Surprise Vintage Goodies!

I love surprises! These were waiting on my doorstep this morning.  The elderly friend's daughter I was helping knew I was into vintage items and thought I would like these few things! Beautiful pearl hair combs.


Tons, and I mean tons, of vintage buttons were in this cool red vintage candy tin.


Some buttons with original packaging.



Some exquisite buttons.






A completely different cigar box...never saw one like this (and then again, I don't smoke cigars). I think I will paint it and use it to store my new stash. 




Love it!

    That's a button mother load!! They are so pretty. Have fun.

    I don't smoke either but I find all cigar things (boxes, molds, etc.) fascinating for some reason.

    Oh Renee I am a lot bit envious of those buttons and that cigar box. You are one lucky gal and sweet to boot.
