Color always adds so much to a home and this is one way to get that! I’m one of those people who likes to see results quickly and the only thing that takes time is letting it dry. The fabric stores have some of the coolest buttons or, better yet, some of the craft stores have them and great coupons too! I’ve even seen buttons sold in bags.
If you’ve run out of art ideas with that heap of buttons, try making this bowl with it! A button bowl can be used to store your kid’s accessories, as a candy bowl or as a coffee table centerpiece. Some people make these by using a balloon, by using the same technique, but both ways work just the same. I’ve old doilies glued to a balloon to make these bowls and they look beautiful! Just let your imagination run wild!
I don’t know about you, but my Mom has thousands of fabulous buttons, so it you wanted to do something more vintage looking you could use some of those old buttons that you or your Mom has been saving for years. I adore these bowls made with buttons, confetti, stones, you name it, the list goes on and on! You can make more than one!
Talk about great gifts for people…this makes a perfect gift that everyone is sure to love! Make several of these while you’re at it, so you’ll have some in reserve, as a one-of-a-kind gift for that someone who has it all.!

These bowls are easy to make and the supplies are very cheap. Button bowls would be a fun craft to make with your kids on a rainy day.
