I PM'd you for the pattern - Thank you. I also had a button collection from my mother. I had foot and knee surgery so made "button bouquets" while I was sitting. Used small vases, containers from the thrift shops, florist wire, and lots of buttons. I glued in the stems and added "marbles" or stones around the base.I They were all one of a kind and gave them to friends, relatives. That pretty well wiped out the pretty buttons but still have a few.
