PRETTY VINTAGE BUTTONS

Hello boys and girls! Hope you are enjoying your Saturday so far. Here in Massachusetts we finally got out of the teens and will be up in the mid-30'sF (2C) for a change. But, boy, is it windy!

Another thing that I got from my aunt's house was a plastic craft box full of buttons. Some new, some old. I took out some pretty ones to show you. I just love the rhinestone ones!

Ooh, those buttons are GORGEOUS! I especially love the white flowers. You'll have fun creating with all this vintage goodness.

Hope your weather warms up!

Oh, you lucky, lucky girl! I was just looking at vintage buttons last night on ebay and they are just so expensive now! I would use those on my cards and mini albums for sure!

Enjoy your buttons! As a child I remember emptying my grandmother's button jar and sorting through them. I think it's a universal desire, my daughter does the same thing with mine. (Confession: I just went through mine the other day, too!)

Ooooo, what great finds. I especially like the black swirly buttons. I always try to use vintage buttons in my vintage sewing and for my swing dance stuff. I've recently seen some other ideas for vintage buttons. Thanks for sharing, Keep warm

Love the rhinestone buttons for sure. I haven't run across any old buttons for some time I am looking forward to maybe a country auction this spring
