I finally got a bulletin board for my badge/button/pin collection. It will be way easier than digging them out of drawers when I want to wear them, and now I can look at them too. Sorry about the crappy lighting. I will take some more pictures if the sun ever comes out again... :(
5. Next is the wire, I start at the tail end and either coil it or twist a small loop so that it has a finished end. You can leave the loop as is or use it to attach a charm or something similar.
6/7. Start adding the buttons with the first button at the tail end by threading the wire from back to front and then back down in the opposite hole. If the button is one with four holes, start the same and then just come back up in of the empty holes and back down the opposite again. It is just like sewing a button.
8. As you add more buttons, always start them from back to front. Each time I add a new button, I like to flatten the strand before taking the wire back through so that I can make sure I don't have any gaps.
