This Pride, support a queer artist and take a stand for yourself and your community! Our pride pins for this year offer a "Nice" pin for those who like things staying positive and for all our allies-- then we have some pins for those of us ready to stop taking shit at every political turn.
Pick up your baseball bats and your guillotines (in pin form!) and make sure people know right where you stand.
This gold metal pin features soft enamel and an epoxy fill with two posts, and measures 1.5" across. An ideal neutral and positive statement pin that makes clear that you support the queer community in all its forms without being too in your face. Features the typical rainbow flag colors, the colors of the progress flag which includes trans colors and the black and brown members of the queer community, while also featuring a complete circle of purple for the Intersex community.
THE FRIENDLY GUILLOTINE - $15
This silver metal pin features soft enamel and an epoxy fill with two posts, and measures 1.5" tall, 1" across. This pin reaches well beyond pride, but comes from that space first and foremost for this queer! This is a great piece for most any groups, those who wish to have bodily autonomy, those who aren't interested in having kings, and those who want to be able to pee in peace. A truly all-purpose pin!
THROW DOWN LIKE A... - $20
This black metal pin features soft enamel and an epoxy fill with two posts, and measures 1.44" tall, 2.4" across. Featuring the lesbian flag colors across the flowers, this scroll-wrapped baseball bat reminds us that queer rights were never just given. There is no shame in being gay, and we're no weaker than our cis het counterparts. So take this a reminder of your power and resilience!

In 2025, we released a Pins for Pups collection in collab with a local Denver Pup, Pup Cabe! Queer Pride includes kink, no matter what anyone else thinks on the matter. And you can still grab those pins here on this campaign, including:
The Pup Hood Pins, at 1.75" tall and 1.3" wide, features a black metal pin with soft enamel and epoxy fill in one of 13 colors to match your basic color spread of pup hoods.
The Pup Flag Pins, at 1.25" tall and 1.75" wide, features a black metal pin with soft enamel and epoxy fill in one of 6 pride flag options (Progress, Pup, Gay Male, Trans, Bi, and Pan) to match your identity and style! The Throw Me a Bone Pin, at 1.3" tall and 1.75" wide, features a black metal pin with soft enamel and epoxy fill. Sometimes you just need someone to throw you a bone! The WOOF! Pin, at 1.175" tall and 1.75" wide, features a black metal pin with soft enamel and epoxy fill. This pop-arty style is ideal for anyone, but has special meaning for those of us who know how to Woof at a good lucking fella!
Last year, starting in Autumn, the Seasonal Goblin pins began. And in this project, our first Spring and Summer Goblin pins will join them to close our first cycle of Seasonal Goblin Pins!
These pins are all limited run pins, with 100 lazer etched pins that show which of the 100 your pin is, making them ideal collector's pins!
We begin in Spring, to welcome in...
The Gobling in Bloom!
This pin measures 2.4" across with its extended ear details, and explores the Goblin as a tree, re-awakening to life after winter has closed. On its head, we see the animals return as well, bringing the promise of new life beyond the quiet and solemn despair of winter.
And we also now welcome our Summer pin...
The Beach Day Gob!
What better way to celebrate summer than with time on the beach. This sand-made Goblin is a cool and shaded home for a new resident, ready to party hard right up to the last minute, when the water will reclaim its form. Like Summer, enjoy the moment while you have it and don't look back. **This pin will feature glitter enamel for the sand to make it pop!
These Seasonal Pins will remain in our stock until they're all gone, and you can grab previous Seasonal Pins, as well as their pin banners, in the add-ons.
No AI was used in this campaign!
Why Does It Matter? AI generated art is bad for many reasons.
We know it steals art from real artists. The CEOs of the AI companies have said in court they need special permission to use art without credit or asking permission or their algorithms won't work. When someone generates a gorgeous image, you can't credit whose art it took apart and merged together to make it.
It's terrible for the environment, uses a ton of energy and poisons the water in the communities where the data centers that run this stuff lives.
It's a failing business. If you've ever heard someone say that AI is the future, that it's inevitable, ask them why it bleeds hundreds of millions of dollars then. Ask why Disney backed out of their $1 billion dollar buy in on an AI video generator. Ask why companies have to hire humans back because the tokens they use to generate code are getting too expensive.
You miss out on real human experience. Such as...
The journey to figure out how the summer goblin pin would look took time and iterations-- and not iterations where I asked a machine to try again but tweak it a bit this time. No-- I shared my own work with peers, asked for assistance and opinions. I tried different ideas out. In talking to another artist, I figured I should do a glitter enamel for the sand instead of trying to sprinkle little details throughout it. With other people, I realized this looked lifeless because of the eyes, so I tried sea glass eyes and made it super creepy. Then I slapped some glasses on that bad boy and I was in business.
But because this is human made by me, when I wanted the shell-nose to start behind the glasses then stick out in front of them closer to its tip, I could do that! Because I'm a human with experience. I knew that the Crab's little legs needed a black backfill to be made a pin, they couldn't just be tiny dangly bits. Because I'm a human and I made all the elements, I kept the shell design around from the old eyes to put on the ear because it meant something to me, and I wanted the detail there. I moved it around and found where it should go because I made every little element and could grab and move them. AI generation can't do any of this.
So don't let AI rob you of your creative spirit. Make art, learn about it, and find your favorite path forward through it.

Backing this project is a pledge of support to the project itself, it is not the purchasing of items. I will be doing everything I can to deliver all pledged items as part of fulfilling this project with your help, and have a track record of over 25 plus projects of doing so, but there is no 100% guarantee that you'll receive your items with crowdfunding. By pledging you are recognizing this and agreeing to it.
There are many other pins from past projects that will be available when we reach the Pledge Manager. But you can take a look at the other pins you'd like to make sure you get when the pledge manager opens up after the campaign is done here:
