Buttons, who has the buttons??

I am redoing and downsizing the craft room items so I can fit them on a rental truck I will be able to drive from here to there. You guys know this.

Yesterday I had this huge box of buttons....the ones my mom sent to me over two years ago. I have sorted it many times to get it into some sort of organization I can use. I have them into colors in little baggies. Yet, there are still a whole bunch of them to work with.

I was all proud of myself. I got it done. Whoot Whoot. Then....egads....no! I found another half box of them to sort out! Mercy me! hahahaha

Most of them are not good for scrapping....they are gold color plastic and it has faded from mom having them so long.....I am putting everything that cannot be made into a card or layout somehow, into a couple of big baggies.....gonna send them to the thrift store. The would be good for putting on a mirror or something, I would guess. Hummmmm......now that I wrote that.....maybe I should keep them......and make a mirror myself??? I could do it, spray paint it a fancy color for the grand daughter?? Would be cute in her room. Maybe make a couple of picture frames to match?? Wonder if grand daughter up in New York would like one??

See......I can never give or throw anything away......everything can be a project. bwahahahaha There is no hope for me. None what so ever.
=========================================
The buttons are all done. They will fit in little containers by color and in the drawers....no more huge box.

Just for the record....I have a whole plastic bag, the type they put your groceries in to bring them home, totally full of all the not needed buttons. Mom sure sent me a lot, huh? She probably has that many x 2 at her house. hahahaha
