Last time my mom was up visiting,
she brought me a tin full of old vintage buttons,
because I think every mom has a tin of old buttons, do they not?
I know I do!
I've been wanting to do something with the buttons but wasn't sure what.
This vintage button tree canvas is what I came up with.
It's easy!
Let me show you how!
I picked up these two small canvases at a garage sale this summer for a quarter a piece.
You can't go wrong with a blank canvas.
I sorted through my buttons
{even found a cool vintage wooden button in there}
and I picked out the ones that I liked and that would make a nice pattern.
Not one to leave a canvas blank, I decided to cover it with sheet music.
I used mod podge to cover the canvas and then let it dry.
Once the canvas was dry,
I used my glue gun to attach my buttons.
I used some ink to distress the edges of the paper
and found a brown ribbon to create a hanger.
