Hi, we are Pinbuds. We are a creative couple from Sydney who fell in love with the magic of pins, charms, and all things cute. For years, we spent our weekends behind Artist Alley tables in Australia, Japan, and New Zealand, meeting other collectors and making friends who love the same things we do. We travel to Japan and Korea whenever we get the chance. Wandering through little side streets, discovering new characters, and exploring shops filled with playful accessories always spark new ideas for us. It is where we get a lot of our inspiration. As collectors ourselves, we wanted a bag that could protect and show off the things we love. So we started designing ITA Bags. We tested materials, tried new shapes, listened to feedback, and kept improving. Every bag we release is something we use in our own daily lives. Most of all, we love sharing this hobby with others. It still makes us smile every time someone wears one of our bags or shows us how they decorated theirs. Thank you for being part of our story and letting us be a small part of yours.

Witch Pleas Publishing educates through shared stories. From tabletop roleplaying games over Discord, to storytimes and seminars in libraries or tales traded around the Campfire, we believe the best stories are the ones that give us all a voice.  Collective creation is our passion and our purpose. We’re a team of dice rolling, online chatting, virtual reality designing storytellers who’ve brought our talents together so that others can develop their talents for tales.  We realize this mission by publishing experiential gaming products that teach through doing, not just viewing. Our tabletop roleplaying games are inspired by authentic folklore and classic fiction, shaped through scrupulous scholarly research, and designed by award-winning creators. Our introductory games offer learning through gaming to beginners of all ages, fostering empathy, critical thinking, and social problem solving. Our journals and zines give marginalized voices a forum to be heard, collecting articles, essays, and fiction from scholars focused on alternative experiences and communities. Witch Pleas Publishing was dreamed up on a veranda in Kailua-Kona Hawaii by Gina Funk, a survivor and mother to neurodivergent children, in order to amplify unheard stories. Her life story gave her a relentless desire to empower others whose experiences might be lost or isolated. Coupled with her husband’s knowledge of literature, history, and game design, that dream became a reality and a movement that’s been embraced by a world that needs diversity in a time of division. 

If you can't find it, make it yourself, and make it right: NerdyKeppie's philosophy and business model grew out of one family's need for representation. When Spider Perry's daughter Cat wanted a sturdy, cute transgender Pride yarmulke, the mother/daughter pair scoured the internet and came up dry. Spider took matters into their own hands - literally - and developed the first of NerdyKeppie's products. In the seven years since they sold their first yarmulke, NerdyKeppie has expanded. Now co-owned by Spider & one of his partners, Emet, their shop now centers around two embroidery machines and an industrial sewing machine, and their offerings have grown to over a thousand items: patches, t-shirts, footwear and activewear. Many of those items are made in their home-based studio in Portland, Oregon - and what they can't physically produce is outsourced to a network of manufacturers.
