Create one of my original brush designs.

 

The Hairpin Tampico Brush was inspired by the winding hairpin curves of the Black Hills of South 

Dakota, where I lived until fourth grade. I designed this brush to be sturdy, comfortable in the hand, and to have a firmer tampico bristle than many traditional brush designs, making it exceptionally useful for detailed cleaning. It's one of those brushes you'll find yourself reaching for again and again.

 

I use mine for:

  • In my kitchen, cleaning up dry messes on the counter (flour, for instance).
  • Dusting stair railings and balusters
  • Cleaning cabinet ledges and trim
  • Dusting picture and artwork framesReaching tight corners
  • Detailing my vehicle (avoid plastic surfaces—cotton or microfiber is the safest choice for plastics)
  • Countless other household and workshop tasks
  • Read about the many uses for these brushes here. Scroll down to the Tampico Fiber section.

 

Also available to purchase as a completed brush.  

 

This is a digital file - instructions with pictures on how to make the hairpin brush.  I have had beginner broomsquires test the instructions with success! 

 

Once you place your order, the digital file will be sent to you via the email you provide in your order.  You will need standard broom-making tools to make this brush - see list below.  A beginner broomsquire can make this brush, but a little bit of experience is helpful!  You will be able to use your own supplies, or purchase needed supplies at Just Whisk Away.  

 

Please note that a kit is also available for purchase here.

 

You will get a link to download the instructions on the THANK YOU page as you checkout, OR,  the site sends the file to the email address that you provide at checkout.  Please note the digital file that the site sends will only be available for 30 days - you need to download the document and save it on your hard drive!
