Vintage Button Collection

My grandmother kindly gave me her box of buttons that she had stored in her barn! I was so excited to have them and see what treasures were inside. And there were many. Hopefully you will enjoy seeing them as much as I do. Here are a few of my favorites:







Well, we wouldn't want to have "incorrect" style, now would we?  :)











These are my absolute FAVORITE!!



Aren't they fun? I hate to use them because they are like collectible art to me. But I do have plans for a few of them in my sewing projects. For the ones I want to keep, I saw a neat shadow box display idea that might be perfect for this collection. :)  Just another project I need to put on my list!!!
