If you want to remove the button to make it tighter or even more loose you can do this just by re-sewing the button . I have used felted wool in a creamy white and tan for under the vintage buttons to construct the "flower" ! Also on the lace is a row of teeny little silk "buttons" , they were on the lace to begin with so I left them intack as I think they are just adorable and add to the cuff !
Is lined inside and a one of a kind !!

$32.00
I have created an adorable paperclay bunny ! She is holding a precious boquet of vintage milinary flowers , and there are also some at her feet ( she just picked them ) ! Standing on a distressed wood base among moss and flowers, her clothing has been dusted in glitter for a little sparkle ! Attached at the neck is a bow made with vintage velvet ribbon in a cream color. She also has a crown of moss with a tiny floral bud !The clothing on the bunny is a soft pink with white dots and a soft green for the pants, the vintage florals are a soft pink and white.
She stands 8 3/4" tall.
Because this is a very fragile item I would prefer to ship alone so she would arrive safe !
