First published during the credit-crunch years, this archive note had a simple idea: refresh a wearable jacket or jumper with a small accessory instead of replacing it.

A handmade linen rose

LinenMe’s handmade rose brooches were offered in natural linen, white and brighter colours. The original photograph shows the flower’s layered fabric shape; this is an archive image, not a claim that the pictured brooch is currently in stock.

Ways to wear a fabric brooch

Pin a linen rose to a jacket lapel, scarf, hat or handbag. A brooch can add colour to a familiar outfit without changing the whole wardrobe. Check the pin back and choose a sturdy fabric layer so the accessory does not pull or mark delicate cloth.

Use fabric flowers beyond clothing

The original article also suggested placing these flowers at a dining setting. Keep them separate from food and remove them before using the napkin. For a sewing project, explore LinenBeauty’s linen clothing fabrics; for finished garments, browse LinenMe’s current clothing collection.
