In sewing and crafts, an embellishment is anything that adds design interest to the piece.[1]
Embellishments allow individuals to express their personal style and identity. Clothing can be a form of self-expression, and the choice of embellishments can communicate one's personality, taste, and cultural background.
Items that normally serve a function may also be used as embellishment. For example:
