About Me
Hello there! Welcome to my enamel pin shop! My name is Grecia but I go by Gracie online. I am 24 years old, first generation Mexican American and have lived in Southern California my whole life! I have a kitty named Manuela, who is my baby girl 💕 I am a full time caretaker and a part-time pizza delivery driver. I've been a anime collector for about 2-3 years but before I started, I collected and traded Disney pins, which got me really into pin collecting. I started off collecting a lot Fox & the Hound, Ratatouille, and Turning Red! But I am much more into anime than Disney so when I found out about custom anime pins, I was pretty stoked! My current collections are: My Dress Up Darling, Attack on Titan, Kobeni from Chainsaw Man, Princess Mononoke, and Godzilla!Â
Why did I start Pincoholics? I just have a genuine love and passion for pins! There are some designs and ideas that I would love to make and share with everyone. To test my creativity, imagination and even reach other niche communities. I also wanted to gain some new experience when it comes to pin making. A journey that I've been wanting to go on for a while and I'm excited about it.
The name "Pincoholics" came from a good friend of mine! As I was determining a name for my enamel pin business, which was kinda difficult. I wanted a name that would be distinguishable and not so much of a mouthful. I had logged onto my friend groups discord server and found my name changed to "pincoholic"... I thought is was pretty on point and accurate because my friends are aware of my pin addiction. The name stuck and that's where the name come from. But I think that I am definitely not the only pincoholic in the in our community. I guess my other objective is to fuel their addictions too.Â
Anyways, that is it for now! If you have read my "About Me" page, I want to thank you and appreciate the time you've taken to get to know a bit about me.Â
Sincerely, you pincoholic friend,
Gracie 💕
Short term goal: Have a sellout.
