In Victorian times,  men that were away from home or at war were unable to have their wives attend to their mending needs so their wives created a mini-kit called a housewife (later shortened to Hussif) that did the job for them. This Housewife kit contained all the necessary items their husbands would require to mend tears or replace buttons.

    Each one of these kits contains a pair of quality good scissors, buttons, needles, thread, and period correct material very similar to what was used in the 1800's.
