** Vintage Buttons **


 

I'm in the process of uploading some vintage buttons to our website's "for sale" page.

These are gorgeous vintage buttons circa 1940-1970's some of them are bakelite, some glass, all are gorgeous!!  Perfect for craft and quilting.  There are even some that are fabric covered, which would be superb with a bobby pin made into hair clips. 

I'm just working out a few bugs with the webpage formatting, but hope to have that sorted soon.  However, the prices and photos are now up, so feel free to take a peek.

If you see anything you'd like to purchase from our website, please drop us an email using our "contact us" page on the website - or our contact details are available on the website too.
