Button~Button, Whose Got......the diamond ring????

I am not exaggerating when I tell you I probably have 25,000 buttons.

I buys jars, bags, tins, and cards and cards of them......always have.

It has not been until this week I decided to start sorting and separating the older, nicer ones into separate containers.

You can imagine my surprise....and delight......when that old jar of buttons that I've had on the shelf for five plus years yielded something more than just buttons.

Inside I found this beautiful half carat diamond engagement ring.

Of course, it was dirty and tarnished and certainly not in this little box.....

Once it was cleaned, I was amazed at what I had found...

And what I had for who knows how long.

The moral to this story and my own personal

life lesson....

Pay Attention!

Thanks for stopping by today.

May your week bring you diamonds in the rough

OR

Really cool buttons :)
