About Us

Hello and welcome to Buttons & Things Co – we’re a small, family-run business in Cornwall with a big love for buttons, buckles and all things crafty. Whether you sew, knit, or just enjoy adding a personal touch to your makes, we’ve got something to inspire you—from novelty designs to timeless classics and plenty in between.

We launched in 2020, but with over 30 years of haberdashery know-how behind us, we’ve been collecting, sourcing and creating buttons for decades. Our range includes pieces from across the world, plus exclusive designs we’ve created right here in Carbis Bay, including our Inspired by Cornwall collection—textile and button packs full of seaside colour, coastal textures and a little local magic.

You’ll find us online (we post worldwide, and yes—even the BBC and Sky have shopped with us!), and out and about at ICHF craft shows around the UK. If you're passing by, come and say hello—we love meeting fellow crafters.

Thanks for visiting. We hope you find something that sparks a bit of creative joy—and if you ever need help choosing or just want to chat buttons, we’re always here.

Love,
Lou & Simon ❤️
