Saw this idea on Pinterest and thought I'd use some of my late mom-in-law's vintage buttons for a table centerpiece. This literally took me about 10-15 minutes!!
I used cut floral wire -- 97 cents at Walmart -- and put it through the buttonholes, wound it around the "stem", wound the stems together, and placed in a 50 cent thrift store vase! What a fun and cheap gift idea. However, this one is staying in our camper since they were Wanda's buttons!

a little vintage, a little whimsy |

these are a memento of Andrew's baptism May 25, 2014, as a reminder to bloom where God plants him (the jar is the one I painted with glue/food coloring) |
