I wanted to share this one again while I wait for all my weekend designs to be approved. I colored this Palestinian flag with open source NASA photos.
My best friend is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. ALL PROCEEDS from these designs will go first and foremost to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this war.
Available here on shirts, stickers, hats, masks, etc.
All designs available here (click on each to see the design on other products as well). Adding new designs about daily.
I smushed two of my previous designs for my fundraiser together into a new design (original two below):
Once again mostly a good sticker design, though available on other products. All products with this design can be found here.
As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my designs are for my Palestinian best friend to help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
Here are some examples of products with this design (sticker, sweatshirt, pin):

Did you know NASA makes their astrophotography open source? They're one of my favorite resources. Since I started fundraising for my Palestinian friend I haven't looked at using them as much, but I'm still trying to mix these beautiful photos into my designs occasionally. This James Webb photo shows the Wolf–Rayet star WR 124 and the nebula M1–67. The above design can be found HERE. Some examples (shirts, sticker, acrylic block, notebook and pin):
As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop go to my Palestinian best friend to help him support his girlfriend in remaining safely in America until things calm down and to help his other loved ones around the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
It turns out that Redbubble collections cap out at 100 products, so I have temporarily removed my handful of products not related to Palestine and from now on I will dedicate my whole shop to this. My designs can be found here on my main page.
Here's one other astrophotography design I have in my collection:

Two new designs for my fundraising shop, found here and here. The first is the word فلسطين (Palestine in Arabic) edited into a simple open source dove design. The second is a vintage photo of stained glass windows in a mosque in Bethlehem (West Bank) from the Library of Congress. The original is pretty faded and dull, I messed with the saturation and contrast to make it pop more for a sticker design. It's pretty low resolution so I only have it available on stickers and a couple other small products. I really love this photo, it looks like it would make a great metal album cover (kinda reminds me of Sick With Bloom).
ALL PROCEEDS from my work are for my Palestinian best friend, to help him support his girlfriend in remaining in America until it's safe for her to travel back home and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
Here are the above displayed on a couple products:

I wanted to design something that the friend I am raising money for will actually wear this time. He's pretty minimal with his clothing, I've handmade a couple things for him in the past but none of my shop designs so far have suited him. Here's what I made:
The map is black with white lettering for stickers/magnets, white with black lettering on other products. I made it really small on the clothes and ordered him a basic gym shirt. The design can be found here.

I just added 3 more variants of this design to my fundraiser, here are all 4 displayed on stickers. The moon and stars are NASA public domain content, the sunsets are public domain works originally posted to Wikimedia Commons. These are available on a wide range of other products as well, such as shirts, pins, posters and notebooks:

You can find my shop here. I have now set all my older designs not related to Palestine to private. Anything you see in the shop is part of the fundraiser. Redbubble will pick a popular product to display the art on, click on each to see more product options. You can also find all my designs here.
Here is a sample of some of my top sellers, shown on stickers:

The pinkwashing of the genocide in Palestine is ridiculous. First of all gay rights is not an excuse for killing little kids, at all. Beyond that though, opinions on homosexuality are far from a monolith in the region. My Palestinian best friend and his very traditional, religious family are not homophobic in the slightest. My own white American family took decades longer to come around on gay rights than they did. Would it have been okay to bomb a large portion of the south in the 90s? Should my husband have been killed as a child for being born into a very standard (and very homophobic) sect of Christianity around then? Large swaths of Palestine are roughly where America was not so long ago. Laws are ambiguous (because occupation), some people are cool with gay people, some aren't, many don't really have an opinion. Some areas have a visible queer subculture, some don't. It varies, just like everywhere.
NONE OF THIS could justify the current violence (and PLENTY of queer Palestinians are being killed right now), but I think it's particularly absurd because Palestine really isn't that different than we were not so long ago, and most of us can agree the indiscriminate slaughter of Texans a few decades back would have been bad. Israeli propaganda would have you believe every Arab wants all gay people dead. This is ridiculous.
For more on gay rights in Palestine look at Al Qaws.
In light of this I have added this simple design to my shop (click here), I've seen a few people here expressing they want something like this for protests.
ANY AND ALL PROCEEDS from Palestine related sales through my Redbubble shop will go to my Palestinian best friend (same one mentioned above) to help him bring his girlfriend over to America. Any left over will be used to help his family/other loved ones affected by the war.

These six keffiyeh pattern maps are now available in my shop. I like the top left in particular, the folds of the fabric follow the shape of the country nicely. Available individually or in a sticker pack containing smaller versions of all six. Designs are also available on other products like shirts, hats, notebooks, etc. The shop will randomize which product it shows you, click on them to see more options.
Thank you so much to the anonymous Canadian customer who bought the keffiyeh wearing dove on a sweatshirt this morning. You are a wonderful person.
I've seen a lot of people buy stickers from various sources or make their own to hand out at protests (personally I was thrilled to receive handmade solidarity stickers from a kind woman at my last union action), so if you're looking to take advantage of Redbubble's bulk deals I might suggest that use.
I added a third skin color option to this older design, found here. These were mostly made with stickers in mind but are available on other products as well. The accent nails are a Palestinian flag and keffiyeh pattern.

I hope you all have found your local protest to join Monday (10/7), we're coming up on a year of active genocide. I'd really like to thank everyone who has helped me support my best friend through this fundraiser. He feels really weird accepting help from anyone but as grad students we get paid like shit so the extra money for his family is extremely useful. I was worried (still am honestly given the escalation recently) that he was going to have to delay his PhD to work more hours to support them (he's had to do so before unfortunately, he's had to overcome so many challenges coming from a family of refugees). The kindness shown by complete strangers has been heartwarming. Things are looking very bleak right now but it is some comfort to know how many people out there are fighting for this cause alongside him. When things started up a year ago he felt so alone, the shift in public sentiment has been great to see.
These are some of the best selling designs from the fundraiser so far:
Here are a few sample products with these designs:
Stickers are generally the most popular products. Shirts and pins also make a lot of sales, but there are a ton of other options in the shop: notebooks, puzzles, magnets, mugs, bags, posters and plenty more. EVERYTHING I RAISE is for my best friend. The money is sent home to support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries.

Thank you again for all the support!

As always EVERYTHING I EARN from my shop is for my best friend, a Palestinian grad student living in America. The money is sent home to support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries.

Starving grad student running a small Redbubble shop (initially for side income, now for fundraising for my Palestinian friend). Made this blog to share my designs, found here: https://www.redbubble.com/people/fairiedance/shopMy best friend (an absolutely brilliant scientist and compassionate social activist, seriously the best person ever) is a Palestinian grad student studying in America, and a lot of his friends and family are being affected by the genocide in Gaza and the fallout in the West Bank and surrounding areas. I have started selling Palestine related designs in my shop. EVERYTHING I RAISE he sends to his loved ones to help in various ways as the situation progresses.Designs not related to Palestine have been removed from my shop for now (probably for good at this point).
