I was like a kid in a candy store when I found this bit of 'Buttontopia' at a local market. So many colours and cool shapes. The stories that came with them were just as colourful!!
Meet Olive from Brunswick. Would you believe her family has been in the button industry for over 100 years....a real bit of history! As Olive puts it she was born and bred on buttons. Every week she pulls out some gems to bring to the markets. Some old vintage........and some new. She even dyes her own buttons. She was so exstatic to see a "younger person" buying buttons........am already looking forward to my next visit to her and the stories that acompany my purchases.
