Smoke tests are out!!

Assuming we didn't mess anything up, the rest of the surveys will go out later this week :D

We'll be posting another update once we're ready to lock orders and send everything in for production. 

Quick note!

If you qualify for reduced shipping (if you backed my collab partner or our friends over at Arledge Comics), you will see a full shipping charge on your order. Shipping credits will be applied after your survey is filled out, but before we actually charge cards. Please trust the process. We gotchu :D

Until next time!!

Colorway Update!
about 2 months ago – Mon, Feb 02, 2026 at 09:29:55 AM

Hey backers!


You've made some requests for recolors, so here are some updated designs we're adding to the campaign! These do not need to be unlocked; they're added to the first round of offerings and will be available in the pledge manager. 

Below we have: Polyamorous (new and legacy colorways), genderfluid, and fictosexual (to be quite honest, I'd not heard of this one before. You learn something new every day!).



Ally Pins


There's been a request for ally pins; and to be honest, I'm not all-too-sure how I'd make that colorway work out. The ally flag is a black and white 'A' shape on a rainbow background. With the size and linework of the pins, adding screen printing to the rainbow designs would look a little messy. :(

While we don't plan on an ally colorway, we do have these designs awaiting a mock-up from our manu. We've been offering these as acrylic pins for a couple years, and they've been really popular at Pride events. Since we've raised enough in this campaign for a stretch goal, we'll be giving these an upgrade. 


(When I say a couple years, I mean I dug these out of my 2023 folder!)

These will be 1.5" and printed on silver metal with a glitter epoxy coating. And officially added to the campaign once we have mock ups back!

Other Suggestions


If we missed a flag, just reach out and we'll try to find a solution. :) There's a little over a week left of Pintopia. Let's finish strong!

Got more room in your book bag?

Hey Fam!


We funded! Thank you, all of you, for your support! <3

I see we got a request for polyam book stacks. So I'm gonna get busy on preparing those colorways. :)
Are there other flags I missed that you'd like to see? Drop a comment and let me know!

Stretch Goals~


I've been playing with ideas for genre mini pins. Like "sapphic stories" or the like. Would y'all be interested in something like that? Suggestions of what you'd really like to see? Hit me up in the comment section!

Free pins!!


I wanna give a shout out to my cross collab partner, Sharron. She's funding some really cool interchangeable photography pins. You get a free pin from either of us when you back both.
