Make a Flirty Summer Button Necklace!! {tutorial}

I am so excited for Summer! 

Hopefully the warm weather will come to Utah sometime soon.

{It has been snowing here this week.}

In the meantime, I made a few Summer necklaces. 

Here's the first:

Flirty Button Necklace

I love the white and turquoise color scheme. 

It seems so beachy to me!!

If you want to make one here's what I did:

Supplies:

Cotton Fabric (I used a Dollar Store Flour Sack}

A couple other fabric scraps

Felt

Buttons

Covered Button Kit

Hot Glue Gun

Ribbon

Scrapbook Brads

Here's what I did:

• I cut out a felt bib form -- about 5 inches wide by 3 inches high.

• Then I made a couple fabric flowers. Nancy from My Blonde Ambitions has a great tutorial on how to make these.

• Once I made the fabric flowers. I laid the flowers, buttons and brads on the felt template until I liked the way it looked. Then I glued the flowers, buttons and brads on the felt.

• The last thing I did was glue two pieces of ribbon onto the back of the felt half circle.

Super easy!

And I love the flirty look of the necklace. 

Perfect for Summer
