How to make the Christmas cards:

1. Sort through your buttons.

Somehow, I’ve ended up with a pretty big collection of random buttons. I went through and found a bunch of green ones of all different shapes and sizes.

I played with them a bit to get them into a tree arrangement I liked.

2. Glue the buttons to your cardstock.

I’m a big fan of rubber cement. I’m all for hot glue guns, but I hate it when you end up burning your fingers, so I usually reach for rubber cement first.

3. Cut the twine.

4. Glue the twine to the cardstock.

Again, I used rubber cement here.

5. Display your fun DIY Christmas card!

It’s hard to believe we’re getting Christmas decorations out already! When do you start decorating?
