Guppin

Remember the Guppies? I guess it was just a matter of time before I started thinking of a way to have their sweet cheeriness around wherever I went haha... Well, I made this pin for a lovely local customer -- a wearable Guppy!

Cut from reclaimed board, this Guppy pin was made with vintage fabric, then carefully handpainted, sanded and varnished. It turned out so cutely, and I got a couple more requests for them, that I've decided to make some for the shop as well, perhaps by Tuesday. In the meantime, "Glub!" (Guppish for "Happy Mother's Day!!" :).

It is amazing as a pin, I love it! you can also sell them as headpieces and bandanas, it would look amazing on little girl's hairs (and big girls of course! :) )
