Found Buried Treasure

Well buried as in had to dig in a thrift store, and treasure as in this amazing button collection! I was looking around for nothing inparticular when this large mason jar stuffed with vintage buttons called out to me.....



Um..yeah for 2 bucks I had to take em! They make my heart so happy. I know they had to have been in someones possession for awhile since there is an array of colors, shapes, and sizes. I never have this much luck at a thrift store! My little girl and I had so much fun going through all our"treasure".



 My mind is running with ideas how to use these gorgeous buttons! 
I just had to share my little find:)

    I love these buttons. My grandmother was a seamstress and she had containers full of buttons. You just made me think of her :)
