The SCUM Bucket

The SCUM BUCKET is a partnership between two independent artists: SCUMSUCK and Deflectric. SCUMSUCK conceptualizes and designs most everything in the SCUM BUCKET store. Deflectric manages the inner workings and produces the stickers.

Much of our inspiration comes from the animals we foster, whether weenie dogs or stinky cats. We rescue many strays from outside, and get them spayed & neutered ASAP so no more strays are made. All proceeds from this store go directly to taking care of our dogs, cats, and 4 lovely chickens. Beware if you're allergic to these animals! You may get a stray cat hair on your package... Anything leftover after budgeting for 500 lbs of cat litter goes towards our bills, thus giving us the ability to make more art for your free viewing pleasure :)

Paper goods such as stickers, zines, and art prints are print and cut in my home. I use a Canon printer, and Canon or Red River photo paper. Stickers may be cut with a plotter machine, or by hand. Zines are cut with a guillotine and stapled by hand. Charms and DTG pillowcases and mousepads are outsourced, usually to Vograce (CN) or ZapCreatives (UK). You can read Zap's enviromental policy here: https://zapcreatives.com/pages/environmental-policy I use recyclable and reusable packaging as much as possible. Items are packed in unwaxed glassine paper bags. Those are then packaged in plain paper mailing envelopes. Occasionally, I may recycle branded plastic shipping envelopes. Shane and I pack everything by ourselves We spend the weekend organizing orders, and ship out on Monday via USPS. (weather and COVID permitting)
