He is very protective over this button collection and guards it faithfully. Oh and yes he does bite!
My mother used to tell me that she first got the buttons then got yarn and a project to match her buttons. Backwards maybe but sometimes I see her point.
Of course she did not have the selection and sources that I'm lucky to have. But collecting buttons stuck with me. I inherited her collections and her compulsion to collect buttons. To my surprise I too have started projects with buttons picked out first. Go figure!
Too many buttons in my collection, how big is your button collection?

Yes I too have made things starting with buttons also; they can inspire you with their colour or shape , or feel. Mmmm I must admit I do have rather a lot but some are just too special and have so many memories of my Nain (grandmother in Welsh ) or my Mam ,I tend to either just look and fondle or use them for something special for myself and not give them away ; how greedy am I ?
Love your Venetian ones
