Playing In My Studio

I haven't played with my buttons for some time now and trying to rearrange them from all the jars and boxes they are in.
 I sewed these buttons on a heavy piece of cotton lace once to make a sash
 Still love my buttons



Hope you are all off to playing/ enjoying  your studio creations also.
I am going next weekend on a hunt for more in southern Missouri. If you know any great places to shop vintage let me know 
Thanks

You know the best thrift stores, Laurie. 25 cents for those hearts? Shut the door! :)
It has been too long since I stopped in!
I do love buttons, but only have a few jars full. But most of the ones I do have are either from my grandma or my late-husbands grandma; so that makes them meaningful as well~
I use them on my (mostly) card creations and scrapbook things.
You have so many beautiful one's featured hereon the lace! What a great stash! TFS karen o

LOVE your button collection!!! I have a few Victorian black crocheted buttons and keep them for a future special project. Some buttons I have collected from when I worked at a sewing store called Suburban Yardage in Sacamento, CA back in the early 1980's. Happy that I can now use a few for our future grandchild for cute clothing!!!


Enjoy your lovely collection and I do think the Bausch and Lomb boxes will look pretty painted or papered. <3

Hugs,
Barb :)
