How to Embellish a Floss Bracelet with Buttons

Looking for stylish button craft ideas? Learn how to embellish a floss bracelet with buttons. For this project from Heidi Borchers, you can create a red, white and blue motif to show off your patriotic side. Use scraps and discards for this fun accessory.

Start by cutting out a circle from a plastic water bottle that has a flat surface. Punch holes all the way around the plastic surface.  Begin wrapping embroidery floss around the circle. You can create a pattern or stay with one solid color. String colorful buttons on the embroidery floss. Pull the string through one of the holes in the plastic and your button should attach. Do this over and over again to create a fun look for your bracelet.
