The Day We Decided To Make A Button Bouquet 

 

I decided I wanted to give Button Bouquet making a go, I wanted to make one for myself, for our own wedding. I asked my fiancé to give me a hand, and we practiced and practiced, changing our techniques, and learning new ways to construct them. Through trial and error, until finally we found our own unique way of making the Button Bouquets exactly how we like them. (We've had over a year of pratcice now!!)

 

I loved the idea of having something to keep long after the wedding day is over, something I could display in our home - next to our wedding photo, and one day pass onto our children. Traditional bouquets are beautiful, but I love the idea of incorporating something new and vintage, something with real personality which I could literally keep forever. 

 

I also loved the idea that my bridesmaids could have their own Button Bouquets too, and again, to keep to display in their home if they liked, and they could look at them fondly and remember our special day, and the part that they played in making that day so special too. 

 

So then we thought, if we feel this way maybe others will too, so we started our shop on Etsy. I am from New Zealand originally, and my (now) husband is Irish, so we decided to call our shop Kiwi Clover Crafts. I am the Kiwi and he is the Clover! 

 

Every single person who has held one of our Button Bouquets has said how unique they are, and what a wonderful idea it is, having a bouquet that won't wilt in the heat, that won't attract bees, and it won't give you allergies! :) Something you can cherish long after your special day is over.
