Button, Button

Don't you wonder where they've been?
I love to dig through them and look at the old bone
ones, the shell ones, the old plastics, just the colors are
fascinating. 
Have they been on a woman's house dress, a man's overalls,
maybe a toddlers shirt or pajamas.  I don't think any of
these are formal wear buttons, they're too
plain and ordinary.  The
stories they could tell.

I love old buttons. As a teenager I used to have a collection of buttons. Unfortunately I have no idea what happened to them.

I have kept buttons from when I was making clothes and toys for my kids. I love sifting through them!
Hope you have a lovely Tues., Diane!
Hugs,
