📸 Mini Update – Pin Production Sneak Peek + New Photos Incoming!
12 months ago – Tue, Jun 17, 2025 at 07:38:40 AM

Hey Trashlings! 🦝🗑️

We just received a new batch of photos from our manufacturer, and we couldn’t wait to share them with you all! 💌✨

Although we’ve already shown you a bunch of pins that were well underway in our last update regarding Pins (some were nearly finished, some just missing screen prints or plating), now it’s still super exciting to *finally* see more of them progressing — slowly but surely! 🐾

This new batch includes close-ups of several characters, and we’re happy to report that the quality looks on point so far. 🥹  While don't have all the photos (maybe some of the designs are waiting to reach the very final stage?), it's a relief to see that things are still moving forward — even if at a snail’s pace 🐌

 But for now… can we just appreciate how adorable they look already?! 🥹💕 





Our manu told us that actually more pictures are coming soon, so we’ll be keeping a close eye and sharing those as soon as we get them!


Thank you again for your incredible patience — we know this process has been waaaaaay slower than expected, but every small step brings us closer to getting these pins into your hands, and we’re so grateful to be on this journey with you 🖤  We truly can’t wait to send these out to their forever homes – you all deserve the cutest pins ever! 🏠✨ 

Stay tuned for more updates soon!


With love,

Other Plushies arrived: now Ready to Ship! ✨📦

Hey Backers & Frens!
We’ve got a trashload of great news today — more Bin Buddies plushies have finally arrived!! 🎉🦝💖

After their loooong journey across the ocean, we can finally welcome home the rest of the plush gang: Peanut, Cupcake, Spike, and Nugget!! 🐶🦴 (Kiki and Bin had been waiting for them here! )


Pin Banners arrived some time ago too!! 🧷  As we previously said, they look  g o r g e o u s  in person, we personally love them so much! 🥹✨

📦 That means… we’ve officially started packing all the pledges that include them (and the other items we have in hand) — and they’ll start shipping out very soon! For those of you who got them: get ready to welcome them home! 🥹🖤  

📸 Just look at all those parcels ready to roll!! 😎🖤

 Here’s a little behind-the-scenes sneak peek from our studio — we’ve already packed lots of rewards and more are being packed every day!
 Your trash babies are getting closer and closer to your doorstep 🏡📦✨



📌 Enamel Pins
 We just heard from our manufacturer and the pins are finally making good progress — they’ve promised to send us new photos tomorrow, so we’re keeping everything crossed they’ll follow through this time! 😭🤞
We’ll share those updates as soon as we receive them!

👕 Peanut Apparel
 Still no news here — the joggers and hoodies are still in transit. As you already know, sea freight is a slow (and unpredictable) beast, but we’ll keep watching it closely and let you know as soon as it reaches us!
As always, we’ll post a new update as soon as we have news!


 Thanks again for being the best trash fam ever 🖤 Stay tuned and stay cozy~ 💌🧺🗑️


🎉 Tote Bags production is Complete – They are almost on their way to us! 🦝👜
about 1 year ago – Fri, Jun 06, 2025 at 10:23:03 AM

Hey Trashlings!

We’ve got exciting news straight from the production floor: Bin Tote Bags are officially DONE! 💥✨

The manufacturer just sent us a batch of behind-the-scenes photos from the final steps of the assembly, and we’re so happy with how they turned out!


You can see the adorable lining being sewn in (featuring the pattern we made with all our favorite trash: pizza slices, banana peels, fish bones and the others!), the outer shell fully embroidered, and especially the final tags + labels (we worked so hard on, too) and accessories being attached — including the little bin-shaped pouch hanging outside each bag! 🗑️🧵💚


🧺 Every tote has been sewn, lined, labeled, and packed — ready to ship!
The shipment should leave the factory very soon, and once it gets to us (after its long journey by sea), a, we’ll do our usual quality checks before starting fulfillment of the rewards that include them. We can’t wait to get these in your hands!

💬 Other Project Updates
👕 Peanut’s Apparel
Peanut joggers and hoodies are still on their way! They’re traveling by sea freight as well, which is unfortunately always extremely slow and can come with some risk. We’re keeping fingers crossed they arrive soon and safely. Thank you so much for your patience in the meantime!

📌 Enamel Pins
The pins are currently in the final screen printing phase. Our manufacturer has been again a lot slow to reply lately, which makes it still hard to get precise timelines for us 🥲 — but rest assured we’re checking in regularly and doing everything we can to keep things moving! 🫡

We'll share more updates as soon as new items are ready/in transit or whenever we get any general news! Thank you again for your continued support and for believing in our 'trashy' little dream 🥹🦝🖤

Almost there: more progress on the Pins — Loads of new Photos
about 1 year ago – Fri, May 02, 2025 at 03:24:07 AM

Hey everyone!

We’re back with another update from the enamel pin front — and yes, it’s more good news!

Our manufacturer has just sent over another big batch of production progress photos, and we’re so excited to share them with you all. Seeing so many Bin Buddies (and TrashBox) together (and in different stages of completion!) really fills our hearts. They're turning out so beautifully! Just the way we wanted, the quality is honestly amazing 🥹


From what we can see, more designs have moved forward significantly — some are already fully filled and polished, while others are still mid-process but looking great so far. It’s clear the factory is moving steadily, and it’s such a relief to see that progress is very much real and ongoing!



Actually — the majority of the pins are now just waiting for their final production stage: screen printing! Once that step is complete, they’ll go under some final touches like backing attachments and be ready to begin the quality check, and packing process.

You’ll notice a mix of colors, characters, and variations in these new photos — which is actually a great sign that they're juggling multiple designs at once and working through them in waves.

As always, we’ll keep monitoring everything closely and sharing updates as we get them!


Thanks again to each of you for sticking with us on this wild ride. Your patience means the world to us, and every little bit of progress brings us closer to getting these pins into your hands.


Stay tuned — and enjoy the new peek behind the scenes!


Have a lovely weekend ahead,
the Quirkory Team~

Pin Production Update! ✨
about 1 year ago – Mon, Apr 28, 2025 at 11:00:42 AM

Hey everyone!

We finally have some fresh news from the enamel pin side — and it's good news!
Our manufacturer just sent over the first batch of production photos, and we couldn't be more excited to share them with you!

 

As you can see, pin production is actively underway!

Some designs are actually further along than others — but overall, we’re really happy (and honestly a bit emotional) to finally see our Bin Buddies slowly coming to life in shiny enamel form. Ahhh!


Of course, there's still more work to be done for some: enamel filling, baking, polishing, attaching the backings, quality checks, and so on — but now that we have this concrete confirmation of progress, we’re feeling really optimistic that things will keep moving forward without too many additional hiccups.

We’ll continue to monitor production closely and keep checking in with the manufacturer regularly. As soon as they wrap up this phase and start their QC (quality control), we’ll let you know!



Our Hopeful Timeline

It’s still too early to share an exact shipping date to us for the pins yet — but if production keeps up at a good pace from here, we’re really hoping they’ll be finished within the next couple of months, since they're a lot of designs. (Please cross your fingers with us!! 🤞)



We’ll make sure to keep you in the loop with any significant updates as they happen.



Thank you again to everyone who had endless patience, kindness, and support through this super challenging period and project (which involved so many different items).

You’re seriously the best —and seeing progress like this reminds us every day that it’s all going to be worth it in the end.



Sending you all the biggest hugs and most grateful vibes,
the Quirkory Team~
