On the Martha Stewart site there is a great idea for making wreath ornaments with buttons. If you have small children you can use pipe cleaners instead of wire. I made them last year and they were adorable.
I've included the site below.

This is a great idea. Thanks! I have a lot of buttons I use with scrapbooking so this will be an easy one for us and the kid's love making ornaments each year.

We make artwork with buttons... the kids glue them on paper and make things like flowers and trees. Too cute!
