Introduce the Idea

I am creating a series of blind boxes called To Soft To Be Punk. This project explores the playful contrast between cuteness and rebellion through a series of collectible blind-box charms. Each character is an adorable, mainstream-appeal animal—like a cat, dog, or rabbit—decorated with punk-style piercings and metal accessories. Inspired by internet memes about trying to look “tough” but still being soft inside, the series humorously reflects how self-expression through piercings can create both confidence and vulnerability. By combining subcultural aesthetics with charming character design, the project celebrates individuality, emotional honesty, and the unexpected sweetness behind a seemingly edgy appearance.

These charms offer both a playful aesthetic and a small symbol of individuality.
