Welcome to the home of recycling beautifully. I design and hand make button necklaces and bracelets, Tote and clutch bags, duvet covers, play mats, aprons, tea cosies, Cafetiere cosies, single and double oven gloves, pot/pan holders, AGA lid covers, peg bags, make mobile phone (or glasses) cases. All of my products are made from a range upcycled natural fibre fabric remnants and off cuts, including a lot of denim, linen, silk ties, and quality cotton shirts, and of course many many buttons culled from countless much-loved button tins found in dusty drawers and cupboards. I clean everything up, and away I go.
So I am upcycling and source as much as possible from charity shops, Jumble Sales, donations and retro/vintage outlets. Even the packaging I use when posting items to customers is recycled, plus my business cards (which used to be file dividers belonging to my children!
I can also make things to commission, if you have the fabric and/or buttons.
