Button Mania

I bought this stash of buttons from Trash and Treasure for $3.00.


I'd say there is about 100 or so.


They were a little dirty and smelt.


I have washed them and they still smell, so they are now soaking in eucalyptus oil.


I am sitting quite a distance from them and I can smell them from here!


So I'm sure they'll come up a treat!




Just a few varieties


UPDATE!


So I cleaned the buttons and got them smelling nicer. The eucalyptus oil was not a good idea as it tended to melt the plastic on some buttons. I also got around to sorting them into coloured groups and I counted them. Guess how many? Well in total there was 436!


126 blue, 80 grey, 135 brown/red shades, 114 green and 81 black & assorted .
