Notice the addition of a folded label attached with a few staples. This display idea is easy, practical and affordable.
Sorting Vintage Buttons Is A Stress Buster
I have been told by many button collectors that sitting on the floor or at the table sorting through mounds of buttons can actually be a stress buster. These are probably the same gals who find ironing and washing dishes enjoyable and very relaxing.
