Victorian Posie zip brooch Purple hues

zippityDoodahs are quirky brooches and accessories handstitched from zips. they make a thoughtful gift for someone special, or the perfect finish to an ensemble, and have even been spotted on Shortland st.

Lately I've been stitching little posies of mini zip flowers from my ZippityDooDah brooches. I was inspired by vintage victorian brooches and challenged myself to make perfect zip posies.
This posey is made from delightlful miniature roses in various hues of purple and lilac. Some have silver teeth which add a little sparkle. A fantastic finishing flourish on a jacket, coat, hat or bag.

Carefully handstitched from vintage zips, neatly finished on the reverse with a handstitched backing and brooch clasp.

You can also pin it to a velvet ribbon and tie it around your wrist for a glamorous corsage or even a neck choker. Or tie it as a headband or scarf tie.

I can also convert it from a brooch to a hair accessory by changing the brooch clasp to either a hairslide or a hair pin, please specify if you would like it as a hair accessory ( an extra charge of $1.50 to cover the cost of slide/pin applies, a charge of $3 for a silver colour headband)

I carefully wrap each zippitydoodah in acid free tissue paper before sending, and can gift wrap on request.
