Fabric-Covered Thumbtacks

The idea and instructions for these darling thumbtacks came from Jessica Jones's blog How about Orange. Thank you, Jessica, for an easy, no sew, fast project.

I used 4 sizes of You Cover Buttons for these thumbtacks: Size 20 (1/2"), 24 (5/8"), 30 (3/4") and 36 (7/8"). I literally used fabric scraps. I love the way the fabric changes on such a small surface- sometimes the bigger prints became the most interesting. If you use the Flat back You Cover Buttons, you don't have to remove the wire-eye back.
