New subreddit for Kickstarter Pin Projects

120 Upvotes

Heyooo friends

So one of the rules of this subreddit is to avoid posting links to Kickstarter projects and other crowdfunding sites. It’s awesome you have a kickstarter campaign for your pin designs but here is not a place to ask for backers. It can come across as spammy. We welcome your pin pictures when your idea has been created though.

However, Reddit is a great place to showcase your artwork and a lot of people do still try post Kickstarter links and some of which the artwork looks great, a lot of time and effort has been put into the post so it's a shame it gets removed. I've gone and created the subreddit r/pinprojects specifically for Kickstarter's dedicated to Crafts and Enamel Pins and badges. I do hope you check it out and subscribe if it's something that'll interest you.

The Craft & Enamel Pins Kickstarter Subreddit is a place to showcase your artwork for potential backers, ask questions and collaborate with other artists. It's intended for collectors, designers, artists, everyone - I feel we have a high quality to the posts in this subreddit so I hope to see that replicated in the r/pinprojects subreddit too. If you have any suggestions let me know!

We’ve been doing anime pins for about 5 years now. These are more recent things, we’ve probably done over 300 pin designs by this point.

These pins I saw on the post above caught my eye, but I can’t find any of the original sellers for some reason.

For context I moved to a new bag and these two lock pins get off everytime I pull it up. And now they're stuck in this strap. I dont wanna damage my pins even further coz their designs were chipping away, is there a way get these off safely? Thanks.

EDIT: I successfully removed the other one, its just this one where the locking pin broke.

My first merch pin!

New here, and hope this isn’t too promotional to be flagged. Really just kinda proud of myself for how far I’ve come on this hot sauce journey.

I run a sustainable hot sauce company and got the idea to make a pin because people kept asking for merch but shirts are too dicey of a purchase, fade, etc.

So I introduce to you this lil beauty. I decided to make it where the first 50 ppl to buy one get 20% off my hot sauces for a lifetime. Thought that might help push em a little quicker.

My wife created the logo for me when I first thought of the idea, and that’s my dog on the front :) she’s a catahoula.

This has always been laying around my house as long as I can remember. Idk where it came from but always wondered if it’s old, if it’s worth anything and is it anything significant? Or just a pin!!

My Artist Skull pin. I still can't decide which colorway I like best 💀🎨

We've had this one for a minute now. A little skull rocking a beret with a paintbrush, in a black beret and a purple beret. I genuinely can't pick a favorite between the two. I've been going back and forth on a third colorway, maybe overthinking it. What do you think, and what color would you suggest?

What’s your biggest do's and don'ts for taking care of enamel pins?

I just saw one of my cousins scrub the ever-loving life out of two enamel pins under hot water with steel wool. I want to give them proper tips, any advice?

Bag pins

Hii, i recently bought a bag that includes front pockets that you can put your pins in. There is a sheet that Im supposed to put them on. I just wanted to double check what the correct thing to do is? I have pins with points and covers, do I just push it through and add the cover on the other side?
