An original hand-drawn design by me, ‘Pretty Thing’ will add a pop of pink to your day! This statement brooch will look great pinned to any tee, shirt, dress, jacket, bag and more. Where would you pin your ‘Fitzygogo!’ girl?
Inspired by old romance comics and one of my favourite David Bowie songs, this design features one of my retro characters with her name ‘Pretty Thing’ written in fun vintage lettering floating above her. This brooch would make a great gift or a fun treat for yourself. Kids of the 80s who remember shrinkies will really get a kick out of this item.
To make this piece the black outlines are first hand screenprinted onto artist’s grade translucent shrink plastic. Each one is then cut out and hand coloured using yellow and pink artist’s pens. Next they are carefully baked and several layers of varnish is applied. Finally a silver brooch pin is attached to the back using super glue.
‘Pretty Thing’ is a limited edition shrink plastic brooch, you had better catch her while you still can!
Each shrink plastic brooch is handmade here in the UK. The size and hand-colouring may slightly vary making each one unique and special.
The varnish will help to protect ‘Pretty Thing’, however I suggest you keep her dry. That means out of the rain and the washing machine!
Size: 1.96in (W) x 2.16in (H) 5cm (W) x 5.5cm (H)
Your pin will come attached to a backing card, wrapped in tissue paper and carefully sealed in a hardback postage envelope.
UK orders: Brooches will be sent out via Royal Mail First Class and will arrive in approximately 1 – 3 business days.
International orders: Your pin will be posted via Royal Mail International Standard and will be delivered in approximately 5 – 10 days depending on the country of destination.
