STEP 1: Place your smaller button on top of the larger button. Thread wire through the holes of both buttons.
STEP 2: Turn buttons over and twist wire tightly to secure. Trim ends and tuck into one of the holes to hide sharp edges.
STEP 3: Glue a jewelry bail to the back of the large button and let it dry completely.
STEP 4: Cut ball chain {or other chain} to your desired length. I usually go with 18″. Thread it through the bail and add closure piece.

That is so cute. I have made jewelry with my daughter but I learned a couple of new things reading your tute. Like what a jewelry ball is and also that there is jewelry glue. i know….duh. I think I might try this with some vintage buttons. Wouldn’t that be cute? Thanks for posting the tutorial. Visiting from It’s Overflowing. Blessings!

I’m new to crafting and really like this necklace. I am not familiar with a jewelry bail. How large is the one used for this tutorial?
Thanks
