I am a keeper of buttons and have started a second jar to store them. Before I toss a piece of clothing I remove and keep the buttons. I have a quite a few from my kids' old clothes that are fun to look at. This face button was on my dress as a little girl.
My fabulous package from Jen in the Vintage Button Swap! Gorgeous red, black and white buttons, a pile of fabulous fabric scraps, two embroidered linen teatowels, a pile of paper ephemera, and a kitschy craft book! More descriptions on my blog: paper.string.cloth
After my last posting I missed a button from my dress. Yesterday I found it, so
I lost a button,
A little silver button,
So I looked for my button
Most everywhere.
I found my button,
My gold rimmed button,
So I sewed on my button
Most firmly there.
Just to make you smile!
With apologies to AAMilne.

"Eagle, Anchor, Globe". USMC. This is a 3/4 inch button from the uniform of Charles E. Fay. He was the father of my spouse, Pam, and served in the Pacific Theater during WWII. He passed in 1967 when Pam was a senior in high school. We found the button today when going through the button box of Pam's mother who will celebrate her 99th birthday this weekend. A nice find. Memories.

I was considering putting this up as one of my photos for the Macro Monday theme Button(s) but thought that as some one had already put a similar photo up it would miss the Cut. This is a button from my Number 1 Home Dress whilst I served in the Royal Air Force from January 1977 until July 2014. Per Ardua ad Astra "Through adversity to the stars"

Sewing items hastily thrown together in a bowl. The buttons and thread spools casually mingle waiting to be used again.
I came across these further out on the board walk. Water is still to deep for anything to happen. managed to get a blue heron foraging and it looked like he was sitting on the water like a goose. They are wading birds and he was in the shallow water.
These delightful 'button mums' are very perky and bright. Usually only 1 - 1.5" across, they provide a warm glow during the autumn time period.
