Button Gluttony

I found a beautiful thing last night...

I've actually had them forever- I just didn't know I still had them. They'd been hidden in the depths of my basement for so long that I'd thought I'd lost them in my many moves. I was so excited to find these. They're all my grandmother's and some even of my great grandmother's buttons. Some I think I quite old. Others probably not so much.  A few of my faves:

I obviously had way too much fun... you can see the whole set here. And a parting shot just for fun.

Very cool photos. You definitely had too much fun with styling the buttons.
I find vintage buttons brings up classic style, and memories as well.
