Pin Trading Database - Newbie With A HUGE Question

Hello! I'm new and just joined the site today. I found this place while looking for somewhere online that I might be able to get a custom lapel pin made.

I already know that unofficial pins are not exactly allowed to be traded, but I'm not looking to trade the pin in question... Ever.

I created a Figment themed design, which I am also using as my icon here, that I would like to make into my own custom pin to wear to WDW next year when I get to go again as my college graduation gift.

Does anyone here know a place where I can order just a single custom enamel pin????

Every place that I have found so far is demanding that I fork over 100$ for 10 pins or more and I only want one for myself. Would prefer to pay no more than 10$-15$ for my Figment Graduation pin. Undecided

Hmmm, yeah, unfortunately I don't think a single-enamel-pin service exists. I've looked into doing enamel pins of my original (non-Disney) art in the past, and like you, all I've found are bulk offerings, individual pin prices getting cheaper the higher the number of pins ordered. I think you might very well be out of luck as far as enamel goes. Perhaps you could hit the craft store and make a non-enamel pin for yourself that would still look nice. Modge Podge dimensional magic is pretty cool stuff for giving a nice, clear sort of 3D surface to 2D artwork.
If anyone does know of such a service I'd love to hear about it, though! Good luck with your pin and congrats on your upcoming graduation. Shy

Thank you!

I actually do have a different version of this pin that I plan to make myself. But I am still hoping to be able to find a way to do it's variant in enamel somehow.
