Button Flowers in Salt Shaker Vase

Red and white button flowers in salt shaker.

Use your button collection to make these funky flowers. Add a vintage salt shaker to hold your bouquet.

Approximate Time: Took me longer to choose the perfect buttons than it did to make the flowers.

Supplies:

  • old buttons
  • floral wire
  • salt shaker

Instructions:

  1. Use as many buttons per flower as you want, but I found that 3 or 4 was the easiest to work with.

  2. Simply thread the wire up through the buttons, one at a time, allowing enough extra wire to bring it back down through.
  3. Then twist the end around the longer "stem".
  4. If you want, you could wrap floral tape around the twisted wire, but I left it as is.
  5. Now poke your flowers into the holes of a salt shaker.
  6. Done.
