Two new campaigns launching in January!
about 1 year ago – Wed, Dec 18, 2024 at 09:59:08 AM

Hello, everyone! I wanted to let y'all know that I have two campaigns launching in January.

Launching January 1st on Kickstater: Transgender Healthcare Enamel Advocacy Pins

One of my most popular sticker designs is becoming a pin! I originally sat down to make this design with colored pencils in a sketchbook in the spring of 2022. I was frustrated with a recent push of laws to restricted gender affirming healthcare in the United States and wanted a simple sticker design to encourage advocacy and educating others. Over the past few years I have sold over 1,000 stickers and donated hundreds more to local nonprofits serving the transgender community.

Launching January 23rd on Backerkit: Bookshelves for Bibliophiles

Build your own library with this collection of bookshelves! The designs for this campaign are inspired by ten different literary genres and feature thematic shapes, references, and tropes. The ten genres are: fantasy, science fiction, horror, LGBTQ+, romance, westerns, children's, mystery, gardening, and cooking. Each genre gets a 3" bookcase pin, 1" mini bookshelf pin, and stickers. 

With love and creativity,
Max

Coming Soon: Monster Makers Enamel Pins - A Puppetry Inspired Makerspace
over 1 year ago – Sat, Sep 07, 2024 at 12:30:51 PM

Get ready for the Monster Makers collection!

I'm excited to announce my next enamel pin project - a Monster Makerspace! Makerspaces provide the tools and resources to work on creative projects, learn new skills, and bring the community together. You can get your stitch fix in the sewing studio, whittle away time in the woodshop, get wired about the electronics lab, and explore! This enamel pin collection features a crafty cast of characters inspired by puppetry arts.

This campaign will be a part of an artist collaboration event called Pintober! Participating artists will be launching their spooky season pin campaigns and giving backers a chance to stack up additional freebies by backing 3+ projects.

Here's a sneak peak at the Monster Maker pin designs and themes...

Shipping Updates
over 1 year ago – Thu, Aug 15, 2024 at 08:41:57 AM

Hi everyone,

I'm working on packaging up rewards and they'll be shipping really soon!

  • If you have not filled out your Backerkit survey, I will not be able to ship your rewards! It's not too late to fill it out, but late entries may have addition shipping delays since my schedule is about to get busy with in-person events.
  • If your reward included The Bytes Acrylic Pin, your order will be delayed by a week or two. There was a cosmetic issue with the pins I originally got significant enough that I needed to reorder them.
  • If your reward tier included custom art, I will be reaching out to you about it by the end of the month.

Rewards for all other backers will be going out starting this week!

With love and creativity,
Max
