Dark Orange Indigenous beaded Heart Lapel Pins for Orange Shirt Day/Every Child Matters.
NOTE: As of Dec 31, 2023 I have donated $30 to the Orange Shirt Society
I am a Metis woman married to a Residential School Survivor. Although I did not experience the horrors of Residential Schools myself, many of my friends and extended family did. It is in their honour that I have been making and selling these small brooches as fundraisers for the Orange Shirt Society. (OrangeShirtDay.org)
They are made of a bright orange felt that I have cut into a heart shape and backed with faux leather. I have then beaded around the pin with neon orange and matte black seed beads and added a pin to the back. Each pin is approximately 2 inches across. They are handcut, so some variation in size is to be expected.
These will not fall off and can be used for many years to show your support for Orange Shirt Day/Every Child Matters/National Indigenous Peoples Day. These are my contribution to the Truth and Reconciliation goals of our Canadian people and government.
$5 Canadian from every pin sold is donated to the Orange Shirt Society. Indigenous Beadwork for Indigenous Healing.

Thank you for visiting my shop and Many Blessings!
**NOTE: I am a real person who handcrafted each and every piece myself from design to completion. I process orders as they are purchased, so, depending on the size of my work que (how many orders ahead of yours) it can take me between 2 days to 2 weeks to create and ship your piece to you. I thank you in advance for your understanding of what truly handmade means and I appreciate your business.
