I have put this pom pom dahlia on my blog to show the use of a button with a shank. This flower is quite labour intensive but the end result is very effective. The petals are made individually and then glued onto the flat top of the button. I then thread a wire through the shank to represent the flower stem.

Honestly, I gasped when this picture popped up! It's lovely!
Just like the real thing, it made me want to go and pic it! Wonderful!
I like how you glued the matching fabric to "fill in" the petals. I think that's what really makes this flower special. Thanks for sharing.
Truly an amazing work of art!!! I was totally taken aback when I saw it. So wonderful!!!
