A Gift from Grandma Buttons

March 18th, 2010 @ 5:10 pm by Mrs. Buttons

Let me tell you, Grandma Buttons is pretty hip.

You are probably already aware that Grandma Buttons can sew like a champ. She’s a crafty gal! She even wants to open her own Etsy shop… and I really hope that she does!

Grandma Buttons has Facebook. Yep! Seriously… and she uses it! When I talked about my bridesmaid shoes the other day, she sent me a message saying that she needed a pair in a smaller heel for herself - sassy, wouldn’t you say? Also, Grandma Buttons reads my blog, and has gotten into the “Miss Buttons” moniker.

Don’t believe me??? Check it out!

I received a package in the mail one day from her, along with a card; a card that she created using my Button icon. How cute is that?

In addition to the cutie patootie card, she sent me a few birds to add to my flock that she painted herself! I love that she wanted to contribute to my collection. I’m contemplating the perfect location for the pair!

Do you have any family members who have really gotten into your wedding planning with you?

Sadly no. Maybe it is the fact that everyone lives in a different state and I’m kind of here alone - or maybe it is just too early for people to really jump on the band wagon.

But your grandma is way cool. :-)

Oh your grandma is awesome :) My grandma is actually sending any bracelets, earrings, rings, necklaces whatever for me to look through so I can decide if I want to wear one for the wedding day. One of the special ones is the bracelet she wore 57 years ago on her wedding day!

You’re grandma is such a sweety! I love that she’s so connected to the electronic world. =) It amazes me how spunky some older ladies can be. Last Christmas my Baba (grandma in slovak) tried on my sister’s high heels (at least 3inches) and started to do the charleston in them. It was so cute!
