I have seen these thread based buttons but didn’t know what their name was. Well they are called Dorset buttons. There is a great step by step tutorial on how to make Dorset buttons over at the blog Create Whimsy. Now, I bet there are all sorts of recycled materials you could use as the base ring like the ring on pull tabs of cartons of milk? The tutorial includes how to add beads to the Dorset button and I bet it would be fun to super-size the buttons and use them for embellishments.
