With some of your favorite vintage buttons and beads, you can create beautiful Collage Jewelry that's sure to stand out. Combine various materials to make your own DIY jewelry designs, including pins, earrings, and pendants. With these helpful suggestions from Mitzi Curi, you can have one of a kind vintage accessories that are fun and texturized. Add them to jackets, hats, or purses for a unique and fun look.
Materials:
- Vintage or newer buttons, buckles, and jewelry bits
- E-6000 glue
- Wire cutters
- Pin backs, and/or pendant bails
Instructions:
- Select some large pieces for the bases. These are usually coat buttons or large buckles.
- Start finding smaller pieces to layer on top of the bases.
- If you are using buttons with a shank, you will need to remove the shank with wire cutters so the button will lie flat when you glue it down.
- Once you have decided where you want your buttons arranged, you are ready to glue!
- There is actually a proper way to use E-6000 glue on smooth surfaces. Put a dab on the button, then lay it on the other button or buckle. Slide it into place. The sliding is important, rather than just placing it down. It creates a better bond.
- Affix a pinback to the finished pieces. I added a silver bail to one piece so it can be strung on a cord as a pendant. I have found the pinbacks at the craft stores, but not the pendant bails. I order those from Etsy or eBay sellers.
- Some of the smaller pieces could be made into magnets for memo boards or the fridge. You can buy packages of super strong magnets at the craft

Durkan signed an Executive Order to create the Seattle Promise College Tuition program, which will reduce and remove the ﬁnancial barriers that keep some Seattle public high school graduates from earning a degree, credential or certificate. This action creates a framework for implementation, beginning with expanding the Seattle Promise College Tuition in the Fall of 2018 to provide a second year of college for current 13th Year Promise Scholarship students currently enrolled at South Seattle College.
By 2020, 70% of all jobs will require post-secondary education in Washington State. Yet each year, one in four Seattle graduates do not pursue a continuing education pathway, and among low-income and students of color, this number increases to one in three.
Building off the success of the 13th Year Promise Scholarship, the Seattle Promise College Tuition program will provide two full years (90 credits) of courses for students graduating from a Seattle Public School. As part of the Executive Order, an interdepartmental team in partnership with Seattle Public Schools (SPS) and Seattle Colleges will develop a comprehensive framework and timeline for implementation for all Seattle Public School graduates. This plan will be developed within the first 100 days of Durkan’s administration.
“Mayor Durkan’s Seattle Promise does more than just provide tuition for students – it helps to level the playing field and create greater opportunities for low-income students and students of color. We know that many of the jobs being created in the next several years in Seattle will be jobs that require a degree, credential, or certification, and we want to make sure Seattle’s students are first in line for those opportunities – whether it’s building code or building skyscrapers,” said Seattle City Council President Bruce Harrell.
