Hi. Has anyone tried button art? I found a way to dye buttons, as most are either black or white, and i was wondering if there were ideas out there for a group project :)

Prize Walk

I placed numbers on the floor 1-20 in a circle (just like a cake-walk). I played music as the residents danced and walked the circle.
