Button Stamp How-To

Do you ever find “loose” buttons in random spots! Don’t throw them away because you can really use them for a fun craft! I can’t wait to show you this one because it’s a really cool way to show off your unique buttons to the world!

Hope everyone is having a great night!

Grab some corks (again)

Don’t forget your “awesome” vintage buttons. If you don’t have old buttons just use the ones you have. Select buttons with raised surfaces and distinct patterns — fluted edges, stars, flowers, cat’s eyes, and pinwheels.

We can’t forget out glue gun!

With white craft glue, mount buttons on wine or craft corks; if possible, use a cork narrower than the button so you can see to position the stamp accurately.

Then carefully place your button on top of the hot glue.

Buy already inked stamp pads in several colors

Uncoated papers are most receptive to the ink. I just wanted to show you how you need just the right stamp for it to stamp correctly.

I placed the button stamps across from their design. They are just so pretty to look at !

I am seriously in love! Who knew all the different things you could do with good ole buttons!
