My solution to the lack of Billy Buttons in this country! I made these while watching a movie last night. They are made of small pompoms on stalks of coat hanger wire.
That might not be quite the exact shade but it was the closest one I had and I quite like it. I drew around the base of an empty baking powder tin to get right size for the tool for making the pompoms. I don't know if it is part of the usual pompom making technique but I make one of the inner holes bigger as it is easier to remove the card at the end.
Brilliant!

Brilliant! Now how do you make pom-poms again? I don't think I've made woollen pom-poms since kindergarten!
