Use the wire from a twist tie to secure a broken button.
It'll hold until you can get your hands on a needle and thread. (Beware that this works best on sweaters and cardigans — it could hurt other fabrics). Read more about how to do it here.
Dab some clear nail polish on a button that's ~about~ to pop off, but hasn't yet.
You'll still want to sew it back on securely later, but this will hold things for a day if you're in a hurry. See the full tutorial here.

24 Photos That Are Way Too Real For Book Lovers
Goodbye, bedside table space.
When your bedside table resembles a game of Jenga.
When you order a book online and it's not as perfect as you imagined.
Or when you buy an old book and its pages are dogeared.
This all too common problem:
Watch This "Harry Potter" Book Transform Into A Model Of Hogwarts
No books were harmed in the making of this masterpiece.
A U.S. marketing company has made this stunning stop-motion video, recreating Hogwarts entirely from the pages of a Harry Potter book.
The video's creator, Peter Heacock, told BuzzFeed that he got the idea from watching the Game of Thrones opening sequence.
"I love the intro, but I always thought it would have been better if they actually made it by hand," he said. "After having made this video by hand, I now know why they made that intro in the computer."

The video itself took a month to make, with a lot of trial and error.
"This is by far the longest and most challenging animation we have made to date."
"We had to experiment with glue and paper, and an evolving story line. We messed up a lot. Simple things took a long time," Heacock said. "Lighting the windows, camera movements and making an origami owl fly are actually big challenges."
But before you get a nervous rash about the thought of a beloved Harry Potter book being sliced up, don't worry.
Heacock told BuzzFeed that he bought a used copy of Prisoner of Azkaban. "I wasn't allowed to cut up the family copies!"
