The annual button show hosted by The Arizona State Button Society did not disappoint. I met up with friends Nancy & Vickie at the Hilton Garden Inn in Avondale. I was on a tight schedule and didn’t get to attend any of the mini classes they offered. We enjoyed searching for treasures together. We all have our favorites. The out of state dealers made their way from as far away as Australia.
I was looking for a pewter rooster Metzke button for an online friend named Olga. She was trying to replace one she had lost. The closest I found was a Metzke owl. I’m always looking for initial livery buttons for my family collection, people and animal buttons, beautiful glass buttons and centerpiece woozer buttons.The competition trays are always interesting too. It was a terrific show and I highly recommend you attend one.
Happy Button Hunting, Leah

antique glass profile buttons
I love these tiny profile buttons. I will be making earrings with them even tho they don't match. As a no harm button artist I won't damage them.
