yellow felt wristband with white flower button on woman's wrist Use felt in a bright bold colour to make this simple neat and attractive wristband. If you like you can sew more beads and buttons to bling it up a bit, but the simplicity of just one button is so much more elegant

Supplies:

bright coloured felt
scissors
1 button
needle and thread
optional, extra beads or buttons
fabric glue - optional

Steps:

Cut a strip of felt a little wider than your chosen button and long enough to wrap around your wrist with some overlap.

Round off the ends.

Cut a slit for the buttonhole at one end. This should be about 3/4 the width of the button.

Sew the button to the other end.

If you want a bit of extra bling you can add more buttons or beads.

To add a bit of strength to the band if your felt is quite thin, or to cover up stitches, add a thinner strip of felt to the back using fabric glue.

This is a lovely project for an older child or young teenager.
