A cute little collection of cute fruits with little faces and rosy cheeks! Wear them by themselves or pair them up! Perfect for putting a bit of colour and cuteness in your day!

8cm tall x 7.5cm wide

A huge range of handmade brooches, created using recycled plastic and fabric off cuts. 

Each one is cut out of the original fabric, glued to the recycled plastic, then cut out again, then another fabric glued to the back and it is cut out again!  Finally 2-3 coats of sealer are applied front & back and a stainless steel brooch finding is glued on.  They take many hours to make, but ensure as little waste as possible comes from the creation of other Whoopee products, such as our Aprons!

***Please note that these are very handmade products, and made from recycled materials, therefore will not be perfect, that is why handmade is so great, ech is unique! They will vary from brooch to brooch, and may have slight differences from one to the other.
