Rita's buttons

My grandmother - probably like many of her generation (born in 1901, and died over 20 years ago..) always removed the buttons from old clothes before they were recycled.. or turned to rags.
She gave these to me one day - and i've kept them safe all these years.

Beautiful shot, she was from the absolutely no waste recycle generation, when it was out of need and not fashionable

I played for hours and hours with my aunties tin of buttons as a child, I wish I still had them.... lovely shot, love the vintage feel..

This is awesome. I have button bottles all over the huse as things wear out I add to them, but always to be re-used. I love this shot.

A wonderful capture, close to my heart - I have sooooooooooooooo many buttons, some collected so kept from my own clothes.
