There is somebody who is based in the Isle of White that makes button bouquets if thats any help? Or there is a good website that shows you how to make them yourself if you have the time.

Have you looked on Esty? There are uk based people on there and everyone I have emailed have got back to me very quickly.
Im making my own button one for our flower girl, but now I see why they cost so much, time wise and the general cost.
We have a customer who is making her daughters and its cost £60 in buttons before she has added her broochs.

I have several pieces from this website (and the name makes me :o) and he does commission pieces. All his items are made for recycled bits and bobs and are beautiful. He might be able to help you.

Sorry I'm Scottish so no idea if he is near you in Cambridge!

Oops I should have looked at the other links first. I thought you wanted to make a bouquet out of brooches not just incorporate them with flowers.

Still have a look, he has some gorgeous bits!
