I had the opportunity to travel to Boston with the husb for a conference. We did the usual sightseeing. We took a trolly tour which I repeated the second day. Very fun and informative.
Naturally I googled to find all the local fabric and yarn shops. That is how I found Windsor Button on Temple Street just off Boston Commons.
When I walked in I found this to the right...
More yarn then imaginable... waiting in boxes to be unpacked. Since I work in a yarn shop I was just itching to dive into these boxes. Crazy!
They had a nice yarn selection. Everything from Lion Brand to Lorna's Laces.
But the BUTTONS. Check this out...

I, of course, had no particular need for buttons... but I picked out 5 interesting wood buttons for my stash.
And here is the good news... they have an Online-Store! The bad news is, it is not nearly as fun as beeing there!

Oh how fun! Who doesn't LOVE a button store. I used to get my button fix at Baer's -- sadly, no more. Looks like you had a great time!
I dream of a button store like that.
