Button Necklace DIY- Whitney Sews

[Wela143]

I am definitly going to try my hand at this, I love watching your tutorials, makeup videos get so boring after awhile. You my dear are very creative keep up the great work : )

[AudySarah1]

i didn't catch the part when she said "my necklace is not as sturdy as i wanted to be"...what should i do if that happen?

[aglanceatmyworld]

@AudySarah1 It was the first half that wasn't as stable because my wire was on the thin side and I didn't go through thoses buttons enough. To fix it I just went back through each of the buttons a time or two and it fixed it. The necklace is sturdy now :) Hope that helps!

[AudySarah1]

@aglanceatmyworld ooh thank you! i like your necklace so much,I'll try making for my own XD

[shyroslan2PMBLAQ]

[jetty17]

hi can I use a thread instead of a wire??

by the way i love your button necklace tutorial....

[aglanceatmyworld]

@jetty17 One person commented a day or two ago saying they've tried thread before and it wouldn't hold it's shape and looked reall bad. I think wire is the only way to keep all the buttons in place

[pirategypsyfyre]

@jetty17 If you want to try thread you might have better luck if you sew the buttons to a piece of felt.

[cantfiteveryheart]

What is that beautiful song I hear in the background?

[aglanceatmyworld]

@cantfiteveryheart It is Look Busy by Kevin MacLeod :)

[cantfiteveryheart]

@aglanceatmyworld I love it, and I cry with tears of joy when I hear it, thank you.

[LoriHulstine]

I love it! Awesome look. I've been wanting to do make a button necklace for a long time. This video has totally motivated me now. Thank you for sharing. :)

[aglanceatmyworld]

@LoriHulstine Thanks! You should totally make one then send in some pics, because I know it will look awesome :)

[Tammerajean]

GREAT! Video! You are adorable. Thanks for donating to LoL! Have you seen the video about LoLon HBO?

[aglanceatmyworld]

@Tammerajean Thanks!  I haven't seen the video...

[HealthyHoopers]

love it!

[MissJen27]

WOW, what a great idea! and in time for christmas presents!

[jcrefasi1]

I love the necklace. I have a stash of buttons from my granny that I need to dig out. There are lots of large mother of pearl buttons that would be beautiful with any other colors. I have some 3/8 inch velvet ribbon I thrifted that I will use instead of chain. Thanks Whitney

[silverbracelet6]

Ah see yeah, when I did this before I used thread... and NOTHING stayed in place... wire is a MUCH better idea:)

[silverbracelet6]

@silverbracelet6 P.S. I'm also growing my hair out to donate:D I still have a ways to go, but yay!

[LetiLaFlaca]

OMG!!!! Did you seriously cut your hair??? Gah!!! LoL. No really.... It's cute!

[YenieD13]

Totally love it

[PianoForteDesigns]

[TheMrkate]

CUTE!

[aglanceatmyworld]

@TheMrkate Thanks!

[MarieS6060]

How pretty, I really like it!

[Trayne1837]

Great new haircut... BTW... you are so smart and clever.. I really am glad you did this tutorial. I have so many old and pretty buttons and feel in love with the ones on Etsy, but... couldn't see buying them... I just knew someone would come up with a video on making them...THANKS

[37divacici]

Wow, I would have to try and play with this design to see what I come up with.Love it!!!

[PinkWeeds]

I think I would have just hot glued them onto a piece of felt as the wire would be a bit uncomfortable and could possibly jab and poke you.

[aglanceatmyworld]

@PinkWeeds If done right you can't even feel the wire and both ends are carefully turned under and tucked in. I really wanted the wired look, but I'm sure hot glue and felt will work as well.

[Squishytrishy]

Love, love, love you hair! So flattering. Oh, and I really like the necklace too :)

[aglanceatmyworld]

@Squishytrishy Thanks :)

[deelightfulco]

OH Whitney, I have 3 little yorkies, one a teacup size which is under 3 lbx. They don't come sniff, they just jump in the middle of my lap if i am sitting or in the middle of my projects... what can you do. I love their attention, so i sketch it, or take a picture, or climb a ladder... lol Love your shows and congrats on giving your hair away. I am growing super long and plan to donate in about 1 more year...dee

[aglanceatmyworld]

@deelightfulco Aww :) Sometmes Annie shows no interest in my stuff...but other days she walks back and forth across everything! So awesome that you're going to donate your hair too :)

Thank you again you are so sweet. That look really does frame your face perfectly.

[jatoha]

Oh, I was expecting the buttons to be glued together, but I like this way much better! It looks really great! BTW: I love your hair, it's really cute!

[aglanceatmyworld]

@jatoha Hehe I try to avoid glueing things together whenever possible...I like to make sure the things I make will last :)
