You could make the Cover Buttons into fabric cover button earrings with our Earring Supplies and it could double as a gift and Christmas Card.
Supplies:
- Flat Back Cover Buttons (I used Size 20, Size 24, and Size 30 Cover Buttons)
- Cover Button Assembly Tools
- Cover Button Templates
- Fabric Scraps
- E6000 Adhesive or Hot Glue
- Sharpie Permanent Marker
- Card Stock or Pre-Made Card
Instructions:
1. Cut your fabric scrap. You will want a circle that is about twice the diameter of your button blank or use one of our handy Plastic Cover Button Templates.
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. Place the button front (the domed piece) on top of the fabric. Leave the fabric edges hanging out.
4. Press the cover button edges down into the tool.
5. Place the back cover button piece on top of your fabric and button front. 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.
6. Take the smaller piece of the assembly tool and with the open side down place it on the button back.
7. 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.
8. 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! First step complete.
11. Using a ruler, I made 8 straight lines of varying lengths. Then I drew a bow on top of each and a small ornament top.
12. Then in your best print write Merry Christmas. How else doesn't like their own handwriting :P ? I need to practice my pretty cursive more often.
13. I think it turned out lovely. You could also make the Cover Buttons into fabric cover button earrings with our Earring Supplies: Earring Posts and it could double as a gift and Christmas Card.

Christmas Gift Idea #2: Key Fob Wristlets @ ILikeBigButtons.com December 02 2021
- 11"x2.25" fabric strip (of your choosing)
- 1" or 1.25" cotton webbing (depending on Key Fob Hardware Size)
- Heat N Bond or Fusible Tape
- 1" or 1.25" Key Fob Hardware set
- Key Fob Hardware Pliers
- Sewing Clips
- Fray Stop
- Sewing Machine
- Iron
2. I made a template out of chipboard that was 12"x1.25" to help me achieve a consistent size and look. Fold in and iron the fabric to 1.25" wide.
4. Remove Heat N Bond backing and turn finished Fabric Strip right side up and iron to Cotton Webbing making sure to center it.
5. Stitch along the edge of your Fabric strip, securing the edge onto the webbing. Work slowly, keeping close to the edge. Go the whole length on both sides.
6. Fold the Cotton Webbing in half, right sides facing out and match up the ends. Secure with Sewing Clips and stitch the ends together with a zigzag stitch. Trim any loose threads and lightly coat the end in Fray Stop or equivalent liquid to help resist fraying over time.
8. Using your Key Fob Hardware pliers squeeze the Key Fob Hardware closed a little at a time. I like to go back and forth a couple times so that I don't over-crimp one side too much.
9. Add the Key Ring and Yay!!! You are done. Good Job!!!

Key Fob Wristlet with KAM® Plastic Snaps Tutorial @ ILikeBigButtons.com October 18 2021
Thanks to my I Like Big Buttons! Facebook group for help deciding on which color KAM® snap to use on my latest project. I went with G90 - Bright Celery because I love the pop of color that it adds to the project.
I have been wanting to make a Key Fob Wristlet for a while with a KAM® Plastic Snap accent. Not only does the KAM® Plastic Snap add a bit of pizzazz to my project but it is also functional. I can wear the wristlet on my wrist or snap it to my purse strap for safekeeping. No more digging around in my purse to find my keys.
Supplies:
- 12" x 5" Fabric of your Choosing
- 12″ x 1" Piece of Fusible Fleece or 12" x 5" Fusible Interfacing
- 1 Key Fob Hardware and Split Ring
- Key Fob Hardware Pliers
- Sewing Clips
- Standard Sewing Machine
- Fray Check
- KAM® Plastic Snap
- KAM® Hand Pliers & Awl
- Pendant Bezel Trays in 23 mm (Size 36) or 38 mm (Size 60)
- 1 Completed Flat Back Fabric Cover Button (Attach size 36 (7/8" - 23 mm) or size 60 (1 1/2" - 38 mm) flat back cover buttons.)
- E6000 or comparable adhesive
1. Cut a 12" x 5" section of Fabric of your choosing and 12" x 1" Fusible Fleece.
2. Fold and iron the Fabric in half with the wrong sides together.
3. Unfold and iron the Fabric in half again long sides to the center. Iron Fusible Fleece to the left or right center column of the fabric, depending on how you want to fold it.
4. Fold over and iron about 1/2" of the fabric in on each of the ends so that when you sew your way around the strip you will create a finished edge at each end.
5. Use your Sewing Clips to pin the Wristlet flat. It will look like this when you get done.
6. Stitch along the edge of your Fabric strip, I stitched 1/8" in. Remove the Sewing Clips as you go. Work slowly, keeping close to the edge and as straight of a line as possible.
7. Continue all the way around the band, stitching 1/8" from the edge.
8. Using the Awl, poke a hole through for the snap about 1/2" in from the edge. Do this at each end.
9. Install the KAM plastic snap cap and socket on one end and the other KAM plastic snap cap and stud at the other end. One will be facing up, and one will be facing down so that when they snap together they look like the above picture.
10. Snap KAM plastic snap together and decide where you want the snap on the wristlet. I decided I wanted it to be closer to the Key Fob Hardware than not.
11. Make sure that the Fabric Wristlet is centered. Using Key Fob Hardware Pliers squeeze the Key Fob Hardware closed with gentle pressure. Sometimes, I go back and forth from left to right added a little bit of pressure to each side until it eases together. Our Key Fob Hardware Pliers make this easy to do.
12. I wanted to add an extra bit of embellishment to my Key Fob Wristlet, so I made a quick Cover Button Pendant. Follow these instructions to make Flat Back Fabric Covered Buttons.
13. Carefully apply E6000 to the inside edges of the Pendant Bezel.
14. Press the assembled Fabric Cover Button into place.
15. Let dry for the recommended time, add a necklace or cord as we did, and enjoy.
