#52 Buttons


Debbie recently bought a big bag of mixed buttons. Large collections of buttons always remind me of being a small boy playing with my Mums button collection, each one with its own little history. Watercolour and pencil 19cm x 14cm click here to bid.

The tin is a doozy! the lid has the heads and the tin itself has the bodies painted on it and you spin the head to match the tinker, tailer, soldier etc...or not and make the sailer have a tinkers head!
