Welcome to another week of Show and Tell Sunday, Hosted by Cindy and Cerri. I took a bunch of pictures of some of the collections I have , and lost half of them in the editing process. Poo !! :) Anyways, I wanted to show you some of my buttons. These are mostly mirrored glass and rhinestone buttons with a few old pearl ones thrown in. I love these.
The next ones are vintage baby buttons that my friend Sharon paints along with her sweet guilloche style heart charms. These are TEENY tiny and Ever So Sweet :) I think these are just a little under 1/4", like 3/16". Unbelievable !!!
She has these Gorgeous studio buttons on her website right now, along with her wonderful charms.
Another collection is My Vintage Ginny/ Muffy style 1950's walker dolls. These are WAY sweet !! I have several, all needing restoration. Look at that saucy little face and cute chubby cheeks. :)
I have been collecting Vintage Wedding dolls, all in need of restoring. All of my babies are patiently waiting for me to Show The Love and give them a spiffy new look. They are looking Peaked, don't you think ? The larger compo one is missing an eye. She really must stop winking at the boys, poor dear, she has winked her eye right off. I feel sorry for her Groom, lol !!!
And lastly a bowl of vintage aqua brooches and earrings. Three of them are hand painted. I just LOVE the pretty one on the bottom right, the antique guilloche one. That is My Show and Tell. Please go to Cindy's for a list of other participators. :)
Hugs,
Rhea

This is a beautiful post, Rhea. You have some pretty collections. Those buttons are amazing! Guess what? In the last picture, I have that same crystal bowl! I looked at it and wondered "how did she get my bowl?" LOL Small world.
Hi Rhea!
I am a collector of buttons too, love them! I can't believe the detail Sharon gets on the roses on those tiny buttons! Amazing. I used to have Ginny dolls, I wonder what happened to them? Packed away somewhere I suppose. I love your aqua jewelry collection too. So many lovely things:>)
Ooooh, Rhea, those are indeed gorgeous, sweets! I love little buttons that are different. Sharon's are exquisite too. Oh my, just to delicious for words. :-)
Smooches and hugs,

Hello Rhea,
Nice to see you posting today. I assume that means you are feeling well today, and that is good :)
thanks for this pretty post today. Those buttons are just darling. I have a love for vintage baby dresses, and I am just loving these buttons. I will have to check them out. I have a vintage ginny doll also in my collection.

I am amazed by teh handpainted, teeny-tiny buttons!
I have that same crystal bowl too. A set of 8, in fact. I use them for everything from jewelry to salads.
I just love all the eye candy you share here. I need to drag out my mom's old button box and see what pretties lie therein! ;-)
Ooh, I just love buttons, too! What sweet work that your friend does on the buttons too, and SO tiny!
All so pretty Rhea, thanks for sharing.
