Hello friends! We are happy to announce that we are expanding, with the goal of being open to the public much more frequently! We will be closed until construction is complete, hopefully soon in the New Year. Once we have completion dates finalized, we will update this space. Our goal is weekly open shop days and quarterly open houses. We will also resume regular in person classes (with online options as well). 2024 will be an exciting year for us! Stay tuned!
Upcoming Dates
Future Dates TBA after our expansion is complete (this will be in the New Year)
A miniature glass-covered mossy world of forest friends!
The five hand-formed pins are:
The pins are made by hand by an artist in Kyoto who specializes only in making miniature pins. We absolutely love that this is a thing...that someone gets to spend their days not only making miniatures, but only those that are made into sewing pins.
The cork base is topped with mossy green textured fabric that is packed densely to hold pins. The glass cloche encloses your forest environment.
Dimensions: 2"d x 3-7/8"h with glass cover in place; pins are 38mm long
Each pin cushion and set of pins comes boxed.
