I presented already several wire rings, but I’d never have come up with the idea of making wire buttons myself.
I like the buttons very much :)

Buttons from Rings
I find it interesting how easy it seems to be to make dress matching buttons from simple rings.

Beaded Shank Button
Many pieces of jewelry like necklaces or bracelets need some kind of closure. Purses do, too, journals perhaps. Maybe you crochet an iPod cozy that should be closable.
You can use pre-made closures (which I mostly don’t like), but you can make a self-made shank button match just as you like.
For my bracelet bracelet *Little Black Dress* with the beaded spiral bead I made such a shank button and it worked out really fine.
