Button Magnets.

Last weekend I felt the need to make something but I didn't feel like making anything big. Or time consuming. Which is really kind of a lame thing for me to say because all projects feel "big and time consuming" since I'm not really a crafter, but all the same, I wanted to try my hand at something, just not something that required a lot of skill. (maybe that's a better statement!)

Anyway, my mom has these magnets on her fridge and all they are are buttons of various sizes and colors glued together. Easy enough. Cute. Useful. And something I could do without too much hassle. So that's what I did.

After making a quick run to Walmart to get magnets (gotta love that Walmart is open 24 hours and only a mile and a half down the road!), I gathered up all my spare buttons and Marty's bottle of Gorilla glue and sat down to make button magnets.

So easy. Definitely an "if I can do it, you can do it too" type of project. Only the next time I make them I think I will branch out and use better buttons.
