Welcome
High Button Shoe, was an established primitive folk-art business, opened September 1995, in a turn of the century, Byers family farmhouse. Located a mile south of the village of Tustin, Michigan. The shop was lovingly restored to its original hardwood floors, tongue and groove ceilings, and shelving constructed from century old second floor planking. We added primitives and antiques to an extensive back drop of folk-art....
...sadly we have closed the shop, as change is inevitable and part of life. The shop will be taking on new life, as it formerly did as an old homestead, with us moving into this beloved olde structure, with our vast collection of primitive antiques to once again make it come alive as a home. Memories abound in each room, surrounding us with visions and thoughts of all the good times spent there with our family, now gone. The rooms whisper stories we cherish, and I am thrilled to be walking on the old wood floors as they did, glancing through the olde window glass that our ancestors watched the fields through. We have come full circle, my heart smiles.
Photographs of the farmhouse
..since moving to the farmhouse of our ancestors this summer, we have amassed many photographs of the rooms, as the sunshine crept and danced thru them on our extensive primitive collections. Over 100 photos of this farmhouse & yards on CD with a written farm history included, dating back to pre 1880. $15 p.paid
Photographs of the old house
..when we moved, we left behind a lifetime of a house we built in 1963, a ranch house, taken back in time with primitive furniture and collections. We took house photos in the past few years, and are offering more than 130 photographs of this primitive lifestyle on CD, with Christmas photos and yards. $15 p.paid, contact me .
