Beauty....Primas, Buttons and more Primas, oh my!

I LOVE Primas (brand of paper flower embellishments). I especially love the specialty ones. Any brand is fine. I may have shared a picture of these. They are orange (love orange) and they are polka dotted (love those too)...but look closely...some are FROSTED! Nice, right? I know. Simple pleasures here folks!

I also love and find beauty in my apothecary jars that are filled with all sorts of buttons...I've got lots more, but I am trying to be modest. HaaHaa! I started loving buttons when my late Great Grandmother gave me a big jar of her old buttons. I will have to take pics of those for a whole separate post, but there was some really cool things in there! Since then, I've added here and there and now - look what I have - but all neat and tidy, of course!

And last, but not least today - These Primas. First, I love the earthtones and vintage feel to them. Next, I love the detail...Look really close...you could play a game with these.
Can you find:

  • the cow jumping over a moon
  • the children
  • a man in a top hat
  • the elegant lady
  • Chinese writing
  • Witch Hazel
  • vinegar

Fun - right? I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week!

Frosted?! How cool are those!!! I love the bottom Prima's, I found some of those at Green Tangerine & fell in love with them (but spent my $ on grungeboard instead lol).

I also love your buttons, cool way to display them too.
