They just don't make grannies like ours anymore. As a little girl, my grandmother, who didn't even speak English, was able to keep me entertained stringing together buttons from an old metal box she kept. This definitely reminded me of those days. #1453331

I have a old candy metal container with my Granny's buttons. This image made me think of it. Brought back a lot of memories. Wonderful lighting and detail of all the buttons Kerry! #10430194
