I came up with this idea when I saved a bunch of vintage buttons by cutting them from old,unwanted clothes I found in the garage.So here's a small tutorial on how to recycle round cheese boxes in to something every crafter needs.
You will need:
-round cheese box
-newspaper or an old book
-glue
-decoupage glue
-paper napkin with pretty design
-scissors
Step 1.
Cover the outside of the box with newspaper.
Step 2.
Cut two circles from the newspaper and cover the inside of the box too.
Step 3.
Cut a circle from cardboard and make two holes in the middle.This will be the button on top of the box.
Step 4.
Cut the same size circle from the paper napkin.
Step 5.
Cover the cardboard button with decoupage glue and carefully smooth the paper napkin on it.Push a pencil through the holes.Now your button is finished.
Step 7.
Glue the cardboard button on top and your button box is done! :)
Now you just need to fill it up with pretty buttons.If you want you can decorate the box more with small buttons or decoupage some images on it.Hope you enjoyed! :)
