Description

These quirky brooches are made from vintage - retro or unwanted zips that I have collected, disassembled and reworked into a funky flower corsage. They have even been featured on C4 Cleospace and spotted on an episode of Shortland st! They appeal to a wide variety of people so make a great gift!
Each brooch is handmade, so no two are exactly the same.
Size approx 7cm across, I can make them bigger by request.

Antique roses are made from a selection of coloured zips carefully hand sewn together to make a rose. The inner petals are made from regular zips and the outer petals from metal tooth zippers, which lend a bit of special sparkle and jewel like qualities.
They can also be converted to a hairclip or headband just ask. You can pin them to piece a velvet ribbon and wear it as a corsage on your wrist!
Looks great on your favourite jacket or coat lapel,or use them to dress up a jumper,bag, or shirt.
