Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your Custom Enamel Pins 🖌️

Creating enamel pins with Pinlordshop.com is easier than ever. Follow these steps to bring your vision to life:

Step 1: Prepare Your Artwork 🎨

We accept .PDF, .JPEG, .PNG, and .AI file formats—just make sure the resolution is high! If you're not experienced with digital art, no worries! You can scan or take a photo of your hand-drawn art, and we’ll guide you through refining it.

Pro Tips:

• Keep It Simple: Pins are small (1-2 inches), so use bold lines and strong colors to make your design pop.
• Avoid Shading & Fades: Enamel pins are like vector art, so avoid gradients and shading—stick to solid colors for clean, eye-catching results.

---

Step 2: Choose Between Hard or Soft Enamel Pins 🔍

What’s the difference between hard and soft enamel? Let’s break it down:

Hard Enamel Pins 💎

• Smooth Finish: Created by heating and polishing, hard enamel pins have a flat, smooth surface.
• Durable and High-Quality: These pins feel slightly heavier and have a high-end, polished look.

Best for: Sleek, smooth designs that communicate elegance and durability.

Soft Enamel Pins 🎨

• Textured Finish: The raised lines and recessed enamel paint give soft enamel pins a textured surface.
• More Detail: Soft enamel allows for more intricate details, making it perfect for complex designs.

Best for: Detailed designs that benefit from a more tactile, raised surface.

---

Step 3: Decide on Your Material Options 🛠️

Your enamel pins are made from metal, commonly iron or nickel, cast from a mold based on your design. You can customize the metal with a variety of finishes:

• Gold, Silver, Copper, or Rose Gold: Classic metallic finishes that add elegance to your pins.
• Dyed Metal: Want your raised lines to stand out? We offer black and white dyed metal for a bold, contrasting look.

Step 4: Choose Your Pin Size 📏

Pin size is usually determined by the longest or widest part of your design, and most pins range from 1 to 2.5 inches. Smaller pins (0.75-1.25 inches) are easier to attach but may limit detail, while larger pins (1.25 inches or more) allow for more intricate designs.

---

Step 5: Select Your Fixing 🔧

Choosing the right pin-back or fixing is crucial to ensuring your pin stays securely in place.

• Standard Pin-backs: For most designs, we recommend using two pin-backs to prevent rotation and ensure the pin stays put.
• Other Fixings: Looking for something different? We offer options like keychains, magnets, chains, jewelry hooks, and more. Just let us know what you're envisioning!

---

Step 6: Decide How Many Pins to Order 🛒

For your first order, factories typically require a minimum of 100 units. We recommend starting with the minimum and reordering more once you see how well your pins are received by your audience.

Pro Tip: It’s always better to start small and scale up—avoid getting stuck with excess stock by testing the market first.

---

Step 7: Understand Pricing 💵

Pricing for custom enamel pins starts from $229 to $349 USD for 100 units, including shipping worldwide. Pricing depends on the size, number of paint colors, and any additional features you choose (like glitter or epoxy).

We make payment easy and flexible, with 50% upfront and 50% upon final approval. You can pay via:

• PayPal
• Bank Transfer (AUD or USD)
• Credit Card
• Afterpay
• Google, Shopify, or Apple Pay
