Crochet Button Flowers

 

So cute! I had a pack of 'craft buttons' in my sewing box, a mixture of different shapes and sizes and styles, all variations of red and some of this left over yarn from the bias scarf I made a few weeks ago. With the buttons with big enough holes, I could just crochet through the them then chain 3, do this 4 times and then join up as a ring around the button. Second round, DC 6 around each chain of three and slip stitch to pull petal into shape. 
For smaller buttons with smaller holes I just threaded the yarn through each hole and then used these as anchors for the chain around the button. 

They look very pretty in real life and would make lovely embellishments for hair clips, hair bands, hats etc, or even brooches/wrap pins.
