Celluloid Beauty, and, Last Chance to Enter Giveaway!

Look at these beauties: this style of "carving" on a button
is why they're called buffed celluloid.
They are one of my favorite types!
All these buttons are different examples of buttons made from celluloid.
I could look at them all day long!

You have three more days to enter!

The only way I have ever known to identify celuloid is by an applied shank. I would love to hear about it if someone knows a way to identify celuloid when the button doesn't have a shank.
These buttons are BEAUTIFUL!

Michelle Bond Look up National Button Society, they have been around since the 30's and are a wonderful place to learn about buttons. Have fun, Patty Briggs.
