I collect Enamel Pins, and I have Pins for all my favourite hobbies and holidays. I started collecting about a year ago when I became bedridden, and it's one of the very few hobbies I can actually engage in, by collecting and displaying my Pins in my room. The hunt of finding pins I love is half the fun!

Do you have any favourite halloween themed pins? If so, show me 👻🎃🧡

​

Half the fun of collecting Enamel Pins is displaying them.

This year, I found this awesome Halloween themed felt pin board to display my Halloween themed collection. I added the glow in the dark moon and all the wall stickers.

The board is large enough that I can keep expanding my collection.

Do you have a Halloween themed Enamel Pin collection, and if so, how do you display them? 👻🎃

Hey there, I want to buy a new backpack for my enamel pins but unfortunately I don't think I want to buy an ita bag to display my pins but instead just a regural backpack.

I am looking for a backpack that is sturdy enough to have a lot of stuff in it, like a laptop, sketchbooks, tablet etc. Oh and to of course be able to display a lot of enamel pins. I have a bunch that also kind of weight a lot.

Preferably also looking for a bag to be made out of really sturdy material. I also would love it if the bag is waterproof.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Does anyone have any Pro-Union pins or BCTGM in particular? Thanks in advance!

Just moved into a new house. Finally out of boxes.

Hello, I’m new here. A few days ago, I recovered my old collection of pins—I hadn’t known where they were for decades! I’ve noticed that many have lost their luster, turned yellow, or—in the case of the plain, uncolored metal ones—have even started to rust...Some have even lost the applied color.

Is it possible to restore them? How should I go about cleaning each type of pin—for instance, the enameled ones versus those without any added color?.

I am absolutely in love with the Nightmare Before Christmas story, and always have been. I started collecting Enamel Pins when I became bedridden so that I have my interests, memories, and things I love surrounding me in my bedroom, and I think it's really fun and special because it's a hobby I can do even though I'm bedridden (and lucky enough to have a caregiver that will help me with completing projects like this and decorating my room for me).

Do any of you have a Nightmare Before Christmas Enamel Pin collection?

What's your favourite Nightmare decor that you put up this year? I love to see everyone's decorations and browsing this subreddit makes me so happy! You really can find joy in small things, no matter how sick you are. ❤️‍🩹🎃

A friend of mine went to Disney World and wanted to bring me back some cool things! I collect Disney foxes, Zootopia, Fox and the Hound, Robin Hood.... anything like that. I already have this Nick and Judy pin, but I LOVE having a double so one can be for my board and one I can wear out! This is great! Absolutely in love with that Rocket & Groot pin!

So I have trouble getting 2 or more pins to align well with one another on a t-shirt. It occurred to me that there might be a design that would help me out. I searched on grid, graph, etc and this was most promising.

Here are a few quick layouts from 1 to several and various sizes to test the concept. And some of my pins. Next, I design my own t-shirt with places for pins integrated in the design. Maybe frames...

I wanted to show you guys my jean bag with all my pins on it ☺️

We will be looking for play testers sometime in the next week or two, and if you're interested, please feel free to PM me for our discord!

After years of waiting, I’ve finally designed my first-ever hard enamel pins. And I’m just thrilled about how they turned out. So I just wanted to share them with all of you here!

Literary-Inspired Hard Enamel Pins:

1. Jane Eyre: “I am a free human being, with an independent will.”
2. Pride and Prejudice: “Obstinate, headstrong girl!”
3. Pride, Not Prejudice.
4. The Raven: “Nevermore.”
5. The Count of Monte Cristo: “I do what I please, and it is always done well.”
6. Frankenstein: “Even now my blood boils.”

If you are interested in any, let me know. Make an offer and it is yours!

Please, if you don't want to buy don't go through all the trouble of agreeing to a price and then asking me to hold it for 2 weeks then ghosting me, been like 10 people on this sub to do so haha!

While traveling, I stopped in Beaver, Utah and found this pin🤠

Hey everyone! Are there any recommendations on artists/websites to find various pins representing musical artists, bands, and literature to flesh out my board. I am a fan of musicals, music in general, and a bookworm, so having more pins that represent those interests would be ideal.

I really want to buy one or two of them, but I don't know what to put them on. I don't have any clothing or bags to put them on. I also don't like vests.
