DIY Felt Valentine Button Covers

January 21, 2011 by Linda Lanese

Martha Stewart we love you for sharing all your amazing crafts for every holiday.   These button covers are adorable and I think that it would be fun for mommy to wear them on Valentine’s Day too.  The secret to capturing a heart is to use a button — at least when the heart in question is made of felt. Create this no-sew decoration for Valentine’s Day: Cut hearts from pink and red felt based on the size of the shirt’s buttons (ours are cut from 1-inch squares). Fold each in half horizontally, and cut a vertical slit, or buttonhole, about the same size as the button. To wear, button up shirt, and then slip hearts over buttons.

    Oh what a CUTE idea.. Wish I had a white blouse. I can also see this would be fantastic with the Accuquilt Go dies and the smallest flower dies.. to make a little flower to go around the buttons. Darling!
