Turn a Pretty Button into A Easy Bead Embroidered Pendant
This would be really lovely using a lampworked button, but I was asked to use a metal one for the tutorial/demo. For your first try, use a button with holes in it (not a shank button) and a flat back.
Enjoy!

Thank you, Karen! I'll see whether I can get a photo up sometime soon of the technique using a lampwork button...

Will it work if the button isn't round? My lampwork buttons are usually oval, no matter how hard I try to make them round.

Yup. It'll work if its not round. Oval is just as easy. Its a little harder if you have a bunch of bumps on it like this guy:
But with a little bit of patience, you can do those as well...
