Fun Kids Craft
Fab Button Bracelets
What you need:
Ribbons or pipe cleaners
Embroidery thread and needle
A selection of colourful buttons
Step 1: Position your first button
Measure a length of thick ribbon to fit round your wrist (leave a little extra so you can tie it once it’s finished).
Then start sewing on your buttons. Younger children will need some adult help and supervision.
Thread a needle with embroidery thread, tie a knot at the end and then sew on your first button.
Bring the needle up from the bottom, through the ribbon and through a buttonhole.
Then poke the needle through the other buttonhole and back through the ribbon.
Step 2: Start Layering!
Carry on adding as many buttons as you like to your ribbon.
You can add stacks of two or three buttons at a time for extra detail.
Step 3: Tie it on!
Once you are happy with your design simply tie the bracelet round your wrist and wear with pride.
