Just a few of my recent favorite finds


Thought I would share a picture of a few of my favorite thrift store button finds. Got a bagful for $1, and these were my favorite out of the bag. Don't know if these are real mink or what, they do look like real fur though. Aren't they pretty?

Oh, I LOVE those mink buttons....I have my Mom's mink stole that Dad gave her in the 1950's. It's really pretty. I like the other buttons too. :0)

I'm glad to finally be able to leave a comment here...I don't know if it's just been me or everyone but the *comment* section has been missing... :0)

Have a great day and do come by for a visit!

These are gorgeous buttons - I love anything with sparkle!

Can you help me please? I would like to join this group but can't seem to find an e-mail link to e-mail my request. Could one of you kind ladies point me in the right direction please? (I realise the group is full at the moment but I would like to join when there is a vacancy.)

Thanks so much!

Those are gorgeous. Each one has so much character.
I wanted to let you know some big news. My blog has moved to www.itssoverycheri.com
Please come over and RE-SIGN UP to follow me at the new site. Google does not allow you to take your followers. If you have already found the new site-sorry for the confusion. I am trying to go back and forth between the old blog and the new. I am super close to closing down my old blog.
I also have a new give-a-way that started yesterday.

Look at all that sparkle! and fur too! Isnt' it fun finding vintage treasures? My grandmother was a dressmaker, and she would string all her extra buttons on a big long string. this was passed down to my mother, and now my sister has it, but I LOVE looking at it.

Oooooooo.....lucky you.
I agree with what Me said in her/his comment. You can't get buttons like that at that price at any of the thrift stores around here. My blue eyes are green with envy.
Thanks for sharing.
