My favorite colors are blues and greens! I remember when I was a kid I loved when Grandma would have to replace a button because she would dump out her coffee can full of buttons on the kitchen table for us to look through. She had so many shapes and sizes and colors and even the "simple" ones were stunning and fantastic.
