BUTTONS!


Buttons, Buttons and MORE buttons! Come stop by and see our large selection of buttons in our Bulk Button baskets.

Here is a fun and quick craft that will keep your kids busy.

WHIRLIGIG

You will need a large button with holes and a string with the loop as long as your shoulders are wide.

*Thread the string through the button holes and tie the ends to make a loop

*Hold the ends of the loop so the button hangs in the middle between your hands.

*Swing the button around in one direction to wind up the string.

*Once your string is wound up, start to quickly pull both ends of the loop outward at the same time. Keep moving your hands together and apart to get the button to spin.
