Buttons galore, thanks Nan........

My Grandmother gave me this amazing bag of buttons. The picture really does them no justice! The pile is around half a metre across and 10cm deep. Click on the picture to make it bigger. As you can see I have started soring though them but that crappy little tupperware box is not going to do the job of holding them! The most amazing thing about these buttons is some of them were owned by my Grandmothers Grandmother! Some of them may be well over 100 years old, maybe 150 years old.........
I'm going to make some beautiful things for a new range I am working on- Custom Made Vintage. I will keep you posted. For now I'm going to keep on sorting, wish me luck!

Anna, Custom Made
