We made Button Jingle Bells. More then an ornament, CJ loved using it for her pretend school.
Materials Used:
Buttons of various sizes
Pipe Cleaners
Jingle bells
Thanks to Craftprojectideas.com for the Jingle Bells
Steps Overview:
Sort out buttons from Big to small
Fold pipe cleaner in half and thread the jingle bell to middle as shown below
Thread each end of the pipe cleaner through opposite holes on the Biggest button. Push the button tight as shown below.
Thread the next smaller button, repeating the steps
When u almost get the shape of Bell, stop threading, leave a inch or 2 of pipe cleaner, and twist the free ends as shown and cut the excess pipe cleaner out.
Hang it on the tree!
