Tee Shirt Embelishment Ideas-Buttons and Bows

Three toddler tees, embellished with buttons and ribbons

I was organizing my sewing basket the other day and began collecting all the random buttons into a clear zip lock bag.  By the time I finished, I had almost a bag full!  Most of these were the extra button you always get when you buy clothes that use buttons -blouses for me.  Since I had so many different kinds, I decided to use them to embellish 2 of these tee shirts for my granddaughter.  On the white one ,I just made a simple design with ribbon and embroidered daisies I had among my stash of notions. I  hope you like these designs and try them out for yourself, if you also have a bag full of buttons!  (Note: Double stitch and knot each one if you are using it for a child’s tee. You don’t want them to come off!)

Made a bow with ribbon and sewed the button on top.

Found this little embroidered rose in my basket. Used little buttons that color matched.
