I’m having a Big Badaboom Bye Bye Brooches Sale because these babies have to go and there is only so many times that my dear family can graciously utter the words ‘Oh another felt brooch! You shouldn’t have!’.
They are now just $3 (less than two quid) in my store with free US shipping and low international shipping.
Don’t get me wrong I’m fond of the little furries but they represent the fruit of an old season and I am ready for the new.
I made them all in the summer of 2009. It was very very hot, I had no car, a toddler and a spark of an idea and so the result was big loud music and brooches. Being the phasical person that I am, I made lots… and then some more and then, more. The brooches were the first thing I started selling in my Etsy store along with some terrible product photos.
How not to do it:
"I just don't understand why these aren't selling?"
The New
The new involves shadow boxes, papercuts, illustration, postcards, prints, writing, collaborating, new babies and many more bright things. Please help me to get there, buy a brooch, ask me for a free brooch (yes, you heard) but help me to say a final and fond farewell to the felt.
