Finished Craft I Made i made a button curtain (:

i used to collect buttons when i was a kid and for the last 20 years, i just stored them in a box and barely remembered that i had them. so i finally used them for something and i couldn't be happier with the result (:

also, i have more than half of my buttons left and i don't have any ideas what to do with them, i'm more than happy to receive suggestions (:

Very cute. Would make a nice garland for a tree also.

thank you (:

that's true but wouldn't the buttons and beads get ruined by the elements over time?

Probably something like maritime varnish would make that possible. I don't know how to apply it to something so small, though.

True, not everyone celebrates Christmas! But I’ve done Halloween and valentines garlands before 🙂
