Many of us have some sort of button collection. So here are more tutorials to inspire you to use up your stash! If you'd rather NOT use buttons, remember Swarovski has all sorts of two hole beads for the extra bling factor!

Necklaces
One of the easiest ways to make a button necklace is demonstrated by Yellow Blackbird's funky Retro Button Necklace Tutorial. I am planning to make one for myself!

I really like how Jolie over at the Handmade in Portland blog interpreted Susan Beal's button necklace tutorial (Update link no longer works). She in effect used buttons as connecting pieces. 


Petronella Luiting's adjustable button necklace tutorial on the Craftwerk.ee site is a model of understated button charm!


The Lilly Pilly blog has a really pretty layered button necklace tutorial to inspire!


 Little Miss Momma is a button hoarder. She certainly put her lovely collection to good use with this button bib necklace tutorial!


Nikki, In Stitches' basic button necklace tutorial has so much potential to change up the buttons and colors for unique designs!

She also has a video version :



Bracelets
The Frugal Living's button bracelet tutorial demonstrates how to make a loop and button closure.


Lillyella's button bracelet tutorial is very different and much easier to put on and take off as the buttons are sewn onto sewing elastic!


Queen M put together her button bracelet Cut Out and Keep by piercing a heated needle through the buttons to create holes for jump rings. She probably did not have large jump rings to take advantage of the buttonholes. Still, it must have been fun to make "buttons by candlelight"!


Earrings
The Beading Daily's Wire Jewelry Button Earrings tutorial shows a butterfly pair but any decorative 2 holed button will do!
