We have started a collection of handmade felt brooches based on the county flowers of the United Kingdom – England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales – chosen by the British public for the 2002 Plantlife campaign. You can purchase through our King River Shoppe Etsy store where they will become available from time to time or we can make them on commission (£10 including postage within the UK) and according to your own design preferences. Send us a photo or description and we’ll do up a sample for you.
