Francisco. Lucky for all who live nearby!

What a beautiful show; just beautiful. I don't collect buttons on purpose
but do seem to have a lots of them. Did you notice the vest the book author
was wearing? Polly

That looks like a lot of fun, Roberta. Who would have thought there
could be a show/sale just about buttons?!? The vintage ones are
wonderful, as are the new ones. I really liked the hand carved wooden
ones - such talent. Oh, and I also loved the trees with the 'snakes
on them... I've never been to a 'button show' but can tell I'd enjoy
it emensely.

Thanks for the link. I love and collect buttons - I have my grandma's,
mother and mother-in-laws button tins and I have collected quite a few over
the years. My favourites are the beautiful glass buttons.
I also collect old wooden cotton reels, empty or not.

DSisIL is a leading light in the British Button Society and has a
fantastic collection - mainly antique buttons.

There are some links there - perhaps there is a group near you?
