push pins

My love for covered buttons began about 2 years ago, I would be red in the face if I had to tell you all the projects I have used them for, but turning them into push pins is so simple. Pop the button loop out of the back with needle nose pliers, cover the button and hot glue a tack on the back. I must warn you that once you start covering buttons you will find yourself quickly addicted. If I had a child in school I think this would make a great teachers gift.
