Consent Badge Design

You may have seen my acrylic and other styles of consent badges around before! I will have them at conventions I visit, along with in my shop!

My badges are available in acrylic badge, acrylic mini pin, or fabric badge format.

Unfortunately I have seen others taking my designs directly and trying to pass them off as their own. I have no problems with others creating their own consent badges (see below), but when others take my designs and copy them, even just what is represented in the unique icons, it hurts my business.

I am an independent artist and conventions are my full-time job. I have spent hours on each icon I create for these badges. Despite the amount of time and energy designing these take, I have these priced very low so all can enjoy them. Having them stolen takes away my livelihood.

Key features that separate out my badges from others:

  • Square shape with rounded corners
  • Solid colors
  • Big bold fonts and icons
  • Unique icons for most designs
    • Circle, triangle, and X of course don’t count
    • All icons have been hand vectored by myself, you won’t find the same icon available elsewhere
    • Many of the designs I have had to create my own ideas for how to portray what’s on the badge, such as Light Sensitivity, Handler, Do Not Boop, and more

Other’s Designs

Obviously I don’t own the idea of these consent badges, but I wanted to share designs others have created showing how creative you can get with creating designs that aren’t copying my own! These styles are also for inspiration only! And we have linked to each artists’ shop where we could.
