buttons 'n apothecary jars


If you've been reading my blog for any length of time, you know how much I love buttons and apothecary jars. So wouldn't you agree that they go quite nicely together. Well, I bought my latest jar at Hobby Lobby. And as always, 50% off. Love that about Hobby Lobby. I decided to store only my pink 'n red buttons in this jar... and this was all the buttons I could come up with. And mind you, I have jars of buttons. Well, Miranda & I went to my little thrift store this week and I came home with quite a boat load of buttons! Vintage buttons to be precise. And while I'm picking out the pink 'n red buttons today, I am reminded of how I felt as a little girl playing with my Grandma's and my Mom's basket of buttons.
What IS it about buttons...

I guess you'll just need to get a smaller jar for the red and pink and use the larger one for other colors.
