🎉 What We Made Together

Collaboration makes everything more fun.

Hey friends!

Liz here — owner of The Snarky Company, an AAPI, queer, and woman-owned business that’s been crafting enamel pins since 2018. This new project marks our 14th crowdfunding adventure, and it’s something totally new: enamel magnetic grips for e-readers and phones!

As a romance and fantasy reader with dyspraxia and a flair for clumsiness, I’ve had my fair share of “phone-to-the-face” incidents in bed — and my Kindle has taken a few heroic dives mid–plot twist. After a year of testing samples, adhesives, and designs (and dropping a lot of prototypes in the process), I’ve finally created enamel magnetic grips that look beautiful and actually make reading (and scrolling) easier.

I reside in Raleigh, NC with my partner and our two dogs, Mochi and Yuzu. When I’m not working, you can usually find me lifting weights in the gym, reading romance and fantasy books, playing video games, hanging out with my pups, or on a quest to find the best Japanese food — especially matcha and hojicha lattes.

Even if you’ve backed a Snarky Co. enamel pin campaign before, please take a moment to read the information below about the grips. Their functionality and handling differ from enamel pins, so it’s important to review these details before pledging.

Grip Sizes



How Grips are Sold



Edit



Standard Grip Details:
  • The top enamel piece measures 1.8 inches in diameter, features a circular shape, and is crafted from hard enamel.
  • It’s securely attached to a magnetic base made of plastic and silicone.
  • Each grip includes an adhesive metal ring that can be applied to an e-reader case or phone case for easy attachment.
  • While the grips are compatible with MagSafe cases, please note that magnetic strength can vary from case to case. For the most secure hold, we recommend using the included adhesive ring.

 









Deluxe Grip Details:
  • The top enamel piece measures 2.25+ inches, features a die cut shape, and is crafted from hard enamel.
  • It’s securely attached to a magnetic base made of plastic and silicone.
  • Each grip includes an adhesive metal ring that can be applied to an e-reader case or phone case for easy attachment.
  • While the grips are compatible with MagSafe cases, please note that magnetic strength can vary from case to case. For the most secure hold, we recommend using the included adhesive ring.

Why is it called Yuzu’s Best Friend?
Because my 9lb mini schnauzer, Yuzu, is obsessed with toads. We live near a pond, and every summer when the toads come out to hop around, Yuzu’s loves to chase them. (she doesn't eat them or grab them or anything) We’ve started calling them her “friends” — though it’s definitely a one-sided friendship.


This project is one of six in the Pin Kids Collective Harvest Moon Collab! 

Each unique campaign in this collective is run by talented creators who have made enamel pins and other accessories for years.

Back Celestial Cottagecore by Sunset Road Co. and Firmly Grasp It by Snarky Co. and receive a free sticker from each campaign.

Back all 6 Pin Kids Collective projects to receive a free enamel pin from each campaign. That means you'll receive 6 free enamel pins and 6 free stickers if you successfully pledge, pay, and complete your surveys for all 6 campaigns.
