I have always loved crafting with my children and was absolutely delighted to be asked to review the bead and button company.
I had so much fun choosing elastic and ribbon, card toppers, buttons applique flowers. I chose some cards to decorate too and a star hole punch. I could have spent hours trawling their site looking at all the fabulous crafty items they had.
Gorgeous!
They sell everything crafty from knitting and sewing supplies to jewellery making equipment, gift bags, cutting tools, felt and so on. They have just so many choices of buttons and beads too I could have got quite carried away.
This is what we chose to review.
and here is what we did ….
I sewed a little piece of elastic to the two ends of a piece or ribbon and made a simple hair band.
Then we made somelittle markers for our drinking bottle with ribbon and tape can be used again and again and lets little one know whose bottle belongs to who.
Then we decided to make some simple gift tags with just a little glue and some of the lovely flowers and buttons we had ordered. I think I may try making hair grips with these too.
Lastly my daughter managed to make this gorgeous card.
Oh and then a little later she wrote a story and decorated the paper edges by using her new star stamper!
How much fun have we had!
We still have lots of materials left and we plan to make beady bracelets with the elastic thread next. I found the bead and button company to have great quality products and a good range at excellent value. Well worth a look.
I love the gift tags, I think personalised items are just gorgeous.
It looks like you have had lots of fun! My girls would love this x
Those gift tags are ace and I LOVE THE WAY YOU IDENTIFIED WHICH BOTTLE IS WHICH

OMG buttons are just about my favourite thing in the world!!
Love the headband, so cute.
My girls would have a great time making those gift tags.Something to think about when making teacher’s gifts.
You’ve made some lovely things! I really like those cupcake buttons, and the gift tags are adorable.
I love how adding a simple flower can brighten up a gift tag etc. I must look into get a little stash ready for birthday season
This all looks gorgeous Becky – I love buying this kind of stuff. Also really like the simple headband idea. Might be trying that with Little Miss C soon.
So pretty, what a gorgeous selection of fun things, great for the summer holidays.
I make gift tags just like this with things I have lying around, especially buttons. Lovely card!
