I've developed the interesting habit of collecting buttons, fabrics, and other inspirational things. Many a times I have stopped along the dirty roads of the village and plucked the buttons off of a dirty blouse left along the side. It breaks my heart to see useful things thrown away. My craft room is overwhelmed with beach glass, driftwood, and other's trash (that has oh so easily become my treasures). Can you blame me? I cannot just pass beautiful trinkets by. They need a home just as well as brand new glass beads. In fact, they need a home even more. For they are the long forgotten jewels awaiting their chance to be polished and worn again.
