Layered corsages are little stacks of different fabric circles, sewn together to form a layered flower. They can be made from tiny scraps of leftover fabric and transformed into lovely gifts with all sorts of uses. Once you start making these flowers, you will not want to stop. As you only need tiny circles of each different fabric it is often worth making several flowers at a time.
Button bracelets are perfect little gifts for big girls as well as little girls. The choice and colour of buttons that you use means these can vary from candy coloured childish to classy mother-of-pearl cool. Never throw a button away: hoard them in a tin and reclaim them from all those shirts and pieces of clothing that are too well loved to wear. Raid the tins in charity shops or even buy whole lots on line.

Before the cufflinks and clothes in general started to be the result of mass production, in the late 20th century, the shirts were tailor made and tailors created the cufflinks and process allowed them to be very creative.
