    Just thought I would update.. I'm having button bouquets made from Liza at Letters4Lilly in Australia, and she has just started to make mine!

    Here's some of the stems she has made so far on my bouquet..

    those are beautiful!
    ive started to make mine, though im toying with the idea of having the buttons mixed with real flowers. Do you think this will work?
    my button holes are coming along nicely!

    :) thanks, the reason I liked this button bouquet was because it had the silk flowers in it as well. I think it could be possible to make them with real flowers, it would look fantastic.. if you could make sure that the weight of the buttons wouldn't damage the flowers. x
