How to Make Your Button Flowers:
These button flowers are really easy both to make as as a quick craft to set up for your children.
Start by cutting a flower shape out of card, card is much better than paper for this craft because it’s able to hold the weight of the glue and buttons a bit better, you don’t want your flower falling apart! Don’t fancy drawing the flower shape yourself? No problem, just grab our free flower template to use with this craft.
If you’d like to add a centre to your flower do so now so using a different coloured card. It’s best to add this before you add the buttons so that you don’t run out of room.
Spread some glue onto the petals of the flower and you can now add your buttons, PVA glue (school glue) works best for this as the heavy weight of the buttons means you’ll need something stronger than a glue stick.

I love button crafts, so simple but look really effective. I think these look amazing and will definitely pin to do with my daughter at some point.
What a lovely idea. I’ve just ordered a big bag of buttons from Ebay to do some crafting with my kids
They’re beautiful – my daughter loves buttons and would love these x x
