[@oneword381]

Your button flowers are so cute! So many people could do this project - kids, old folks, shut-ins, tv watchers. Thank you for sharing this idea.

One Word thank you ! I cannot take complete credit as o going my inspiration on Pinterest ! But the fun part is making it your own ! Got some ideas of my own for them to come !!

I just bought a bag of buttons at an estate sale today, and was looking for a craft to use them. Your ideas are so inventive! And you explain things so well. Thank you for your help. Not sure why you don't have a bazillion subs!

[@StephiesBeadsandBaubles]

Thank you so much for your kind words !! I hope to make more videos once I get my two rooms organized and maybe I can attract a few more subs. I just make videos and as long as my current subs are enjoying them, I am happy with that !!! Buttons are amazing and you can do so much with them. Go to instagram and look at button art, it will make your head hurt, lol !!! So many amazing things you can do with them, I hope to do more.

I don't have many buttons but I love them. My mother and mother in law collects them but they don't like to share them. Lol I am in love with these button flowers. Thanks so much for sharing. I'm going to look online and see if I can find any for a reasonable price.

It was on my list of to do crafts for a very long time , it was so fun, I highly encourage you to try it. I got most of my buttons at yard and estate sales and antique shops. You can get some special ones at Hobby Lobby when they are 50 percent off !! Same with the shakers, yard sales, estate sales and antique shops !!! I would love to see what you make !!

You can get the bucket of buttons at dollar tree that you was showing after you found the lid. Really like this idea. Thank you for sharing and God bless 🙏

[@StephiesBeadsandBaubles]

sandra crawford Yes , cheap buttons are easy to find ! I am going to show more materials you can use to make them !!

My flowers are too heavy fior the jar they sit in. How do I secure them ? Place them for place ment?

[@StephiesBeadsandBaubles]

I have not had that problem but you could try putting something in the jar that will add weight and if the jar is clear, it could be pretty to hide the wire. The craft shops sell a lot of fun jar filler type stuff. Also make sure the wire is not too long, keep it a bit shorter and see how t hat helps and kind of balance them as you place them in your jar !!

Hey Stephie. Omg I have all of my grandmother’s buttons and one of her salt shakers. I tell you, you have the best ideas. What gauge wire are you using? Blessings

[@StephiesBeadsandBaubles]

Bev Cote' Thanks !! I am not sure what gauge wire but it is just your standard craft wire / jewelry wire !

[@bevcote2357]

Thanks 20 gauge seems to work real well.

Your hands are in the way.

It is sometimes hard to work and not have an issue but I am always working to do better!
