Remember the button? that cute little round thing with the holes? i know you see a lot of zippers around these days, especially on punk clothing but buttons can be cool too! But Sometimes just sewing them on the normal way is boring, so heres an idea to spice up sewing and add some detail and personalization to whatever your making! I've even seen buttons shaped like cupcakes! and they don't have to be expensive either, you can buy a bag of assorted buttons for somewhere between 1-5 dollars and you get like 100 buttons of all sorts of shapes and sizes.
making shapes like this only really works with buttons that have 4 holes though, but as you can see you can make shapes while still sewing through all 4 holes of the button! and you can make different shapes if you turn the button, like and X becomes a +, You can even do arrows and the letter Z.
I think this would be an adorable way to spice up a bag or a t-shirt and even cover small holes along a seam line or in a corner or just sew on like a normal button. its up to you to decide!
