(This tutorial is under construction.

Please return soon to view the completed

assembly guide.)

BUTTONS: Assembly involves simply layering & gluing

the 8 base/main shapes of the version being built

into a stack, matching openings and edges,

layering the 4 rim shapes into a stack and gluing,

then attaching the rim to the base and gluing.

(Use a flat heavy weight to help prevent curling

or warping during the glue drying process.)

The "thread" X shape in the file can be added

by inserting the ends into the button holes

and gluing in place as needed.

For the Frosty hat embellishment,

four strands of no. 5 black perle cotton

were threaded through, ends anchored behind.
