Button Button Who has the Button?

 
Things to do with Buttons

ID Towels

Sew a different colored button
on a corner of each towel
and  give each person a
specific color.

Make Pretty Magnets

Repurpose vintage or
decorative buttons  from
jackets and sweaters. Glue
a small magnet or flathead
thumbtack to the back of
each, and use them to
hold important items.

Sub for Game Pieces

Have you lost the shoe to
your Monoply game?
Replace it with a button
and carry on.

Pair up Earrings

Push posts through the
holes of a button to keep
pairs together at all times.

Level Furniture

Slip a button under the
shortest leg to make it
stable.

Arrange Flowers

Keep thin stems standing
straight by slipping them
through a button with large
holes. Position the button
under two or more flowers
so thet stay grouped in
the vase.


** Fun Fact

At one time, fancy buttons
indicated social status. Rumor
has it that during his life-
time, King Louis IV  of
France spent over $5 million
(based on today's dollars)
on buttons.
