Spring Craft Tutorial: How to Make a Button Bouquet

What I love most about this project is that it uses up random leftover buttons that you don’t have much use for.  You can use any size or shape, and bring it all together to make something lovely.  The perfect combination of using the contents of your junk drawer to make a simple decoration.
