Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure

How to make stamps out of recycled buttons

by

I recently have been gifted three types of clay; air dry clay, Super Sculpy, and a clay that will need to be fired. This means that the universe is supporting my interest in expanding my art endeavors into a 3-d medium. I was looking around for ways to embellish the surface and I ran across this tutorial on how to make recycled button stamps at the blog Dabbles and Babbles. If you have a fun tip or tutorial on how you like to embellish clay or craft with buttons send it on in – I’d love to see!
