I found button flowers like these at a fabric store near St. Louis. I thought they were really cute and a great way to use up some of my old buttons.
I used green 20 gauge wire to string through the holes on the buttons...
very cute with only one problem. I found that almost all my big buttons are white! I need to get some large buttons in colors!
This is an easy craft that would be good for young crafters. The only tool I used was a jewelry pliers to cut the wire and twist the stem underneath the buttons.
I am loving it on my table with my black-eyed Susan bouquet.
I will probably take it to my sewing room, I have a shelf it would look great perched upon!

My sisters did something very similar with buttons of my mothers after she passed away. A very cute idea. I have some buttons of my grandmothers that I am going to use!
Thanks for sharing!
I have made the same but yours look cuter. Good Job.
