Hello! I've restocked this pin and 100% of the profits of it go to Medical Aid for Palestinians. This is the fourth restock and it's raised just under 10k so far! If you're interested, here it is www.deadly.ie/store/p/free... Tell a friend xoxo
A pin with four hearts, each with a different colour of the Palestine flag. On the back it reads 'Saoirse Don Phalaisin'

Made a pin inspired by a Bratz Doll and Kneecap. It passed the Jasper sniffspection.

Abandoned religious motivational shinpad.
A shinpad on grass that has the word 'cant'. Jesus appears in a later drawing, removing the T like a cross and it reads 'can'.

I don't know if this is the place for video, but I made this one to promote my new pin. #speirgorm

Bit late to the party, but I made a Brigid Spinner. It's a Brigids Cross pin that, well, spins. It's got two pin backs to keep it securely in place and I think it's gorgeous.

There's a story about the head falconer of Lazio getting fired, not because of all his Nazi salutes, but because he posted pictures on instagram of his erect penis after having enhancement surgery. He then locked himself into the stadium in protest. Anyway, the Euronews article ends on this dinger:

I'd joke about the rhythm in that crowd too, but a priest once took a tambourine off me outside Superquinn in the middle of a school charity singalong. ##latelatetoyshow

Let's hope Bluesky brings back the #LateLateToyShow joy that Irish Twitter used to be and embraces the essence of what it is to be Irish - slagging innocent talented children who have no means of responding.

Thank you kindly ❤️ I'm taking a break between packing pins and I'm watching the All Dogs Go To Heaven Christmas Special here - and let me tell you, it's the most 80s looking thing from 1998.

Thanks, David. Easily my favourite looking pin of mine. The fact that it has a dad joke built into it is just the icing on top

I couldn't stop saying it in my head for the past two weeks. Getting it made was very cathartic.

Yup. Mad stuff altogether. Also, that album, Onkas Big Moka, had one single vote in Q magazines best album of the millennium. I always suspected the lead singer.

I went down a Toploader rabbit hole a while back. The 'hear we go' was only on the remix version. It's the only difference between it & the original. Also, check out 'floating away in a bathtub'. Could be the worst album closer on record.

Me lil business is 3 years old! It's been mad craic. Its still part-time (and probably always will be), but it's a great way to stay creative now that I don't do portrait photography anymore.

I feel like I've told you that you have something that COULD be valuable IF I was to die. Please don't send any hitmen. I'm full of chocolate and can't run.

There were only 25 of that red retro reflector one made, and we've two between us! I only make it in baby blue now. It's great to see my old packaging, too! I'll have to spruce up the card designs again soon!

Just realised I've FOUR more on the way, but two are just updates on old designs ti make them better. Either way, I'll be in IKEA buying all the TROFASTS that I can get me hands on

Thanks, David! It's definitely my big hobby these days. It's not something that I could depend on full time, but it's great fun to design and then eventually physically hold them.

I started this Banksy-St Patrick doodle a month or so before Paddy's Day. Our first baby was born on March 18th, so it's understandable that sharing it wasn't high on my priority list. Anyway, i just found it there, so enjoy this seasonally inappropriate drawing.

Here are some of my other pins (I've like 50 in toal over at www.deadly.ie) If you get me talking about them, I won't stop. I've become a pin-bore. My poor wife tries to bring the conversation back around to our newborn, but I'm not having it. "This pin has two clutches on it", I continue.

I had a guy translate it for me, but he said it's quite literal and it wouldn't make sense to people back then (especially the brackets I wedged in)

Howdy folks. I'm Sean, The Pin King of Finglas. I make enamel pins with Irish themes and the occasional poster. Despite the deadly domain name (literally), I'm just a one-man operation, working from my spare room. If you've any questions, ask away!

Thanks Kufat! My personal favourite bit is the old Irish Ogham writing up the top reads 'Lisa needs braces (Dental Plan!)'
