Hello StoryPinners!

I am Margo Gillis (She/Her)!
I'm Margo Gillis, a Black Business Owner and Atlanta native with a love of fantasy, sci-fi, romance, and more! Twilight opened worlds to me, and Wattpad let me choose the realms I wanted to dive into. My fascination with stories evolved, hand-in-hand with my growing obsession for enamel pins. They became my way to express my love for dark romance, anime, K-pop, and other personal passions.
You see, growing up, I was always the "weird black girl" in the corner with a book or geeking out with the anime crew. My pins became my voice, a way to proudly show off my interests without a word, and without fear of judgment.
Fast forward to November 2023, and there's me and my husband, turning our utility closet into a sanctuary for all of our books: A home library that sparked the birth of Pinstory. It was a project that started with displaying what I loved, and grew into a space that soon became the cornerstone of a new adventure.
Before Pinstory, my growing pin collection was just shoved in my drawer. I would continue to add to them after each Con, but just place them in a bag and hide them away, because they did not have a place that displayed them the way I felt they deserved to be shown. It wasn't until these pins found their rightful place on our library wall that I realized they needed a stage – a place not just to exist but to tell their stories.
Pinstory is that stage. It's more than a brand; it's a vessel for every collector, reader, and dreamer to frame their unique narratives. Here, your pins aren't just metal and enamel; they're chapters of your story, a visual memoir of who you are, where you have been, and what you felt when you were there. I invite you to let your pins live out of the shadows and into the light that there were created for.
These are Your Pins, Your Story, a testament to the tales that weave the fabric of your identity, ready to be celebrated every day in your personal haven. Welcome to Pinstory – where your story is our passion.
With a pinch of magic, a dash of luxury, and a ribbon of nostalgia, we present to you Pinstory – where every pin begins a new story.
