As you begin your task of making a button wreath for Easter you first need to place the bigger dinner plate on the cardboard. Trace the dinner plate on the cardboard and cut its shape. Now place the smaller plate inside the bigger one and again trace it out.
Cut off the smaller size in the cardboard. Now you get the base on which you are going to make the button wreath for Easter. Select places where you want to attach the dried flowers. Apply hot glue at the base of each dried flower and attach them on the wreath base.
Press the dried flowers so that they are properly stick to the wreath base. Remember to leave few gaps in between the dried flowers. In between the gaps set the artificial berries. Apply glue at the base of the artificial berries and press them at the wreath base.
Now decorate the wreath base with buttons. Attach the buttons at the outer rim of the base in a line. Apply glue at the back of each buttons and fix then on the base. You can also make circles of buttons around the dried flowers. Remember to place the alternate colors of buttons.
At last apply hair spray on the dried flowers. Make a large bow to make your wreath look ornamental. Fasten ribbon at the back of the cardboard base like a hanger. Hang the wreath in your wall.
