I went to this quirky little museum the other day.
Someone had collected bits and pieces from nature.
This piece showed how they use to make shell buttons.
There were all sorts of items stored in the upper floor of an old building.
It was rather "steampunk" in it's style.
It seems odd that a compleatly landlocked state, Iowa, is the shell button capitol. Interesting museum, thanks for sharing.
