Button Box

Following my button picture post, I had some comments about buttons - did I have many left?

Well this *was* my button collection

And then a friend gave me two boxes from her late father 

So I sorted these (I only keep the ones that lay flat, not the ones with a shaft, does anyone want them?) and now my jars look like this 

They look lovely on the window sill with the light shining through, but there are quite a lot now!  Maybe just as well I'm teaching button pictures soon!
