it's been a busy week of trying to keep afloat upon our return from renegade! we had a mountain of email to tackle, as well as orders to fill & sanity to keep. but we're excited that we've added this great new feature to the site: badge pendants. any of the little badges from the menagerie can now be ordered as a pendant on a sterling chain:
