September pin done + Rengoku pin progress

Hi, all!

The September pin is done and I love it! The colors really pop and I am super happy with the choice of chosing black enamel! It sometimes is a hit or miss for me the black enamel was such a good choice with this pin. I hope you're as excited as I am!

August Pins!

Hi, all!

I received the August pins last week and I am working as fast as I can to ship them all! I am shipping them with June pins as well.. so sorry for the delays! Covid is resulting in factories stopping production again in China so things are a bit chaotic. Luckily, the factory told me that pins shouldn't be delayed again and we should be resuming the early/mid month shipping schedule again. 

Thank you so much and I apologize for all the issues! All orders will go out th...

Kaiju Corgi projects!

Hey, gang!

I am going to try to be more active here! 

Here is concept art for a new Kaiju corgi plush I am trying to get prototyped now! I want it so it is easy to use the same design to turn into an updated version of the regular corgi plushes I have produced years ago. That way, this new Kaiju Corgi plush can be converted into a regular corgi push too in a later time! I also want to see if I can produce the tuna corgi plushes some day too. :) I can't wait to see it get star...
