Framed Button Heart {Getting Crafty}

This week we got a little crafty {totally out of the "norm" for us}. We do a lot of baking in our house but when it comes to arts and crafts, sewing, putting things together with our own hands, it just doesn't happen. Who would have thought this simple craft project would totally changed my way of thinking. I don't have to be an artist or seamstress to do these things with my kids. We'll learn together {and probably laugh A LOT along the way}! I treasure those moments I can spend one-on-one time with my daughters. Sometimes I need to remind myself, everything else can wait, family comes first. My kids are growing fast and if you don't take the time now, I might not get that chance again. Gosh, I never intended this post to turn into a cry-fest {as tears run down my face}.
Framed Button Heart {Under $5.00}

Pin It
Don't get overwhelmed by all the photos. I'm a photographer so sometimes it gets the best of me. {I seem do better visually that verbally.}

Here is what you need:

• Frame {you can get from the dollar store}
• Buttons {we purchased from an antique store for $2.00}
• Fabric {we used an old scarf from the antique store for $1.00 or burlab fabric would work}
• Cardboard {we cut an manila folder in half}
• Hot Glue Gun {any super glue would work}

First we spread everything out and warmed up the glue gun.

 Opened up our piece of material, put the piece of cardboard in the center and

cut around the cardboard, leaving 2" of extra fabric around each side.

We then used the hot glue gun and glued the fabric around all the edges. 

{Yes I burnt my finger!} Our first laugh of the project. 

 We then opened the frame, removed the glass, inserted the fabric covered

piece of cardboard, and put the frame backing back on.

 Then the fun crafting started. I had my daughter Charlie (age 6), choose any

buttons she wanted to use and make an outline of a heart in the center of the frames opening.

We chose pink since this was a Valentine's project.

Once the heart outlined was created, I had her start filling in the middle.

 She was so engrossed this project. I loved her attention to detail.

 After a little rearranging, the heart was complete.

 Then I stepped in with the hot glue gun and began gluing the

buttons down exactly where she had placed them.

 Charlie is just as particular as me, she corrected every millimeter I was off. Again we

were laughing hysterically until we both couldn't talk and tears we running down our faces.

 And voila, our master piece was complete.  Miss Charlie was so proud of her work

{as she should be, it turned out beautiful}.

It now has a permanent spot in our living. The heart is a constant reminder of the love of our family and for me personally, to take more time for the little moments.

And for all your not-so-crafty moms like myself, I hope this was found helpful.

Now let's go get our crafty on!
