Custom enamel pins turn a plain jacket, lanyard or tote into wearable art, and double as collectible brand keepsakes people actually keep. Patch&Bagel produces custom enamel pins in Singapore from a minimum order of 50 pieces per design (from SGD $320 for 50 pieces and $520 for 100), in hard or soft enamel, with a free digital proof and roughly a 2–3 week production time. This guide covers design ideas for self-expression, the difference between hard and soft enamel, and how to order.
What is the minimum order for custom enamel pins in Singapore?
The minimum order for custom enamel pins at Patch&Bagel is 50 pieces per design, from SGD $320 for 50 pieces and $520 for 100. A magnet backing option is available from SGD $352 for 50. Every order includes a free digital proof before production, so you can check the artwork, colours and pin size.
Hard enamel or soft enamel for wearable pins?
Choose hard enamel for a smooth, polished, jewellery-like surface that resists scratches, and soft enamel for a textured finish with raised metal lines and slightly deeper colour wells. Hard enamel feels more premium and hard-wearing for everyday wear; soft enamel is a touch more affordable and shows fine detail well. Both use the same metal plating options and the same MOQ of 50.
Design ideas: how to make a pin express personality
The best self-expression pins keep one clear idea — a symbol, a phrase, a mascot — with bold shapes and 3 to 5 colours rather than fine gradients. Enamel reproduces flat colour and clean outlines beautifully, so simple, graphic artwork reads better than photographic detail. Think in terms of a small icon a person would be happy to wear daily: a hobby, an in-joke, a team crest, or a character. For photo-realistic colour you would move to a printed format instead.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between hard and soft enamel pins? Hard enamel is polished flat and smooth for a premium, scratch-resistant finish; soft enamel has raised metal lines and a textured surface. Both are available at Patch&Bagel from 50 pieces.
How many colours can an enamel pin have? Enamel pins work best with a handful of solid colours and clean outlines; 3 to 5 colours reproduce cleanly, while fine gradients are better suited to printed formats.
