Button UP

In the midst of putting finishing touches on pillows for my SHOP
I came across these gems. 
Buttons from my Aunt's sewing kit, which is filled to the rim with all 
sorts of notions and potions.  
I couldn't resist sharing, however, I do not think I will use these quite yet.
I have memories of spilling my Mom's button collection 
( a coffee can covered in white contact paper with pink tulips) and spending time sorting the buttons by color and size. It's  fun to grab a handful
and let them slide through your fingers. 
Or find them sewn in a tidy row on a vintage card, wrinkled and worn but still intact.
