Remember that beautiful broach your grandmother wore??

Or how about the necklace that brings back memories of your mother when you were young?

Get back to the days of Cracker Jack toys and swing coats!

If you long for something old that holds special meaning to you, Lori Kirsch transforms vintage buttons and toys into modern vintage treasures.

"People aren't seeing or enjoying these buttons that are tossed into jars," explains Lori Kirsch. "They are fun and colorful and people need to see them."

They are not just buttons but vintage buttons and toys connected together by beads and the love of antiques and days past.

"Some people start laughing, but not at my work they just think its fun and it makes them smile," says Kirsch.

"People know when they buy a piece of my work that time and time again they will be asked ‘where did you get that?’"
