buttons in glass houses!
one of my most favorite things to do while thrifting is to search for the ultimate storage display! i came across a dozen of these forgotten glass baby bottles (in the original boiling pot) at a local thrift a few months ago. i got the whole set for a couple bucks not knowing exactly what i was going to use them for. after some thought, i realized i have always color-coded my life, so why not do the same with my vintage buttons. what a perfect home! i think the buttons look so beautiful through the glass, and most importantly, i can see all of them - i no longer have to sift through mounds of buttons to find the perfect one!!!

So nice! Like candies!
wow::so beautiful!
That's a fantastic idea! I hate that I have my buttons in ziploc bags in my closet...I may try something like this!
so pretty! love to see the colors and shapes :)
Yes! Glas is the best storage for beautiful things - great find and great display!
thanks everyone!
another idea for button storage is baby food jars with the label peeled off - so cute!!!
Beautiful! You've inspired me to sort out my buttons by color. Besides looking great, it will be much easier to find one!
oh yes-- such a treat for the eyes! vibrantly colored buttons in glass jars... love this!
I like red buttons best.
Great idea. I wish I'd have kept some.
