I don’t know why I adore buttons so much. Maybe they bring back memories of my mother’s button box I used to sort through for hours.

Did your mom have a button box?

Do you have one now?

We’ve been feeling the button love at the Taylor house. In fact, we recently made three crafts that your kids can make too. I think they would be fantastic gifts for the holidays. See what you think.

Button Bracelets

Weave buttons on a pipe cleaner to make a button bracelet. It’s simple and quite pretty.

Button Flower

Buy a blank canvas for your kids to paint a flower scene, substituting buttons for the flowers.

Button-Eyed Sock Doll

Use a colorful sock. Fill it with stuffing, tying off arms, legs, and a head with rubber bands. Directions here.

What do you think? Aren’t these cute gift ideas?
