Tiny Nuts & Bolts
I'm looking for some kind of fastening to hold several plush plates together, the hole size is about 3mm. I bought a standard nut & bolt, but it doesn't exactly tie in with the aesthetics of the purse I am repairing. It has fabric on it so unable to solder anything.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks, anna.

how about a rivet?
What material are the plates made from?
-
how about a handmade rivet from wire or tube?
can tell you how if you need help.

I second the rivet, but don't go to hard on the rivet or you can just turn it into a cutter.

for tiny nuts and bolts try Clerkenwell screws in Clerkenwell Road

Or another thought - how about a watch repairers...?

HS Walsh do watch repair stuff I think.

You can buy a "tap and die" set which makes absolutely minute screws in any material you wish (i think I've seen them on e-Bay because we were thinking about getting one)

Another thought... how about a model shop?
