these pins are on preorder in my shop, here, and I am s u p e r excited to see them in person! Star Faun will be black enamel with silver nickel plating, and the “Tertia Oculus” deer will be white/pink with rose gold (copper) plating, and bluegreen/gold plating. The white color deer is a tribute to a white deer that has lived in my neighborhood for several years but recently died of natural causes. She was very special, so that colorway will be limited edition, limited to 100. Preorder prices are $2 less than full price! These will take between 4 and 6 weeks to make. Thanks for having a look! ✨
Crystal Whale Pins! I sold out of these guys FAST on my instagram, but tomorrow I’ll be listing about 10 very slightly defected pins for a discounted price! If you missed out on the non-defected pins, I’ll be ordering more at the beginning of April!
HEY tumblr friends (old and new-hello!) I have a new pin that is out on my etsy! I’ve also finally updated the shipping so I can ship worldwide (just know that I don’t have any control over shipping prices, and shipping outside of the US can be a bit pricey ;x )
Let me know what you think and stuff! (link to etsy)
Look at how crafty Anjali got with her badge reel!
Folks always ask us if we can get some of these up in our shop. It is such a great idea and perhaps one day we will, but for now, you can always get creative like Anjali and make your own using our lapel pins!
[Gold plated, hard enamel, 50mm/2” tall, double clutch]
Why, of course it works! For the low, low price of $19.99 and just the smallest, tiniest bit of your soul, I’d be happy to sell!*
Part 1/3 of the Hong Kong Apothecary series (coming soon!). A bottle of the stuff that cures what ails ya, and comes free with a slithery little friend that’s highly adept at whispering into all the right ears.
At long last, this is ready for purchase!
(*it’s not actually 20 dollars, that’s just fun flavour text)

I spent a long time trying to figure out how to express what I was feeling during the recent spike in Asian hate crimes. It’s been exhausting and frustrating being reminded of the conditional acceptance of Asian people in western society. Model monitory until something like covid comes along. The more I saw the events of the past year unfold, the more I realize that we are loved for our culture but it doesn’t necessarily apply to our people.
I started to reflect on my own personal experiences with racism, fetishization and growing up with internalized racism.
“All guys should just date a nice Asian girl” “Omg you’re so Asian” “Go back where you came from” “Can you dress up as an asian school girl, I think that’d be really hot” “Having asian media representation isn’t important. I also never saw anyone who looked like me on tv when I was growing up, so it doesn’t matter” - a white cis gender male “I’d offer some to you but it’s not dog meat so you wouldn’t like it” “I only watch Asian porn” “Is your vagina slanted too?” “I love Asian women, they’re so exotic but also obedient” “Can you only speak mandarin to me during sex”
And those are just the verbal micro aggressions I’ve been told. I’m thankful I’ve never been physically assaulted.
From people getting spit on, robbed, stabbed, slashed, harassed, targeting the elderly, and then the shooting of 6 Asian women in Atlanta. I got tired of not being able to do anything. What could I really do for these victims but keep them in my thoughts and spread awareness. After the Atlanta shooting there were multiple gofundmes for the families of the victims and I didn’t feel like I was in a place where I could donate to all of them, enough to make an impact at least. So I spent a long time upset at myself that there was not a whole lot I could do. But then I had the idea that maybe I could create a charity product to raise money. So that’s where I am today. I have designed a pin where 100% of the profit will be set aside to support POC businesses, communities, and help victims of hate crimes. Link to the pin here
This one means a lot to me. Whenever I see White Rabbit candy, I’m instantly reminded of my childhood as it was one of my favourites. I think it’d be hard to find a more iconic Chinese candy. If White Rabbit candy is the good vibes of childhood candy, Haw Flakes are the exact opposite energy did anyone else have those as a kid?

We got pins! Thank you, everyone who supported the Kickstarter! I have plenty left for $12 each + shipping, if anyone is interested! Still waiting on a few survey responses, but these babies will be shipped out later this week!~
The Kickstarter is going way better than I anticipated and we’ve already almost reached the goal, so I churned out a couple rough designs and added a stretch goal to unlock two more pins!
I’ll add the link in a reblog since Tumblr is being a butt with links >3>
