Jane's Lucky Chance

Office Gossip - Pair of 25mm badges

A few new ranges of 25mm badges are being listed this week.
The first range has been created from pages from a vintage book called the Monster Book For Girls and are the perfect way to add a bit of that retro pulp fiction vibe to your daily outfits.

The next range, She Blinded Me With Science, will revolve around everything to do with technology, computers and more whiz-bangs than you can poke a compass at. These designs (with even more to come!) have been taken from a children's encyclopedia from the 70's.

PS. What did everyone do for Valentine's Day?

Sadly, I had to work at my 'day job' and after arriving home, promptly fell asleep at 4pm. I was lucky enough to see 'the boy' for a few hours - which was spent watching a small portion of Mad Men and general chit-chat.

All In A Twitter

Yes, Pannikin has finally succumbed and joined Twitter. Follow me to stay in the loop, up to date and in the know about all the goings on of the label. Not to mention the possibility of sweet deals and discounts.

Click here to read my tweets.


Also, would anyone be interested in subscribing to a Pannikin mailing list, with weekly emails filling you in on what new products are in store, sneak-peeks, discounts, freebies and more?

If yes, then please leave a comment below - there is no need to supply your email as I am only seeing if this is something people would like to be a part of before going about setting it up.

Anyway, thanks very much for reading; I am off to create more badges as my parts arrived in the mail yesterday and I am absolutely itching to create more! (In fact, I was so excited I stayed up until 1am this morning cutting and punching out new designs, so check back in my Etsy shop soon for new pieces!)

Have a lovely weekend and Happy Valentine's Day!

25mm Badge Sets



I am little obsessed with making these badges. Seriously, badge makers are so much fun I think it should be something every DIY crafter needs. I just ran out of badge parts though, so it's going to be a short while until I can create more. But that's okay because I'm sure like most of you I have 100+ unfinished projects.

I Choo-Choo-Choose You!

More exciting news! I have been a busy bee lately creating lots of Vintage Valentine Fridge Magnets and listing them on Etsy. At only $3.50 USD a pop they make a great gift for someone you love, so show 'em you care with something downright cheesy (yet utterly adorable!).

Zoology brooches

Hip-hip-hooray!

The Zoology plastic animal brooches are back with more designs coming soon. Currently there are five different animals to choose from; wolf, bear, owl, deer and sloth. I was especially excited about the sloth one - whoever buys him will have me immediately impressed.

There are other designs coming shortly, but if there is a specific animal you would like to have made as a custom order, please send me a message via Etsy's conversation application. Or, alternatively, feel free to suggest any other animals not yet made.
