I've been collecting pins here and there for a few years now! Usually for places I visit or events that offer them. They're small, neat, and cost friendly. Hah.
@DrainedPatience Yes, I've noticed that after browsing a bit online, these pins usually don't exceed $12/ea for most of the pins I have interest in. The ones I bought at Musique Plastique today were $8/ea, and are well-made. I'll be eyeing any state fairs/exhibitions/events that have them in the future.
Nice! they are a fun collectible. I have quite a few. I love wearing them on my jackets. They are like fancy reusable stickers. I will try and post a photo tomorrow.
