Red Heart Brooch Red Felt Brooch Pin Romantic Gift Of Love Handstitched by Folk Stroke


Red Heart Brooch Red Felt Brooch Pin Romantic Gift Of Love Handstitched Accessory Handmade by Folk Stroke on its First Anniversary
 LOVE! The most prettiest feeling on earth! It doesn't need any special occassion to be expressed.

You should not wait for any such reason to wear this sweet heart brooch pin either. This is a perfect gift for every reason, for every season! Spread love everyday! Why wait?

Size: 2.2" H x 2" W (5 x 5.5cm) approximately.

Handcut, lovingly 100% handmade by me using wool felt handstitched with 100% white cotton embroidery threat in running stitch. I stuffed it lightly with toy stuffer & handstitched a sturdy steel brooch pin back to the back so that you can give heart beat to your bag, scarf, headband, hat, even pillows. No glue used.

This brooch made my heart full of emotions and love while I was making it! That is what it is for, isn't it?

Available for purchase at Etsy.
