Plastic buttons
La pasta es plástico.
In modern clothing and fashion design, a button is a small fastener, now most commonly made of plastic but also may be made of metal, wood, or seashell, that joins two pieces of fabric together.

button made from a wooden-like material
I find this one difficult to translate as I knew 'pasta' as a food. After checking in my dictionary I found that it could also be a substance coming from a wooden or paper pulp, like the material used to make the covering for a hard-back book.
Example sentence:
Cierre con botones de pasta ocultos.
It fastens with hidden wooden buttons.
