Anatomy of a Mini Pin This Angel Mini Pin brooch is laser cut from FSC MDF and hand painted using a combination of gouache paint and Little Greene Paint company emulsion paint. Packaged in our beautiful bespoke window boxes, their clever design means that perfectly fit into PIP postal boxes, but also make an impactful retail display. Each of Lily’s design starts with a pen and ink line drawing; with ideas generated in, but also gleaned from her numerous sketchbooks. They are a treasure trove of ideas and snippets of imagery found on her travels over the years. The design comes to life when we laser cut and engrave them from wood, hand painting their features and details. Next we carefully affix a brooch back with hot glue, once set, it’s ready, where it’s pinned is up to you. Hand crafted in nature, they are best suited for sunny days. We take care to tread as lightly as our animal friends. We use recyclable packaging and eco-friendly water based paints.
