Crafting is all about creativity, and sometimes, all you need is a little inspiration to see your supplies in a whole new light! Whether you have an ever-growing collection of I Like Big Buttons! goodies or just picked up your first batch, here are three fun and practical ways to put them to use.
1. Quick & Easy Fabric Key Fob Wristlet 🔑
Looking for a simple yet stylish project? Fabric key fob wristlets are a great way to personalize your accessories, make meaningful gifts, or even add to your craft fair inventory!
How to Make It:
- Cut a strip of fabric (approximately 2.25” x 11”).
- Fold and sew the edges for a clean look.
- Attach a key fob hardware set (available in our shop! 😉).
- Secure with pliers, and voilà—you have a custom key fob wristlet!
💡 Tip: Use different fabric patterns and colors to create unique combinations!
2. Button-Embellished Bookmarks 📖
If you love books as much as you love crafting, this is the perfect DIY for you! Adding buttons to bookmarks gives them a playful touch and makes reading even more fun.
How to Make It:
- Using a vibrant fabric, create a flat-back button.
- Glue the formed button to a jumbo paper clip (available in our shop! 😉).
- Add a decorative ribbon or embellishment to the paper clip for extra flair.
💡 Tip: Use your fabric scraps to make unique and colorful bookmarks that make a statement!
3. Custom Bag Tags & Zipper Pulls 🎒
Make every bag one-of-a-kind with a handmade button bag tag or zipper pull! These are great for backpacks, purses, or travel bags.
How to Make It:
- Choose a split ring, a pendant bezel, and a flat-back button as your base (available in our shop! 😉).
- Glue the flat-back button into the bezel and thread it onto a split ring.
- Attach to the bag zipper or handle for a fun, personalized touch!
💡 Tip: Mix different colors and textures of fabric for a standout design!

How-To: Magnetic Pin Cushion/Needle Holder July 13 2022
Supplies:
- 1 Completed Size 75 (1 7/8 inch / 48 mm) Fabric Cover Button
- Fabric Of Your Choice
- 1x Standard Round Magnet (Approximately 3/4" Round)
- E6000, Hot Glue, or comparable adhesive
I Like Big Buttons! - Picture Tutorial Below:
1. Cut your fabric scrap. You will want a circle that is about twice the diameter of your button blank. *TIP* Our All-In-One Cover Button Template makes creating the right size circle of fabric a breeze.
2. Put your fabric piece in the larger assembly tool piece (RIGHT SIDE DOWN). When you look into the tool you want to see the back of the fabric.
3. Glue the magnet inside the back of the Cover Button with Hot Glue or E6000.
4. Place the button front (the domed piece) on top of the fabric. Leave the fabric edges hanging out.
5. Press the cover button edges down into the tool. *TIP* To make it easier on my fingers, I use a sharpie marker to apply pressure.
6. Place the back cover button piece on top of your fabric and button front. *TIP* If the cover button will be subject to repeated tugging from the back, you may want to add a little e6000 adhesive before attaching the back.
7. Take the smaller piece of the assembly tool and with the open side down place it on the button back.
8. Press down. You may hear a pop when the last bit of the button back slips into place. If you take the tool out and the button is not completely secured, just put it back in and press down again. *TIP* I often use a flat piece of wood to apply pressure, again to save my fingers. It also helps to avoid the button back going in at an angle.
9. When you take the small assembly tool piece off, the fabric edges will be secured underneath the button back.
9. Remove the button from the larger assembly tool piece.
10. Tada! Now you have an attractive Pin Cushion/Needle Holder for your sewing room.
