Button Ornament

It doesn't have to be Christmas to create a delightful button ornament with plenty of sparkle! We used colors inspired by the peacock... deep blue, turquoise, purple, and green.  All you need to have is a Styrofoam ball, pearlized pins, sequins, ribbon, and buttons.

                             

We used a 2.5 inch Styrofoam ball. First, we painted the ball with a metallic blue acrylic craft paint. This keeps white from peeking through any nooks and crannies. Second, we looped a ribbon using a dab of glue and a pin. Then, using pins we just started putting buttons and sequins anywhere there was space.

So simple! But be sure to have enough buttons and pins, this project takes quite a few.
