Abstract

This invention is a one piece detachable button cover adapter for converting a plain jean button into a more decorative one. This device is comprised of a substantially flat, circular disc with resilient prongs. An ornamental top is attached to the front side of this adapter and resilient prongs on the back side hold a jean button. The advantage of this invention is that it covers and securely holds a jean button whereas a typical button cover does not. Another novelty is that this adapter does not utilize a cup and/or hinge and therefore produces a more attractive, sleeker button cover that is easy to attach to and detach from a jean button.
