Vintage buttons

More things from my Great Aunt, these vintage buttons are so wonderful, I just wish I had more but 3 is a good number so I'm happy with that. The middle one is so amazing close up and as always, I love the worn out fabric (not that I plan to let it wear any further of course). These are REALLY old but I can't find her notes to give the actual date.

    OOhh Cally, what sugar- sweet buttons they are, the fact that you only have THREE makes them very treasured. I have a thing for buttons too and have lots that are special to me from clothes, my mum made me which I remember wearing as a little girl. Love revisiting your blog. Thanks for posting such lovely things to share.

    Cally, these are so unusual! I could see them pinned onto a delicate ribbon around your neck...

    The one in the middle is so detailed and beautiful, I think it should be made into a brooch.
