How to Make Wire Bails for Button Necklaces

Posted: 11 Aug 2011 04:00 AM PDT

One past tutorial I wrote was how to wire in a simple Swarovski button on a neck wire.  It's suitable for those who prefer understated styles. 

But I also like Destri's fabric  button necklace tutorial. It's fun and summery. She wired in several lovely buttons for her necklace. The fabric store will have button making kits if you are inspired.

Cyndi over at the Beading Arts blog has a detailed tutorial on how to make a special wire bail for a button combined with a wire extension for hanging charms. Neat!
