DIY Button Jars

With some elastic band and buttons you can easily decorate your jars!

1. Supplies: Buttons, elastic band, a jar and a pair of scissors. 2. Thread the buttons onto the elastic band through the diagonal holes. One idea is to cut a tip at the end of the band making it easier to thread the buttons. How long you’ll make it depends on the size of the jar. When done, tie a knot and distribute the buttons even out on the band and you are good to go.

I was originally thinking of using another kind of band, the one used in elastic bracelets, but this was what I could get my hands on at the moment. There are several other ways to do this, you can also use wire and glue.
