Noodle Love: Snek Enamel Pins for Queer Pride & Colorful Fun

Support my New Calico Purride Chibi Kitty Subtle Pride Flag Enamel Pins Kickstarter!
over 3 years ago – Wed, Nov 04, 2020 at 10:47:19 AM

Hello, folks!

As supporters of my previous LGBT pride pins project, I thought you might be interested in supporting my newest (hopeful) line of pins: Calico Purride! They're brightly-colored, hard-fired enamel pins shaped like playful chibi calico kitties. Their spots are in the colors of various pride flags! Check them out below and back them on Kickstarter from today through December 2!

The Kickstarter says February 2021 for fulfillment but if you select express shipping at the end of the campaign, I should be able to get you your pins before Christmas, if you or friends and family celebrate. This will depend on popularity, design, and your location, but if you need them in time for a holiday gift, I'll do my absolute best and I'm confident I can meet most requests. Here's a closer look!

We're Hokum & Snark. Geeky. Queer. Proud. Hang in there, seek solidarity and love. Resist. We're here.

Roll for Pride Pride Flag d20 Enamel Pins Launched!
over 4 years ago – Tue, Nov 12, 2019 at 10:12:54 AM

Good afternoon backers! 

Thank you again for your support for our snek pride flag designs and making that happen! The pins continue to sell on our Etsy store and we're super excited to get more love and pride out there!

Speaking of, I've launched a new project on Kickstarter today, with a bright and colorful d20 design and 7 pride flags available at the onset. I especially love the design that is 10 pride flags all on one d20, one per face! There are another 6 pride flag designs available to unlock as stretch goals, too, and like the snek Kickstarter, backers will decide which ones to unlock! 

We hope you'll check out the campaign! If you're not into gaming, you can also pledge and donate a pin to the Tabletop Gaymers organization. We'll match your donation with another pin for double the impact. This non-profit supports queer gamers and allies in the gaming industry and hands out pronoun ribbons and swag at conventions in the US and Canada. 

I hope you're doing well as 2019 winds down. Blessings to you all!

Maury

Pins are in the mail!

Hello, awesome backers!

I'm happy to report that the pins arrived, they look gorgeous, and we have packaged and mailed them to you! I didn't put them onto a backing card this time, as the only cards I have are for my Cryptid Cuties line. Sneks are not cryptids, they are thankfully very real!

I kept your pin in the plastic bag to prevent it from being scratched and we got it on its way as soon as possible.

I would love to see some pictures of your pins on your jackets, hats, backpacks, pin boards, etc.! If you share on social media, it'd be great if you use #hokum&snark (my new store brand) or #noodlelove or some such. 

The pins will be up in the Etsy Store this week, in case someone spots your snek heart and wants to know where they can get one. 

Thanks again for your support and I hope you enjoy your pins!

Pins in Production!

Thank you, backers, for completing your surveys in Backerkit!

I have placed the order for the pin designs, and have received the mock-up designs. They look great! I approved them, and production begins this week.

I expect about 4-6 weeks before I receive the pins in hand, and then I will begin bundling them for shipping to you! So barring any issues, you should have your pins no later than mid-May.

Thanks again, and I'll update when I have more news!

The surveys are out! Thank you for your patience!

I decided to use Backerkit and that was a bit of a learning curve and a process! We got everything figured out and approved by them, and the emails went out this morning. Please check your spam or social tabs just in case.

If you don't see an email or deleted it by accident, you can head to this link: https://noodle-love-snek-enamel-pins.backerkit.com/  

Use your Kickstarter email to log in and complete the survey!

The sooner you complete the surveys, the sooner production of the pins can begin!

You'll also have the opportunity to purchase additional pins from this campaign, or other pins I have made previously. The "Ask Me My Pronouns" pins was just featured in O(prah) magazine!

All best,

Maury
