How To Gift Enamel Pins: A Guide to Meaningful Gifting

Let's talk about giving enamel pins as gifts. When choosing an enamel pin to give as a gift, it's important to think about the person who will receive it... their story, what matters to them, what they might need to be reminded of.

Every pin tells a story, carries a message, creates a moment of connection that can brighten someone's day or offer comfort just when they need it most.

Here's our guide to choosing the perfect pin for different moments and people in your life.

For Someone Who Needs a Boost

If someone you know could use a little lift, a quote pin from our Text Enamel Pin Collection is perfect.

Pins like our ”It Doesn't Have to Be Perfect” Text Enamel Pin and our “No One is You and That is Your Power Text Enamel Pin include phrases that really stick with people. These pins can be added to a jacket or pinned to a bag, offering comforting support throughout the day.

For Times of Change

Our Butterfly and Moth Pins, like our Black Swallowtail Butterfly Enamel Pin and Cecropia Moth Enamel Pin, are symbols of strength, transformation, and growth.

They serve as a gentle reminder that change can be beautiful! No matter if someone is going through a personal transformation or navigating a period of growth, these pins offer quiet encouragement, letting them know they have the strength to embrace whatever comes next.

For Making Birthdays Special

Gifting a pin from our Birth Month Flower Pin Collection is a wonderful way to add a thoughtful touch to someone's birthday celebrations!

Each flower has its own story and meaning, offering a personal way to mark their special day while connecting them to nature’s beauty. They’re a lovely idea to help celebrate a birthday in a way that feels personal and connected to the seasons.

For Those Special Messages

Our Incoming Text Message series, including our “You are Powerful” Enamel Pin and “Thank You” Enamel Pin captures meaningful moments of connection and turns them into something permanent. These pins become lasting reminders of love, appreciation, and support!

They’re perfect gifts for someone who might be in need of a lasting reminder of just how much they mean to you.

For Life's Big and Small Moments

All of the pins in our Floral and Plant Enamel Pin Collection speak to different seasons of life, each pin carrying its own special meaning.

A few of our favorite examples include…

Pilea Peperomioides Plant Enamel Pin: A symbol of prosperity and good fortune. This pin is ideal for someone embarking on a fresh start, like moving into a new home, starting a new job, or launching a new chapter in life.

Morning Glory Floral Enamel Pin: Representing new beginnings and fresh starts, this pin is a thoughtful gift for someone stepping into a new phase of life, such as a graduation, new relationship, or personal growth journey.

Narcissus Floral Enamel Pin: This pin is all about self-discovery and renewal. It's perfect for anniversaries or any occasion that honours resilience and personal transformation.

Rose Floral Enamel Pin: The classic symbol of love and affection, the Rose is perfect for celebrating romance or deep friendship. It’s ideal for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, or just to show someone how much they mean to you.

For Hands That Like to Stay Busy

Our Interactive Pins, like our Color Wheel Interactive Spinner Enamel Pin, do more than look unique. Each one moves smoothly, giving fidgety fingers something satisfying to engage with.

They’re truly great gifts for those who think best when their hands are occupied and perfect for anyone who loves to stay busy.

For the Creative Types

Shopping for someone who lives for the creative process? Our Artist Enamel Pin Collection is made for those who love all things arts and crafts.

Pins like our Slim Color Palette Enamel Pin and Yellow Pencil Enamel Pin are great gifts to celebrate the joy of starting a new project and the satisfaction of laying out your tools to create something new.

For a Subtle Touch

Some people prefer their accessories to be a bit more understated, and that’s okay. It’s why we created our Mini Pin Collection.

You still get all the significance, just in a smaller, more understated form. These delicate pins carry the same thoughtfulness but with a quieter presence, perfect for anyone who loves to wear something meaningful but in a way that’s a little more subtle.

Add Some Extra Meaning

To make your gift even more personal, try pairing multiple pins together to create a message!

For example, you could let a Butterfly Enamel Pin accompany a message of strength and transformation from our Text Enamel Pin Collection, to give to a friend who might need the gift of resilience during a big life change.

Include a heartfelt note to explain why you chose each pin, sharing what the pin means to you or why it reminded you of them.

And, don’t forget to include a Deluxe Locking Pin Back or Magnetic Pin Back, to help them keep their enamel pin safe and secure!

The best gifts show someone you really see them. A thoughtfully chosen pin becomes part of their daily life, reminding them they're understood.
