Thought I'd share some work in progress of my new pin design 'Lynx Mom' that I'm getting made in time for Mother's Day! A percentage of the proceeds made from the preorders will be donated to an organization dedicated to helping single mothers and their families too!
I recently have gone with a new manufacturer for my pins since the other one I was using was getting to expensive for me; this one is much better and has no problem sending WIP pics like these too for me to approve!
So the pics above and below show the mold for the pins. This acts as a cookie cutter, essentially, for the pins so they can easily be mass produced. The next pics I'll be getting will be a few of the pins filled with the enamel/colours so I'm VERY excited to see how that ends up looking!

I also received a pic of the backing card! The holes in it are from the pins backings, showing where the pin will sit! The backing cards are pretty plain but I'm still very excited to see them all packed together! I use to do the pin backing cards and pins separately so it'd always be me having to punch each pin to the card which got tiring VERY quickly, with the amount of preorders I get! It'll be nice having someone else do it for me now, haha!

That's it for now!
For those that haven't preordered yet, you can do so here: www.theartofnicole.com/shop
I'm aiming to have these out and delivered by mothers day <3
