Wholesale Catalogue 2013 Jewellery, Accessories & Wearable Pincushions, Handmade in Yorkshire by Paula Perrins
...Buttons and Patches and the cold wind blowing, the days pass quickly when I am sewing....
......Inspired by the sewing box, the button tin and our
grandmothers’ dressing tables. Millinery flowers, shell
buttons and cotton lace, old books and letters.....
I create modern, wearable pieces that hint at a bygone age
when ladies wore hats, when we threw much less away and when
women's skills with a needle and thread sustained comfort
and beauty in the home.

A b o u t
I'm Paula Perrins and I live and work in Bingley, a small but perfectly
formed town in the beautiful Aire Valley. This area is steeped in a rich
history of textiles and industry with Sir Titus Salt's model village
and World Heritage Site Saltaire at its heart.
My work with Wychbury together with my lifestyle and influences over the
last two years have inspired a unique, personal collection of work that I
now offer to both retail and trade customers.
All of my pieces are individually designed and handmade by me in my home
workshop. My work is inspired by my love of fabrics and sewing and my
fascination with historical domesticity. I love to work with silk
flowers, vintage buttons, lace trims and all forms of haberdashery to
make my collections of wearable pincushions and sewing accessories, neat
jewellery based on fabric covered buttons and elegant floral accessories
including Remembrance Poppies and bridal pieces, all with the nostalgic,
romantic feel of days gone by.

WEARABLE PINCUSHION COLLECTION
Stylish and practical, our vintage-inspired, wearable pincushions are each
created by hand using beautiful fabric prints, cotton lace trims and vintage
mother of pearl buttons. Unique, eye-catching pieces with a nostalgic twist,
if you are looking for something a little different, our pincushions are the
perfect treat for stitchers and non-stitchers alike.
Look stylish while you're sewing and keep your pins handy while you do it! All
pincushions feature ‘antique bronze’ settings and are all supplied with
decorative pins and a gift box. Many fabric designs are available.

COVERED BUTTON JEWELLERY & ACCESSORY COLLECTION
Inspired by the sewing box, a jewellery range to compliment my wearable
pincushions made from fabric covered buttons. Using up the tiniest scraps of
my favourite fabrics, vintage shell buttons and antique bronze findings, I
have designed earrings, pendants and necklaces in separates and matching
sets. Matching hair clips are also available.

FABRIC FLORAL ACCESSORIES
Inspired by the collection of Victorian Millinery at Cliffe Castle Museum in
Keighley and based on real species of flowers, the versatility and charm of
these hand-stitched flowers makes the range a popular choice for weddings.
Corsages and hair accessories can be made to order in a myriad of colour
combinations for brides, bridesmaids and guests as well as making a statement
with everyday outfits.
Available in colours to suit the season, I use the carefully selected petals
of artificial flowers to create poppies, pansies and snowdrops. Embellished
with machine and hand stitching, metallic thread and beads. Wired velvet
leaves in lush green adorn many of the pieces for a sumptuous, vintage feel.
A range of deep red velvet poppy accessories are available throughout the
year with a donation being made by Wychbury to The Royal British Legion Poppy
Appeal from every piece sold.

OUR BRAND, CREATED BY HAND
At Wychbury we love to enhance our unique brand with packaging we make by
hand. I am an avid collector of vintage printing sets and stamps,
particularly the British toy launched in the 1950s, The John Bull Printing
Outfit. Wychbury’s brand is often created using the lettering from these
sets.
The backing cards for earrings, pendants and hair accessories are distressed
with tea and heat before being hand stamped with lettering and ornate corner
designs. The edges of the cards are torn and singed for an antique look.
My wearable pincushion and fabric button sets are packaged in natural card
boxes, again printed with vintage stamps. Wychbury swing tags get the heat
and stamp treatment too. The latest Wychbury Designs branding is a
continuation of this theme with a more Victorian edge.
