They look so neat. I remember Grandma's button tin. Always fun to look in and play with.
Nancy Jo, how are you doing on your frugality? I think I am not so frugalicious but really need to be. MB

Love your buttons, I love them too.
I remember sitting by my Mom and her Mom's sewing machine while they sewed and going through their button box.
I have quite a few that were my grandmother's buttons.
Some, that were my hubby's grandmothers too. hugs..sheila

I love buttons and I'm fortunate to have my grandmother's button jars. I've also been collecting them for years from garage sales, etc. Your stash looks lovely!

Life should NOT be a jounrey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, latte in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming. "WOOHOO, what a ride!"
