Found a stash of buttons and thought aren't these delicious looking! Fun, bright and ready to be made into a craft! So I took some floral wire, a handful of assorted Favorite Findings Matt and Felt buttons and assorted Favorite Findings colorful buttons and began making "Button Flowers"
Materials: floral craft wire (gauge should be around 22 - 24)
Favorite Findings Matt buttons (assorted colors)
Favorite Findings Felt buttons (assorted colors)
Favorite Findings assorted mini and colored buttons
assorted ribbon
scissors
1. cut wire to approximately 14 inches. Fold wire in half (form a u-shape)
2. stack buttons - start with a large button, followed with matt and so on until you've achieved the desired look! To achieve above look you will need to make approximately 10 flowers
3. slide buttons onto wire - remember you will begin with your smallest button and end with your largest on the bottom.
4. after your last button is on -twist wire all the way down. Once you've completeed twisting all your flowers, bunch together and tie with ribbon and place in a jar or pot and now you have flowers all year round!
So get out there and start crafting! Visit your favorite craft store and pick up your Favorite Finding buttons!
