queen of buttons

I can almost see this big pink button on a Jackie O style yellow wool coat, just one button at the top. My daughter started sewing again this summer and brought out a tin of buttons and sewing notions she inherited from her Great Gramma who passed away this spring. The sequins were in an old spice jar with a Tiffany blue lid, perfect contrast with the bright copper vintage goodies inside. The entire color story is so Marie Antoinette {2006 /Coppola} which, if you haven't seen needs to be rotated into your list of movies to watch. So take the challenge, look around your house this weekend, sometimes the things that spark inspiration are right under your nose...
