The Story Of Picky Pads
Picky Pads exists because I couldn't stop picking my skin and everything I tried either broke, looked like it belonged in a daycare (i'm a grown-up yo!) or just didn't cut it.
I needed something that could actually handle real hands and real anxiety.
So I made one (The OG Silicone Picky Pad).
Then I made it better.
Then I made extra things.
Then I accidentally turned it into a business.
Now it’s a full-blown operation (still just me), making tools that give your hands something to do without the damage or the shame.
Professional[lly unprofessional] Owner
[Pictured: Raya drinking midday Aperol Spritz' in Italy...where she would rather be]
Meet Raya - the slightly unhinged, unprofessional, hyperactive Founder of Australia's favourite fidget business.
Manufacturer
Made one by one with caffeine, questionable playlists and zero supervision. If it's a but chaotic, that's because I am...especially if I forgot to take my ADHD meds.
Customer Service
Yes it's me in your inbox. Be nice - I'm doing 14 jobs and probably retrieving snacks for the Overlords I created. I'll fix it, just don't come in hot. I get overwhelmed very easily with external demands so just gimme a sec to log in.
Marketing
If it made you laugh, cringe or immediately need one (hopefully) - that was me. No agency. No strategy deck. Just vibes, a WIFI connection and a struggling will to live.
Customer Service
Every order is packed by me, probably while doing three other things. Fast, accurate (🤞) and occasionally powered by panic.
Supervision
This is Jerry. He is the goodest boy to have ever lived and he supervises everything and has done nothing wrong in his life ever.
