Vintage Paper Millinery Flowers from Japan...DIY Boutonniere?



 While trawling Ebay for interesting items a couple of weeks ago, I came across these vintage paper millinery flowers from Occupied Japan. I bought them thinking I could use them for something crafty somewhere down the line.

There are three little bunches tied together, and I think they would make great little boutonnieres tied with a bit of shabby chic ribbon and florist's tape.




Or I might just decide to keep them in the little handmade vase I bought in Shigaraki, Japan. I think they look perfect there!
