Hey, badge ribbon-y friends! Three quick things:

1. Zeldathon is happening right now. I wanted to share these super cute gamertag badges pc/nametag printed for the event. 😋
2. Quick reminder that pc/nametag has con-themed badge ribbon packs on Amazon, which you can get super fast with Prime. This is a nice option if you don't have the time to design and order your own badge ribbons 💕
3. Use code DRAGON26 for 15% off custom badge ribbons with pc/nametag, now through the end of the year! This is a web-only discount and you can use it once. Let me know if you need help!

Thanks, everyone! I hope you're having a great day!

Hey, listen! (Lol, see what I did there?) I know some of you love video games. Coming up soon, there is an absolutely amazing Zelda-themed event that is 100% free to attend and live-streamed on Twitch. It runs from Sunday, July 19th until Sunday, July 26.

Every day, the Zeldathon team (pics) live-streams themselves playing the Zelda games, putting on fun performances, and doing silly fundraising challenges. They also have amazing video game prizes you can win. The best part is that it is ALL for charity!

It's a ton of fun (and pc/nametag sponsors the badges and lanyards every year), so we really wanted to help get the word out. 💕

It costs nothing to watch and all money raised goes toward St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Here's more info if this sounds like fun to you!

P.S. Comment your favorite Zelda game! Mine is Twilight Princess and I'll accept zero slander on it 😂 Also, BOTW is better than TOTK (sorry, I said it lol)

SpongeBob badge ribbons! 😁

I feel like watching SpongeBob while growing up played a huge part in shaping my weird sense of humor.

For better or for worse? Guess that's debatable LOL

Let me know which of these ribbons you think is the funniest!

Note: Ribbons shown were collected/traded. I didn't design these ones :)

My collection of One Piece badge ribbons I've collected from other creators over the years! Which one is your favorite?

Okay, before you think "Eww, BROWN badge ribbons??," just hear me out. I think brown ribbons are actually kind of underrated. They can be really pretty with the right foil combinations!

Here's a little design guide on brown badge ribbons:

⛱️ TAN: A soft, warm, sandy light brown

- Best Foil Pairings: Red, indigo, black

- Playful Options: Feel free to play around with other combinations since it’s neutral!

🥨 CARAMEL: A medium brown like creamy milk chocolate

- Best Foil Pairings: White, silver, black

☕️ MOCHA: A reddish-brown with a cozy, fall-like dusky rose undertone

- Best Foil Pairings: White, silver, rose gold, gold, maroon, copper

🍫 BROWN: A dark, rich shade like hot chocolate and brownies

- Best Foil Pairings: Copper, rose gold, gold, silver, white, green, purple

Which brown ribbon combo is your favorite? Also, if you want to design your own custom badge ribbons, it's super easy with pc/nametag's online design tool. Just drag and drop your elements or upload your own art. Let me know if you have questions.

Have a great day, everyone!

TL;DR: I'll give you a discount code for 15% off badge ribbons from pc/nametag (which I'll send to you via ModMail), but you have to make a post in r/badgeribbons :)

Ideas of what to post:

• A picture of badge ribbons you've designed
• A picture of badge ribbons you've collected
• A question about badge ribbons for the group
• A post that follows the r/badgeribbons rules

I'd love to get more participation going in this sub, so thank you in advance for helping this become a more lively community :)

Looking forward to seeing your posts!

Hi, bookish friends! :) I love reading for fun and I'm sure you do too, so here's some of the book inspired badge ribbons I've collected over the years.

- Which of these is your favorite?

- What book phrase would you want to have on your own badge ribbons?

When I am at fan events and conventions, I am always looking to trade for book ribbons. I'm hoping I'll find a few more at Dragon Con this year 😁

Note: The badge ribbons in my photo are by individual creators. I do not claim ownership of the designs

VOTE: I am curious, where do you stick YOUR badge ribbons?

• Stick them directly to my con badge
• Stick them on an acrylic ribbon holder
• Collect/trade them only - I don't stick them anywhere
• Make something wearable out of my ribbons
• Other/something else?

I'm seeing more people buy/make fun badge ribbon holders like this one. I saw this one at r/dragoncon, which features the famous Marriott carpet pattern lol

P.S. Had a great chat with u/HaveCamerawilcosplay today about how truly HUGE badge ribbon culture is getting (and it just keeps growing - wooo!) This post is in your honor :)

How many of these references can you get? 😉

OKAY, so technically they aren't all "anime" per se, but I was picking badge ribbons that had a fun phrase and a character on them to give you more of a hint.

Go ahead and give it a shot 😁 Also, let me know if you're stumped on any of them lol

P.S. I did not design these. I collected these ones from other creators

Purple is such a vibe! 💜 Here are the best shades of purple badge ribbons, plus the foil colors that (I think) look best with each.

A quick recap for easy reference:

Hello, everyone! Here are some Baldur's Gate 3 badge ribbons from my collection that you might all like. Which one is your favorite?

I'll be cosplaying a Nurgling from Warhammer40k. I'm going to be 3d printing badge ribbons to give out.

Nurgle / Death Guard fans, what's some good quotes or any litanies to use? Needs to be somewhat short.

Of all the cons and fandom events you've been to, which ones do you think are 100% worth going to? Why?

I really like Dragon Con because there's a huge badge ribbon culture there, people really go all-out with their cosplays, there's lots of "freebie" trading, and everyone is just genuinely SO excited to be there.

What's your take?
