Crafty or Just Cheap?

The pictures are in the wrong order, I'm not too worried that you'll get lost. I found a tutorial using buttons and crochet to make a necklace. I love buttons!!! I love cool necklaces!!! I hate paying for a pattern!

This is my first attempt at replication. Not a success, but now I can think it through and try again. This is just chain stitch and picking up the button every ten stitches. I have to figure out how she stitches each side to hold the button so it doesn't twist. I'll try again tomorrow after I cruise google for some ideas.
