Project Update: π PIZZA PINZ 2!?
Hey Pizza lovers β€οΈ
I'm thinking about cooking up some new pizza slices for y'all and wanted to gauge some interest. Would you mind voting in the poll down below to let me know if you want another round of Pizza Pinz. New slices packaged in mini greasy pizza boxes π¦
I also noticed I have a few outstanding Pizza Pinz pre-orders to go out. I'll get on those right away.
I also wanted to let everyone know my newest enamel pin crowdfunding project FANTASY has ONLY 1 WEEK LEFT!
FANTASY β a collection of enamel pins celebrating some of my favorite fantasy genre odds 'n ends.
If you pledge to FANTASY, you can add-on all my Pizza Pinz designs if you wanted some more π

Project Update: π RESULTS: Should Pineapple be on pizza?
The VERY FIRST UPDATE on the Pizza Pinz campaign asked a simple yet age-old question: Should pineapple be on pizza?
I wanted to settle this debate once and for all. A poll would not suffice. Telling me what you prefer wasn't good enough. Yelling at me sure wouldn't work. What we needed were REAL results with REAL stakes! And nothing speaks louder than the almighty dollar π€
So let me refresh your memory on how I decided to end this debate: I made a pineapple lover enamel pin and a pineapple hater enamel pin. Whichever pin got ordered the most would settle the debateππ« Out of nearly 500 backers, exactly 100 of you voted with your wallets. And since exactly 100 of you voted, doing the math was easy. Thank you.
Feast your eyes on the results ππ
So there you have it folks, the age-old debate is officially, overwhelmingly, absolutely over! Pineapple DOES belong on pizza and now we have the proof ππ Thank you to all who voted and be sure to rock those Pineapple lover pins whenever possible. And to the 16 dark souls who said NO, I'm watching you. Watching you closely.
Thanks again, and if you're reading this before February 7th at 1 PM PST, there's still time to back my next enamel pin project β Movie Moths π¬ At the time of me writing this, there are ONLY 16 HOURS LEFT so be sure to CLICK HERE and support β€οΈ
I have a few cool campaigns up my sleeve for 2023, so be sure to stay connected and stay tuned!

Project Update: β¨ Next Project Sneak Peek β Movie Moths
Hey friends! Hope you are enjoying your Pizza Pinz!
I wanted to give you all a personal sneak peak of a brand new movie-themed enamel pin project I've been working on that's launching soon on TUESDAY, JANUARY 17th right here on BackerKit!
BUT WAIT! My wife Katie Bacigalupi is launching a crowdfunding project on the exact same day! It's her very first crowdfunding project and I think you should help show her some β€οΈ
Both of these new crowdfunding projects are a part of Pintopia β a series of small scale enamel pin projects from a diverse group of creators collectively launching on Crowdfunding by BackerKit!
I've spent the last month organizing, educating, and collaborating with a small cohort of artists and pin designers to launch 20+ enamel pin projects ALL AT ONCE! It's a little wild, it's a little risky, but it's 100% something you all should keep your eyes on. The lineup of artists and pins is just epic.
If you wanna follow along and see who else is participating, be sure to visit the main PINTOPIA PAGE and see what else is on offer. But sign up for Movie Moths and History of Floral Fads first of course π
See you all on Tuesday, January 17th at 10 AM PST for the launch of Pintopia!

Project Update: π¦ Pizza Pinz are 100% Shipped!
Hey all! Just wanted to check in and let you know that 100% of the Pizza Pinz orders are shipped, and hopefully in your hands now. Phew! That was a whole lotta pizza-themed work but everything got designed, manufactured, and shipped pretty much all according to plan. Feels good to get these pinz out into the world. I hope you enjoy them as much as I've enjoyed making them.
There may be a few international orders working their way to you, so if you are not USA based, hold tight as they are on their way. And a couple folks messaged me mentioning a pin missing or mismatched. Those orders will be (re) shipping on Saturday π
To commemorate this moment, here is a pic of me on my way to the local USPS shipping out the last Pizza Pinz bag.
Otherwise, it looks like we are good to go and dream about the potential of Pizza Pinz 2 π
