My sweet sister recently had to make a quick 14-hour drive up to Kentucky and she brought me back these jars of buttons! One jar is filled with glass buttons and she also got two stacked button "flowers".

When she called me that she was headed back home I asked her if the grass was really blue up there; with her sense of humor she surprised me with a little grass, too. Nah, it's definitely green.
