Here's a super simple project, that, looking back would have looked super adorable with some bold printed fabric. I think I decided on the creme colored because I didn't want to take away from the button though...I'm a sucker for shiny.
I got this fabric for free from some brand new clothes someone was giving away and I've been saving the button for years. Cut a strip out of your fabric, thickness is whatever your preference is, but know that you have to double that because you fold the fabric in half.
Personally I love the rough look of this. You will have one clean edge from where you folded it and one frayed edge. Do a simple whip stitch to secure the rough edge.
Button holes are easy, just nip a little hole where you want it and whip stitch around.

eva mae, it turned out nice. i adore the button. i also like how the gold thread coordinates with your nails. :)
Thanks! I noticed that too when I was putting the pictures up, accidental coordination :-)
Ooh, that's something I can totally do! (I'm a lazy DIY-er). On a side note, love your nail polish. I'm a sucker for shiny as well. (Who isn't?)
