    I had a similar lovely 🥰 experience with my grandmother. Carried on with my children and grandchildren. She didn’t let me play with little buttons, they were all very big ornate coat, jacket buttons. I thought she was a queen to have all those jewels 💎.

    we were blessed by having our grandma's in our lives and so much a part of our childhood, mine was my loving mother figure, and I have her Singer machine it was a treadle! No electricity where we lived back in those days. I learned to sew on it in the 50's. I also have her button tin, and so many antiques in that sewing machine cabinet, wooden spools of thread, etc. I loved these button cards..they did bring back memories of my sewing for my children in the 60's and 70's too, and making all my own clothes then as well. Thanks for the memories!

    I have All my grandma Mocki’s buttons. When I was young we used to sit on her bed and look threw her button jars. I do that now with my grandson. I occasionally incorporate her buttons and her zippers and rick
    ack, ribbons in my journals. I love your story Luise. ❤️❤️

    The button cards you showed reminded me of the ones I got from my grandma after she passed. I got her large tin of buttons and it had some buttons in it from her and she had even had some from my great grandma. The little things that are dear to my heart 🙂

    I think this touches the heart of many of your subscribers... I remember sleeping under the most beautiful and colorful quilts made by my great grandmother. With her hand hooked floor mats by the beds and throughout the house. Handmade socks and mittens for everyone. I followed in her footsteps when it came to all those things, and still have some of her buttons and spools of thread. She passed away in 1967, at age 82. So nice to find so many others whose creativity was inspired by their ancestors! These button cards are beautiful!

    How lovely you have this memory with your grandmother!
    As a child i played with a sigarbox full with buttons.
    All the buttons were removed from clothes that where not to be used anymore.
    Buttons were expensive.
    Also my mother had this job, an old fashioned house wife job .... sewing buttons on cards?
    How cool is that, you brought that back to my memory, as children we sometimes helped with that and i loved doing it.

    These are gorgeous! I have learned that button collections like this are often cut off garments that are too worn to wear. The cloth was made into quilts or rags. . . And the buttons were saved for mending.

      My Grandmother had 11 kids and SSOOOOO many Grandchildren. She had a huge button jar. When we’d go visit her, she’d let us play with those buttons. She’d been cutting them off of old shirts, dresses, coats. Anything that she was getting rid of or recycling. So they were all shapes, sizes and colors. I never knew who got those buttons. She passed when I was 12. I’m sure whoever got them keeps them locked up in a safe. They were worth more to all her Grandchildren than any silver or gold. Lol
      I had paused your video to write my post, before I saw more of your story. Now I know you understand completely what I was saying about my Grandmother. Like I said, I didn’t get any of my Grandmothers buttons. But I have the memories of me as a child playing with these. I’m 64 now. These memories are as sharp now as they were when I was a child. Thank you for sharing your memories through this post. ♥️♥️♥️

      You know what you might do, start a collection in memory of your Nona💜…I wasn’t left anything of my Nona either but I have memories locked in my mind…different little hobbies I remember I have continued as my way of being closer to her…pieces of cloth, buttons, orchids, quirky little jewelry pieces- nothing that would mean anything to anyone probably…however in the silence of the moonlight when I am creating and talking with “her”; all these secrets between Nona and I are quite special.

Yesterday I arrived back to Italy after more than one year stuck in China because of the pandemic, and where I live I have no other Italians to speak to, so I must use English or Chinese all the time. even if sometimes we don't know the exact word we look for, I am so glad I can understand you.

    Thank you for the freebie, and your wonderful ideas, Luise! Playing in my mother’s button box was a pleasure for me as well. Sadly, when she died the buttons were given away before I could ask for them. I’m so very glad you have your grandmother’s buttons!
    I wish you were kinder to yourself about your English. You speak beautifully! It is always a joy to watch your channel!🥰

    Luise, my grandmother also had a large collection of buttons! They were in a great big glass bowl and I always played with them when I was a little girl. When she passed away I wanted her buttons but we couldn't find them anywhere. Ever since I have been collecting old buttons from flea markets and antique fairs. I'm wondering if your grandmother collected her buttons the way mine did. She made would cut the buttons off of old clothes and save them and then make quilts with the fabric. If she purchased buttons to sew a dress she always put any leftovers in the bowl with the others. She came from a generation that never wasted anything!

    I just love these button cards! I have all my Mom's buttons. It is a special way to use the buttons for a remembrance. Thanks for the inspiration.

    My Mom and my Mother-in-law both had buttons. I remember going through the old buttons as a child. I don't know what happened to them, but I have my own tin now for using in my journals. I love how your button cards turned out.

    I have several jars of buttons I've collected over the years. I love buttons! And don't apologize for your English! I'm always amazed by people who speak a second language. I only know a tiny bit of German, not enough to speak it and make any sense. Your English is excellent!

    My grandchildren call me the button lady. My mother had so many buttons and we did play with them as well. You gave me a bit more of who you are with your story. Just a bit more to love about you.
    I have at least a million buttons, some with me and some in storage in the states. And my childhood friends mom gave me a tin of her buttons, some were even her grandmother's so they were from the 1800's. Her request was that I make her daughter a necklace with some of the very cool red ones. I did and Benn ah ( my childhood friend) cried when I gave it to her...partly because her mother had passed shortly after giving me the tin of buttons. Thank you for this lovely memory prompt.

    I love your videos, but especially this one. I wanted to share our grandma’s buttons with my siblings without ruining them and was trying to think of how. This is perfect. Thank you so much for sharing your talents.
