Step back in time with this charming mid-century “Housewifes Button Box” - a nostalgic sewing essential from the days of make-do and mend. Complete in its original packaging, this cheerful little box contains a total of 72 buttons, divided equally into 24 vest buttons, 24 shirt buttons, and 24 pyjama buttons. Each type is sorted neatly into the original compartments, still sealed in its cellophane.

The box itself is a design lover’s delight, featuring a playful red and green pattern with smiling button faces and retro typography. Marked “Empire”, this piece likely dates from the 1950s-60s, offering a glimpse into post-war domestic life and thrift.

Perfect for collectors, sewing enthusiasts, or as a sweet decorative item in a vintage-themed craft space. A quirky, practical gift for anyone who appreciates the beauty of everyday objects from a bygone era.
