Today I am sharing a couple of vintage things from Dear Great Aunt Bertha's Estate....true treasures...this one...just how I found it....a box of vintage sewing treasures in a Sonomor Safety Pin box! Tucked inside this lovely box were vintage "blue" buttons ( whew did Aunt Bertha have the buttons...lol...and I thought I was a Button Hoarder) Anyway.....vintage brand new packages of seam binding...remnants of blue and orange seam binding wrapped carefully and pinned on original cardboard....blue and white zippers...salvaged to be re-purposed! Aunt Bertha threw nothing away..... she had gone green before going green was even the "IN" thing to do!
I love this color co-ordinated treasure! Obvious to us that Aunt Bertha sorted everything by color....wait to you see some of the other treasures I have to share in my ETSY shop and on E-Bay!
These are a batch of Metal Buttons, that are listed right now on E-bay....I have no idea of their value or age...does anyone have any ideas? Are there any serious button collectors participating today? Can anyone tell me a good sight to research old buttons? Or a great book on Vintage Buttons to buy? I do know that Aunt Bertha always had a story to share about each salvaged button....lol...she had her own button museum!
