After last year’s Christmas trees, I totally got into buttons and organized Christmas workshops in my daughter’s class, where we made Christmas cards together. For the purposes of the workshop, I have prepared a video showing how to make a Christmas card using buttons and forming a shape of a Christmas bauble.
Most of the children stayed with cards with Christmas trees, but a few were tempted by my version with a Christmas bauble 🙂

How to make a Christmas card using buttons?
The first step is to prepare the base for the card. To make it look the most attractive on a color base, I glued a white sheet and wishes Merry Christmas. Additionally I framed white sheet with a narrow, golden washi tape.
Then I tried the layout using different materials and color versions.
In the next step I glued all the elements.
Finally, I added a string and a bow.

Nothing gives more satisfaction than doing something yourself. I haven’t even thought about DIY as my hobby, I’ve just done different “projects” when it was needed. Sometimes it’s a disguise for the Masquerade Party in kindergarten. Another time, cutting out the pumpkin and baking the witch’s fingers for Haloween. Or simply organizing holiday souvenirs. Now I decided to share my realizations with you. Let’s go it together!
