Item details

These extra large metal buttons are covered in hand sewn vintage embroidery. Tiny fragments of homemade table linen, which have been rescued, and given a new life and purpose.
Excellent for sewing onto bags or accessories as a statement decorative feature, or simply using as buttons, (if you can sew a big enough button hole!) They would make a great gift for an embroiderer, or textile lover.

There are three covered buttons made from metal in this pack. Each is covered with a different section from an old hand embroidered tray cloth, featuring clusters of flowers from a cottage garden border.
Each button measures 4cm in diameter

Hi there and welcome to my shop. Here you will find old embroideries, vintage fabrics and sparkling remnants made into something pretty and practical once again. I re-stock slowly but surely, so do keep coming back for a browse.
As I try to recycle where I can, your order will arrive wrapped in clean, recycled packaging from my hoard.
Thank you for visiting me at Folksy.

I have a large collection of vintage hand embroideries, and so often they are damaged, tea stained and threadbare. Even so, I can’t bear to throw them away. Covering buttons is my way of extending the life of these little treasures.
These florals have a lovely Spring time freshness, and I love the way they represent an old fashioned cottage garden border.
