So I saw this super cute button snake on Counting Coconuts (which is a fabulous blog, by the way) and decided to make a heart button snake for our Valentine's trays. It was incredibly easy to make and I know Sweet Girl will just love it!! All you need is some ribbon, a button, thread, needle and felt.
First cut your ribbon to the desired length (I made mine about 12 inches long). Then either attach buttons at both ends or at one end with a loop at the other end.
Next, cut out hearts from your felt. Cut a small slit in each one to allow just enough room for the button to slip through. My felt is a little stretchy so I cut my slit a little smaller than our button.
Then lace up your hearts!!
Love it!!
I love this! What a great way to practice threading.
