Work was FRUSTRATING once again today so I had two glasses of wine with dinner and I feel so much better. However my photographic endeavors suffered a bit. Although I did like this shot of Diesel with a donut sprinkle stuck to his felt. I sometimes have a hard time getting them in focus, but I really think it is because they are inherently fuzzy. The sprinkle came out quite sharp.
For Marti, a little bigger shot of the button box. You just never know what you will find. How the two different sized leather covered buttons ended up together is beyond me. Like a button and a button mini-me. Twasn't planned or contrived.
I have a button box. No buttons have been added to it in all the years that I can remember. It was my Grandmother's and, mostly, it's full of shirt buttons. Sometimes, I wonder if those buttons are ivory, they're so old.
ReplyDeleteLouise there are tests you can do for ivory authentication.
ReplyDeleteI think I see a mother of pearl on the middle of the left edge
We lost a few things along the way, wish my mom had not thrown out the buttons. There were some old ration tokens as well
