Do you have difficulty remembering your fellow Makeshit Members names? Beaded Brooches to the rescue!
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll be crafting beautiful felt brooches, combining simple embroidery stitches with a touch of beadwork to create one-of-a-kind wearable art. Using colorful felt as our base, you’ll learn how to design, embellish, and finish a brooch that reflects your personal style.
We’ll guide you through basic embroidery and beading techniques, as well as tips for layering textures, securing beads, and backing your brooch for a polished look. Whether your style is whimsical, floral, geometric, or abstract, this is a fun and relaxed way to explore fiber arts on a small scale.
Perfect for beginners and experienced crafters alike — and a lovely project for gifting or keeping!
