four, then twist the wire ends to create the stem of the flower.
Colored accents for curtains
Are you tired of the simply curtain in the bedroom? Apply at the base a few colored buttons, that are also found in the interior decor of the room. Easy and quickly you brightened the atmosphere!
Decorations for pillows
Fantasy-pillows that you put on the couch in the living room or on a chair get even more interesting if you decorate them with buttons. You can create all kinds of models, such as this funny little tree.
Lampshade
When it comes to lampshade, you have at least two choices. The first would be to sew all around the canvas some colorful and different buttons. The light that passes through the lampshade will become more interesting because of the game of colors created.
Globe
An old globe will become a sensational piece of decor if you dress it with buttons. Use nacreous buttons and black buttons and try to outline the continents with them, so as the piece remembers its initial usefulness.
3D letters
Cut the form of a letter from polystyrene. Can be the initial of your child’s name. Then glue on it buttons of different colors, so as to make a cheerful colorful decoration.
Paintings
Using buttons you can also make original paintings. Outline a silhouette on a thick cardboard and then fill it with buttons. Frame the piece of cardboard and put it where you think it fits better.
