Hi Dianne Edwards I'm so happy you liked my DIY! It's a super fun and easy project! Be sure to use a silk ribbon so it is easy to pull through the button holes. Have fun! xo, Michele

[@luvmorrisey20]

[@breakingthread]

Tooooo cute!!! You probably know this by now, but a beading mat is very handy and will keep the buttons/beads from sliding around. Can be purchased from most craft/bead stores for less than $5 depending on the amount in the package and possibly, where you live.

[@BellaBranchDIY]

Hi Laura: So glad you like my video!!! ...and "yes" beading mats are great!!! xo, Michele Laura Fisher

[@anuskabose528]

Please give more videos so that we can get more beautiful necklesses.
