Simple & Beautiful Button Storage

There's just something about a jar full of buttons!
Is there a more beautiful, yet simple way to organize them?
I think not.







line them all up on a shelf ...



or mount them below a shelf by their lid...



use vintage canning jars...


or new canning jars...


even baby food jars...
(check out the tutorial to make this here)


what about empty spice jars, in a rack on your desk?


or lined up in a drawer...


There are so many ways to organize and store buttons, but right now I'm daydreaming about dozens of pretty little jars, filled to the brim with lovely buttons all sorted by color.

Tell us! Do you use jars for organizing in your sewing or crafting space?

Leslie, I love your button storage post. I have buttons in the little ikea jars like the second picture. I love them that way. It's definitely a candy look, which I have always been partial to. Thanks for stopping by Quirky Vistas and leaving me a sweet comment. Originally I was just going to use the faucet knobs, but then I thought, I might as well get some use out of the whole thing, since I had them. Hope you find a great project to do with some of your own. It was fun!

Buttons do indeed make very beautiful decorations, be it in storage or just out in the open, glued to fabrics and materials alike. I organize my little knick knacks like buttons, screws and nails inside a drawer cupboard with tiny organizers inside of each drawer which I made by myself using cardboard and inlets. I like to keep them concealed inside to look neat instead of displaying them out in the open.
