I posted this in the Sewing Thread, but thought it might be good to post here as well. I am looking for Vintage buttons, in all colors, 1 inch in diameter. If you have some and would be interested in selling, I would be happy to buy them from you and ofcourse pay for the postage as well!

Until Later,
New Mexico Audrey

Hey Audrey,

You might look at www.etsy.com...I collect vintage buttons and have purchased from different sellers there that have them.

Good Luck,


Stephanie

I have lots of vintage buttons - any particular colors? I could probably spare one-half pound! I will be out of pocket for a few days - in case I don't respond right away- leaving Saturday morning.

Hi Becky.....No particular colors (I need different colors and styles) but I do need them to be about 1" in diameter for a project I am doing. Do you happen to have any that are that size and if so, would you be interested in selling them??

Audrey, I have bunches of buttons, too. My mom was quite the collector. I will start sorting out the 1" ones for you, but I'd love to know what your project is! Besides using them on sewing and knitting projects, I have glued buttons to picture frames, make napkin rings, curtain tie-backs and even strung 12' of buttons for a garland for around my windows at Christmas. And I still have 6 tins of buttons in the basement (I think they are breeding!)
