I make pride pins to fund my transition.

- Oh good, today's the day I pay the direct debit gender membership fees for permission to pay the real gender expenses later 🥲
- I'm going to keep the fern pins discounted for a little longer I think. Still need to work down some of the stock to make space for exciting new things!
- My second pin design was actually this trans fern, although the complexity of full 3D design and modelling meant I only released it after a few later pins! I wanted to create something truly beautiful, that could be worn as both a pin and a necklace. canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4312...
- It's so cool seeing this logo I designed being used everywhere today! Happy LGBT+ History Month everyone! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
- Immensely proud to share that I am the designer of the official badge for LGBT+ History Month 2026. Last night, @lgbthm.bsky.social revealed that the 2026 theme for the month will be 'Science and Innovation', so get ready to learn about some amazing queer scientists next year!
- The posts over on linkedin especially just keep coming 🥰
- Most of these designs haven't sold any pins but I'm kinda surprised that demiboy is the only one not to have been favourited by anyone on Etsy. Wouldn't have been my guess!
- New pins are up on my etsy! They're a little more straightforward than my usual designs but I wanted to focus on minority flags that are harder to find as high quality pins. As always, all sales help support my transition costs so any boost is massively appreciated 🏳️⚧️ canopyrobin.etsy.com
- Making this tiny change to the shape of the pin was really expensive but I think it was so worth it. They're massively more accessible this way and much more stable to use while wearing 😊
- I poked some very squidgy fungi today. Highly recommend.
- My friend just got my GameChanger pride design as a tattoo 😯 Absolutely surreal
- It feels like such an honour to have created something that somebody wants to use in that way and keep with them forever
