# Save a custom item or layout for reuse in the campaign editor

Sitecore Send gives you the option to create custom items or layouts that you can save in your newsletter without having to save the entire design as a template. You can save an item you have created from scratch or reused from a specific template, for example, a button, a timer, or any reusable newsletter item or layout.

After you have added items to your newsletter, you can create a custom item or layout in the campaign editor, and then use or delete it later.
