How we made it

Each Lily Faith friend starts with a pen and ink line drawing. Lily gets inspired by her loved ones’ favourite beasts or those she spots while strolling the Devon countryside with her trusty sidekick, Ned. The creatures come 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.
