Button Box

One of my fondest sewing memories I have from childhood is of looking through my mother’s button box. I could spend enormous amounts of time sifting through all the different buttons, admiring different ones for their color or shape, daydreaming about what I could make with them.

The button box I have today carries the same allure: this time the child sifting through its treasury is my 4-year-old. After inheriting Grandma Hunt’s collection my box is quite full.

And quite magnetizing.
