This post is about 3 of my favourite things - Collecting, Storage & Organising!!!
My very good friend Kay gave me this old wooden printing tray a few weeks ago.. I'd actually been searching for one on my trips around various charity shops for a while, I knew I needed one. My intention was to fill it with my beads but then I decided to sort my buttons (again!) I should add that I have been collecting buttons for years & they have been sorted in many different ways!!..
They were all mixed in one large box (just got shoved in a cupboard & way too unorganised)
Then they got divided into individual mini jars (looked good, but I had soooo many jars they took up too much space)
Then back into one large glass jar (they looked lovely, but again too unorganised).
& finally I have the answer....

Oh Clair, I would dearly love one of these. Will have to keep an eye out for one, especially as I worked at a print shop 30 years ago !!! never to realise I would ever use one for craft ha ha. Big Hugs Jo. xxx

Collection of buttons. Maybe you had spent too much time collecting many many buttons. Don't you have a plan of selling it?
