Enamel pin project for my frail snogs! Frail snogs are snails who wear their best friend a frog instead of a shell. These will be soft dye pins in multiple variants. Starting with 1.25” pins then after we unlock a handful, we’ll work towards 1.75” pins!
Image shows the frail snog and his story that’s posted below
Once upon a time there was a snail. He loved his best friend so much. His best friend was a frog. He decided that the only way he could get to spend enough time with him is if he were to replace his shell with his friend. Now they’re free to travel across the lands together!
Image shows the initial pins back stamp and design info
Each pin will be a 1.25” dyed soft enamel with uv print design. There are no cells with enamel fill on front. This makes us able to do different features, expressions, shapes and designs for all variants. The back of the pin will have a matching lil frail snog and if applicable the name of the artist who helped design it! If stretch goals are reached we will unlock more larger frail snogs, but I’ll have the first batch of 1.75” pins available for purchase only in this campaign until the end of fulfillment
Image shows information on funding goals next to the frail snog art
Our first goal of $300 will unlock 2 variants! Each goal after that can unlock new variants every $100 and a new size at $800 The first unlocks will be 1.25” and the second size will be 1.75”
Variants will sometimes be voted on so make sure to check updates!

hi I’m Darling or Summer Lover of shrek, frogs, twilight and all Cryptids Disabled cutie Mom of gremlins Maker of professionally bad art
One day I decided to start making pins as a way to fund my ever growing pin collection. Since then I’ve branched into other products with my designs and even started selling my paintings. Sharing my art with others makes me happy. I also really love using it as a way to donate to marginalized communities and animal shelters. I’m a disabled stay at home mom of two, running this business and homeschooling the kids. Life is chaotic and messy and I love it.
I live sell on whatnot often and stream art shows there. You can find the majority of my art listed on whatnot. Pins and a handful of other products are available on Etsy. If you like secondhand clothing and vintage knickknacks, well you can find that with me too.
Image includes the outline of the frailsnog and short info about the coloring contest.
For this campaign I’m accepting designs from you for variants! If your design is chosen, you’ll receive 3 pins of it free of charge. The coloring page can be found in updates and it will be left open so we can have plenty of designs to choose from for unlocked variants. Your artist name will also be engraved on the back of your variant so everyone can find you as well. Due to manufacturing processes, some details may need to change on the final product.
Image shows screenshots of previous campaigns. Jack bags raised $1,697 and Mothman raised $1,014
Through backerkit I’ve fulfilled two successful campaigns. One was jack-o’-lantern ita bags and matching enamel pins. This was my first backerkit and a solo project. Mothman and Mates was my project for pintopia 2026 and we unlocked five designs! We unfortunately didn’t unlock Squonk but we did get acrylic pins of him and he will return in my project titled Cry Baby Cryptids
I’ve also ran four preorders outside of backerkit. My rock buddies, spooky minis, pride daisies and ghost cows.
