Very unique collection- Iām sure some would fetch a fair price. Iām looking around thinking to unload some things to further sustain us. ā¤
No worries, I have a box I moved here from Virginia to Maryland about 11 years ago and I havenāt opened it yet. Obviously there isnāt anything important in it as Iāve survived these years w/o whatever is in there. Regarding the kitty paw prints. We had many cats throughout my childhood, my father tolerated them and but he would get so angry when he found kitty paw prints marked all over the windshield of his car!
What an amazing collection you have Miss Kaye! Thank you for sharing them with us!š
I liked the medallions
Wow Kaye – what an awesome collection! And in true Kaye fashion, she stores them in their original boxes inside a much larger box. The black button with the off white lady bust reminds me of my lady head vase collection – so pretty. When you pulled out the sewing kit that was in your sewing machine drawer from another lady it gave me hope that one day someone will find and potentially use my collection of sewing material, thread, yarn, buttons, etc. You are so right – we can't take it with us. Have a blessed week and great video..
Your buttons are beautiful! I enjoy sewing and really liked seeing your collection. Thank you, for sharing it with us. š·
Can you put them closer to the camera ?
Amazing collection Kaye! So beautiful and unique.. ā„ļøā„ļøā„ļø thank you for sharingš
Beautiful buttons Kaye! Thank you for sharing
Great collection of buttons š
What a beautiful collection of buttons along perfect music selection. I believe 46:56 is to be sewn on the end of a collar for a dress , cuff, or cape. I see these on Mardi Gras costume. As for this collection, canāt you turn them to earrings or necklaces, like the big single metal button? Ms. Kaye, Iām speechlessā¦ this is amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful collection Kaye! The details on some are amazing. They are small works of art. I too have a button collection but mine are loose and in a tin like my mom always kept hers. My mom would sew many of our clothes, so she never threw out a button. Some of my buttons are quite old but usually only one or two of each.
Found this on google search:
What happened to Tender Buttons in New York City?
When beloved NYC institution, Tender Buttons, closed its doors, the shop owner, Millicent Safro, decided there was no place better to donate a portion of her vintage button collection than Materials for the Arts. Learn more about this story in the Wall Street Journal.Jan 29, 2020
Thanks for sharing!
That's Amazing and you are Amazing as well ā¤š¹š»š„°šMuch loved! You can live in my house anyday cus your cute asa button and I might get a very very nice sweater out of the contractual deal! Are you game? šš¹
Great lovely Video thank you and I hope you had an enjoyable day, I did!
I enjoyed this show and tell! I could easily imagine a blouse or fitted dress with buttons in the back! ā¤
Love vintage buttons!
Fabulous collection! So glad you did close-ups, thank you for sharing š¤
Photagraphing Buttons for the note card would be a very artistic endeavor if not for self satisfaction and own use but very sellable, your right not a thing as much anymore but it sure would be nice to receive a note card with those photos on it, from someone who loves you or a thank you, but especially from you. GREAT KEEPSAKE!
What a fascinating Collection, great taste KAYE!
If you plan to sell them please do the photography now in case you want to do Matt and Framed art
Or Cards the photos would look great on a wall.
BTW You look fabulous in all of your sweaters, they fit very nicely and-they are GoRgEoUs
You could take those to an Antiques Road Show!
I did have some old buttons but they disappeared when I moved.
Now I'm longing for something I've never had. Lol I love these videos.
Beautiful collection Kayeā¦what great memories they bringā¦ā„ļø
Do what you want and love, Kaye. As for writing cards, the kind sent in the U.S. Mail, many people enjoy those, even those young people that tend to text or whatever online. Hayward Unified School District in No. California just reinstated instruction for cursive writing in first through third grade this year (2023-24 school year.)
Lovely collection indeed. Thank you for sharing.š
Thanks for showing them up close. Fun trip down memory lane.
Beautiful I now have a apprecistion
There amazing buttons thanks for sharing you
Great taste these are treasures
A little piece of history and a lost artā£ļø
What a lovely collection!! I do have to say that people do get ripped off in NY. I can't believe you would pay $250.00 for 4 buttons. But then you have designers that will pay that price because they put them on the over priced clothes that they make and they get their money back. It was kind of like when I went into the stores at Art Deco in Miami Beach. A dress for $5k that looked like it was made at the 5 and dime. If you wanted good quality then it was $10K to 20K. I always thought what a waste and what a gimmic. Your sweaters are BEAUTIFUL. What a talented lady. Now that would be worth paying some money for. It was so much fun watching you open each box. It was like watching a little girl on Christmas. I truly enjoyed the close ups at the end and the music was enchanting and relaxing. I did some research for you and ONE of the most valuable is the cellulose. They recommend you contact an appraiser to get the real value and not to sell until you know what you have.
I once cleaned a home for a very very wealthy lady. I was paying my way through college. She came home with a wooden chair. The chair was painted black with gold flecks. She paid $5 K for that chair. I told her she was crazy!!! I went home and painted a black chair just like the one she had. I also got some gold paint with REAL gold in it. I took the brush and dipped it into the paint and spattered the chair. I had a 5K chair for $25.00. True story. Looked IDENTICAL to hers. She was shocked. I told her I could have made her one and she could have paid me the 5K.
Anyway, thanks for sharing and take a day to do research to find the value of your treasures. I had fun and learned about my lovely VERY OLD collection of antique canning jars. It's fun and relaxing.
What a beautiful collection of buttons that is stunning art. My favorites are the toucan and the horseshoes. The toucans are number 1 for me. So sweet.
I love buttons, my mom had large plastic jars full of buttons….my sisters and I used to dump them out on the bed and just look at them. We did that many times for entertainment when we were children. Buttons are awesome. Thank you for showing your unique collection. What an awesome video; I thoroughly enjoyed it. My favorite are the green glass and pearl buttons.šā¤
