Here's a way to turn fabric bits into lightweight, washable buttons (or jewelry, or magnets,...)
Follow the video tutorial for tips on how to best support and resin your fabrics, then choose if you want to drill through them, or insert a button shank in the back.
This photo shows our older drill, now we recommend a Spring Drill for ease and control, but you can also use a power drill if you want to drill holes larger than 2mm.
All of the following buttons have clear button shanks embedded in the resin on the back side:
