BIG UPDATE - New Goals, Pledge Tiers, and Add-On Items!
about 1 year ago – Mon, Mar 24, 2025 at 11:02:03 AM

Hi everyone,

This campaign has almost reached $3,000, which means that we've almost unlocked ALL the initial funding goals! I want to try to keep momentum going, so I've made some major additions to the campaign based on backer feedback.

New Pin Designs to Unlock

I've added. There was a LOT of interest in more mini pins and more pride flag colors. Any mini pins that aren't funded during the initial campaign will be turned into post-campaign stretch goals, meaning they'll still be made if 10 of more people pre-order them as add-on items.

Bonus Funding Goals
  • $3,500 - Second set of Queer Coded Flower Mini Pins unlock (includes Violet, Trillium, and Hyacinth)
  • $4,000 - Nonbinary, Lesbian, and Bisexual Rose Mini Pins unlock
  • $4,500 - Pronoun pins unlock (design will be blank with a wet erase marker for customization)
  • $5,000 - Asexual, Aromantic, MLM Rose Mini Pins unlock
  • $5,500 - Genderfluid, Polyamory, and Pansexual Rose Mini Pins unlock



Pledge Tier and Add-On Updates

I've made some additions to the available pledge tiers and add-on items to accommodate the new items and backer feedback.

Add-On Item Updates
  • Individual Queer Coded Flower pins are now available for add-on.
  • Rose Mini Pins in the Bright, Pastel, and Transgender colorways are now available for add-on!

New Pledge Tier Options
  • Rose Mini Pin Set - receive three rose mini pins from any of the colorways unlocked during the campaign.
  • ALL the things! - An all-in pledge tier for the most enthusiastic backers! Receive one of every* pin that unlocks during the campaign, one set of vinyl stickers, and all eligible freebies.

*All-in tier does not include the "Remember Our Roots" mini pin unless the backer qualifies for it through my collaboration with the Brick by Brick and Queer North campaigns.


Second colorway unlocked, survey for more stretch goals!

Hi everyone,

The Pastel colorway has been funded and we're half way to unlocking the Transgender colorway too! It's time to start thinking about additional stretch goals and I want your feedback.

Fill out this three question survey to help determine our next goals.


With love and creativity,
Max

Floral Pride Pins: Designs, Freebies, and Collaborations!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Mar 07, 2025 at 12:23:16 PM

I wanted to share some updates on the campaign that I'm launching later this month! This campaign will be a collection of pin designs celebrating queer perseverance and increase visibility for the LGBTQ+ community. I'm excited to be collaborating with TWO other creators who will also be running LGBTQ+ pride campaigns.

 Click here to be notified with the campaign launches!

Campaign Designs

The campaign will feature four 2" pin designs and tree 1" mini pins. The 2" pins will have three different colorways to unlock: bright, pastel, and transgender. The mini pins will come in a set and include three flowers with a significance to LGBTQ+ history: lavender, green carnation, and pansy.



Campaign Freebies

I will be offering three different freebie items as part of this campaign. All backers will receive a sticker sheet that matches the mini pin set. There will also be freebie pins available for early bird backers and backers who support my collaboration partners!

Collaboration Partners

Backers who support this campaign, Arledge Comics Brick by Brick campaign, and Geek Hive Labs Queer North: New Horizons campaign will receive THREE free mini pins (one from each of us).
