If you've arrived here from my
Etsy post on button competitions, you might enjoy seeing a few more photos that I took when I visited button collectors Kareen and Barb. I love people who are obsessive and these two women are definitely all about buttons. The walls of every room in Kareen's home were decorated with framed trays of buttons she'd entered in competitions, as well as trays still "under construction."

The great thing about collections is that by tweaking what one collects just a bit, there is always something new to search for. These women had tremendous knowledge about the buttons they loved. Thanks for sharing your buttons and know-how, Barb and Kareen.
