You won't need a green thumb to make this sunflower-style porch decoration burst with vivid color -- just a plateful of favorite buttons.

Instructions

1. Start by snipping triangles from the rim of a large yellow plastic plate so that the edges look like flower petals.

2. Next, invert a dessert-sized white paper plate, center it on top of the yellow one and glue it into position.

3. Once the top plate has dried in place, glue on buttons of various colors and sizes, enough to cover the white surface.

4. Attach a loop of thin ribbon to the back of the yellow plate near an edge (you'll use this as a hanger). Finally, glue on green ribbons (about 2 feet long each) so they fly from the bottom.
