Vintage button journals

I decided to use pretty vintage buttons on some of the journals I recently made. I found them in a tin given to me by my grandmother. It belonged to her mother so its definitely vintage!

Pushing Daisies

I just love the show pushing daisies. The colourful interiors and fashion make my Thursday evenings!

Keep things tidy in vintage tins!

This one has lots of vintage buttons in it!!

Today I want to share these tins with you that I got from my grandmother. They are about 50 years old and she used to keep sweets in them, my mother tells me. I think they are absolutely gorgeous! The box in the picture at the bottom is mine. I remember I used to play with it when I was little (you can see this by the pen scrathes I made on it!)  but can't remember where I got it from.
