Nautical notions

My extensive collection of nautical buttons with anchors, ribbon and Naval pins. From the US and around the world.
This is a wonderful collection I started many years ago. I have many things nautical in my home. Teddy Bears, navy dress hats, boating caps, naval buttons and pins, model sailboats, lighthouses, brass ships lantern, seashells, framed artwork, upholstery fabric on chairs and throw pillows, ...oh the list goes on. Living on the coast in a nautical community is the perfect place for me.

Camera; Nikon D60 ~ Lens; AF-S Nikkor 18-55 mm

    Thats an impressive collection Marjorie! How nice!

  • Marjorie Wallace replied

    Thank you, Ellen. I started collecting them years ago and I fear it has gotten out of hand. I have friends who send them to me as gifts now and I do not know what to do with all of them… accept just enjoy them.

  • Marjorie Wallace replied

    Thank you, Lois. I just decided to set this up where the light was coming in the window. The beautiful nautical box that used to belong to my dear friend, Sharry has become the perfect thing to store them in.

  • Marjorie Wallace replied

    Thank you so much, Karon. It is difficult to display it in an interesting way and not have it look just like a big jumble. This is one of my favorite collections.

    Excellent dearest friend!!

  • Marjorie Wallace replied

    Thank you, John. I hear the “call of the Sea’ every day my whole life. I think I must have been a sailor in my last lifetime. I have a book by that name by the way. Jan de Hartog is the author. Have had it for years….
