Well, for the Stocking Swap, I saw that the lovely jexxican had a few awesome images pinned, as well as a cool tute for shrinky dink buttons.  I could hardly wait to start.



and




were the final products.  I used paper punches and a hole puncher to get them uniform.  They were SO much fun to make!

I like these!
Here's an idea for you: I make button earrings using the teeny-tiny buttons, jump rings, and earring hooks. These would make a super cute gift for any crafters on your Christmas list! Trust me, they take no time at all to make.

Oh my word.  I know exactly what I'm doing for a ton of gifts now.  Thank you so much for the idea!

I used the white, but I think the clear would work, too, especially if they did colored pencils and colored the whole thing.

You're welcome! I used some rainbow colored buttons to make earrings for my cousin's twelve year old and she adored them.
