HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!

Another year has gone by and I wish everyone a Happy and Healthy one for 2019. May there be many more highs than lows. For all collectors may the hunt be fruitful with many new finds. (Buttons or otherwise) The search is always fun and full of hope. I have always been a Collector of many various objects over the years but now I mainly collect buttons as they don’t take up so much room. So, to all Collectors happy hunting for the New Year.

WOODEN BUTTONS

These two painted wooden buttons were bought new so the paintwork is in good order. One features a Flower Lady while the other is a couple in National Costume of some sort. Are they Welsh? Maybe Italian? I am not good at that!!!!

XMAS IN SANDY POINT, VICTORIA

I have just spent a week over Christmas with my brother and his family down by the beach at Sandy Point in Southern Victoria. There were fifteen of us and we all had a great time. We saw lots of nice scenery at different hours of the day. We had some nice drives and walks. We did not have wi fi at our cottage so I have had a rest from my website. I am now home today and have got back into it. I hope you enjoy my small selection of photos as a memento of a pretty spot.
