Button Floozies

I have this card of antique La Mode metal buttons with gorgeous purple glass middles. Anyway I am thinking of removing them from their original cards and putting in a glass covered candy jar with other beautiful buttons. Now should I leave them on their card? or do you button collectors think they need to stay on their original cardboard card that has bent edges. Need your advice, thanks from Janice                                                                        

Come and visit me at Indulge Your Shelf to see what I made with scraps of fabric and two of my loveliest buttons!

Button Floozies gets some unexpected attention online, again. Some of my mother-of-pearl button collection Who would be up for a holiday swap of the button-themed type?  I'm open to ideas, and looking for volunteers to host a swap, or two -- if this sounds like you, please send me an email!

I have these fabric buttons I call them in my big jars of mother of pearls buttons not knowing what else to do with them, They are handmade I do believe and beautiful. I bet they were the closure for a beautiful evening jacket worn over a beautiful tulle and satin evening gown back in the glamorous days of the 1930-1950's? Just day dreaming . Do you know anything about buttons like these? please tell                                                                                                                                                                       ...

I purchased this collection of BUTTONS at the local Volunteers of America Thrift Store for $2.99! All the buttons were threaded together, worn and weathered...They are PERFECT this way! They remind me of WHAT'S IN! WHAT'S OLD IS NEW AGAIN! Thanks for looking, Button Floozies!

I went into a resale shop that has upscale items however found this small bag of white buttons marked $1.00. Which made me happy                                                                    I found 3 little buttons with a rhinestone center, a couple glass buttons  The rest are mother of pearl and odd and ends of vintage buttons, they will all find a new home in jars of like buttons                                              Oh one tulip button
