How we did it:

Materials List

  1. thumb tacks
  2. craft glue
  3. buttons
  4. cardboard
  1. Button Thumbtacks Pin It

    If your tacks came on a piece of cardboard, then you're set! Ours came in a plastic box.

  2. Button Thumbtacks Pin It

    We didn't want any fingers getting poked or tables getting scratched, so we cut a bit of cardboard and folded it in half. We added a bit of glue at the end, to keep it folded.

  3. Button Thumbtacks Pin It

    Maddie dug into our buttons, and started putting together her designs.

  4. Button Thumbtacks Pin It

    She glued those together, then glued them to the tacks.

  5. Button Thumbtacks Pin It

    We let them dry, checking them to make sure they weren't gluing to the cardboard, or sliding off the tacks.
