Sometimes when you have finished sewing that garment, completed that bag you've been making or reached the end of that craft project you've been working on, it can occasionally look a little unfinished and like it is missing something. Fear not! Here at Calico Laine, we have plenty of Haberdashery items that you can use to add a little embellishment to your project and make it truly unique. In today's blog, we'll be talking about a few products of ours that we recommend for this purpose, keeping ease of use in mind as well. Felt - This fabric is available both by the metre and in squares of sizes varying from 9" x 9" all the way up to 24" x 24". This is a popular choice amongst customers who are tackling a craft project with children, as it is easy to cut, glue and even draw on. As an added bonus, it does not fray, so there is no need to worry about hems or neat edges. We stock a lot of colours, so you are bound to find one that matches the colour scheme of whatever you are working on. Buttons - Despite being a functioning fastening in sewing projects, buttons can also be used for embellishment. This is a frequent style choice even in clothing on the high street. Buttons can be used as a little piece of detail on an otherwise plain project, otherwise why not go all out and use a big, eye-catching button to draw people's attention? Ribbon - This product is one of our most popular Haberdashery items. With an incredible amount of choice between colours, types and widths, ribbon can be used for so many different purposes. A lot of our customers like to use it for decorating cakes, whereas others choose to use it for creating bows to add as a feature to a bag or brooch pin for a piece of clothing. Decorative Flowers - Our artificial flowers are available in a huge range of different sizes, types and colours, and can be used for everything from cakes and hats to bags and headbands. My personal favourite is our large satin organza rose - this beautiful item is a fantastic choice for wedding bouquets and decoration, and they are sold in packs of three. Have you used any of these items for your own embellishment in your own sewing and craft projects? Do you have a favourite item that we perhaps haven't mentioned here?
