“ Amazonian Tapir” Pin // Kittynaut

[facethroughthemirror]

The newest additions to my Dr. Grey itabag, courtesy of @kittynaut! It’s taken me a hot minute to write this post, due to life stuff, but I’ve finally finished it! I really don’t know if it adequately captures how excited and happy I am about these pins, though.

I found Kittynaut’s medical-themed pins at Katsucon way back in February, but didn’t have the funds for them then. Enamel pins are pretty and so worth the money, but they are can also be mad expensive sometimes, and for someone between jobs with little con swag money, buying enamel pins just isn’t ideal. But, after I got a job, I finally ordered the blood bag for my birthday because I’d decided I’d stared at it long enough without buying it! And I was so happy with it that I ordered the syringe and the band-aid a little over a week later.

Multiple people have told me that these pins are such a perfect fit for an itabag for Emily, but even if they weren’t, I’d keep them in there anyway. They’re so adorable! My friend in nursing school actually seemed to get a little bit jealous when I told her I got the last rose gold blood bag, she wanted it for her clinical bag after I showed it to her. All three of the pins are just beautiful, I love them so much. They’re bigger than I expected them to be, and very solid, but they feel sturdy. I’m not exactly an expert, but I consider these to be very well-made pins.

I can’t get over the little blood drop part of the blood bag, it’s just the cutest little thing. It looks so happy to be here. Like, the whole pin looks happy, but the little blood drop looks so smiley and so content to be here. It’s just so happy. I love it so much. I’m also very glad I went with the rose gold finish for that pin because it looks so soft and sort of pastel. Which fits the tone of the bag much better, honestly. And I was actually a little afraid of breaking the chain on the blood bag when I was putting the pin into my bag, since I needed to position it a little weird in order to get it to look the way I wanted, but it’s holding just fine!

The band-aid matches way more perfectly with the character I’m making this itabag for, since it’s purple and matches her color scheme a lot better than the pink one does. It looks so cute next to the blood bag pin! They’re friends now. I feel like I remember seeing it labeled as “one sticky boi” or something at Katsucon and honestly I’m going to continue to refer to it as such. I love it. There’s a slight curve to it that makes it more interesting to look at than a flat band-aid design, and I actually really like that? A lot of “kawaii hospital,” menhera, medikawa, etc designs feature flat or crossed band-aids, and even the slight curve just makes it look a little better, I think.

The syringe is a b-grade pin “with defects,” clearly labeled as a b-grade pin on the etsy listing, with a general explanation as to why the pins in the listing were being labeled as such. This statement is not a complaint in the slightest, I spent the money knowing there could be a visible defect, since I really don’t mind defects at all! Honestly, I think they give the pin character, it sort of makes it feel like I’ve got a unique variant of the pin. (I don’t know if whatever defect this pin allegedly has is unique to it, but that’s still fine.) I can’t really even see a defect, I’ve looked, and I can’t figure out what it could possibly be. I also like how like... mischievous the syringe looks. Like it’s gonna start some trouble. I like the personality in that expression on the syringe especially. The smiles and happy faces on the other two are sweet and cute and nice, but I like how that pin looks like it’s gonna get into some Shenanigans™.

And I love the star pinbacks! They’re like noticeably easier to hold onto? And I love rubber backs for enamel pins, especially heavy ones like these, because they kind of keep the pin more stationary, I think? I have two ice cream cone enamel pins of similar weights to these pins in another bag, and they have metal backs and move around way too much. I’m convinced the rubber backs keep them more still. And I lose enough earbud tips, and so of course, I’m paranoid about losing such nice pin backs, and also losing the pin in the process if something happens to the back, but! The seller included a set of spare metal backs with each pin! While backs on itabag dwelling pins probably won’t be lost forever if something knocks them off, the spares are just super nice anyway. They’re currently living in the package the blood bag came in inside a pocket of my itabag. Just in case.

And speaking of the packaging! Look how cute it is! Ugh I love it.

As for shipping, I’ve spent I think maybe a little over $3 in shipping each time I’ve ordered from Kittynaut? Maybe? The shipping tacked on to the item in my etsy cart says $2.70, but it’s a significantly lighter and cheaper item. I believe that the shipping fees I paid were for USPS priority mail? Which is pretty quick, but I believe it’s still standard technically-standard shipping. I’m more impressed with the speed at which both orders were shipped out, each order only took two days to get here. It’s not like they were coming from across the country, just like two-ish states over, but still, I’ve ordered things that are shipping from places that I could have in theory driven out to in less than a day, and they've taken a week to get to me.

The blood bag pin was ordered on a Friday, shipped the next day, and arrived that Monday! The syringe and band-aid were listed as shipped the same day as I ordered them, which was Tuesday. I ordered them in the morning, I was notified that they’d shipped by that afternoon, and they arrived on Thursday!

Kittynaut has a wide array of other cute pins, accessories, trinkets, lanyards, soaps (that look like snacks and they look delicious and I would eat them if they were not soap), and other stuff available on their etsy, and you can find pictures of their merchandise on their instagram! I highly recommend them, the seller seems very friendly, and their products are definitely worth it. I don’t know if the medical pins are going to be restocked, but they’re going pretty quick. I recommend their egg kitties designs too.
