I have many vintage sample cards of buttons and buckles. I was looking at one today and thinking to myself how with all our technology and modern thinking we do not come close to how perfectly things were done in the good old days -There was so much emphasis on detail.
With so much thought given to detail, people must have really taken pride in their work.
I really believe with the world the way it is today and the economic position we are all in it is telling us all something...
Perhaps we should all stop - breath - and get down back to the basics.
The world is moving so fast with us all running around like mice on wheels trying to get a million things done in the few hours we have each day.
Just looking at this card and the way each button was hand sewn onto the card ...
.. the way each code was written so neatly , at the exact distance above the red line and just how much pride the person doing must have had to get it perfect makes me think...
as humans we need to take time for the finer details in our lives - time to breath - time to reflect - and all these things together will add to our creativity.
