✨ Kindling Design Reveal ✨ Plus poll results! :)
about 1 year ago – Sun, Jan 26, 2025 at 10:34:55 AM

Whew - I'm in such disbelief of how far we've come! In the first few days, this campaign has gone so much farther than any of my previous campaigns eve did, already passing most of their final totals! I am definitely in catch-up mode now as I thought I would have weeks to do the work that now needs to be done in days lol or days ago - but I am so happy to see how many of you have connected with these sorceresses and their familiars 🖤

I spent all of yesterday hard at work on finishing the next design - Kindling and I am so excited to share how she turned out with you! 🖤 I hope you guys love her and her sorceries! 


Shrouded in dark shadows, the bats sing into the night - songs barely to be heard by creatures of the day - but sing they do. They sing until they herald the dawn of a new day. What tender kindling waits within you in the dark, waiting to be sparked to life? What song is ringing at the edge of hearing that would give your life meaning, when brought into the light?



I am also excited to announce that the winner of the poll for the extra design to be unlocked was Quiescence! This was one I really wanted to include in the collection from the beginning, but because these extra large pins are so much more expensive to manufacture, I had thought it wasn't realistic to think we could get high enough to unlock more than a few designs - so being able to add her back into the collection is so wonderful and exciting! I can't wait to transform her into a beautiful enamel and metal art piece to serve as a totem to the quiet potential for all things to grow and thrive, waiting in the dark like a silky rabbit. 



And, not only did the poll results come in last night - but we also unlocked her design yesterday as well!! 🖤


We are also just a few backers away from unlocking the "Backers Goal" of adding Embers to the sticker choices available as $3 add-ons as well - in addition to Shimmer, Kindiling, and Illumination that are already unlocked as sticker add-ons :) 

I plan to put up another stretch goal for a new pin design as well in the next day or two - but I want to be cautious about not adding too many designs to this campaign. My previous campaigns ended with 20+ designs and have been quite challenging to manufacture and fulfill, so my goal for this one is to keep it streamlined enough that I will be able to fulfill it quickly and efficiently - that being said I think we are still well within the safety margins :) so I will have an update on that soon as well! 

Thank you so much again, everyone 🖤 I'm truly so grateful and honored to see my work resonate with you and your trust in my ability to create something beautiful for you. Making beautiful and meaningful relics for our lives is what gives my life purpose and meaning and so it means so much to me that you are here and a part of it 🖤 Thank you!

Ok, and I must get back to work finishing Illumination's design :) 

✨ All 4 Stretch Goals Unlocked! ✨
about 1 year ago – Fri, Jan 24, 2025 at 12:49:26 PM

Oh my goodness - I can't even believe I'm saying this, but we've unlocked all 4 stretch goals I had hoped to unlock in this campaign in the first day!! This was beyond my wildest thoughts or hopes of how we could go with this campaign. Thank you so much everyone for bringing this collection to life ✨🖤✨ I'm honestly so overwhelmed and overjoyed to see that there are so many people connecting with these Sorceresses.

The Sorceress series has always been near and dear to my heart, and being able to transform these paintings into beautiful enamel totems of their spirit is so amazing.

I was definitely not prepared for how amazingly fast this campaign would take off - so I am playing a little catch-up 😅 with getting the designs polished and ready to share. But I will be working non-stop on these in the coming days and sharing them as fast as I can :)

🌙 Higher Pledge Tiers: I've added higher tiers (up to 5 pins) as well, for those who wanted to get more of the unlocked designs. And I've also created an add-on for one pin just in case it's helpful to be able to add pins that way as well.

🌙 New Stretch Goals: Though I want to be careful not to add too many designs, I do have a few more paintings that I would love to transform into art pins as well! So I think a fun way to go about it will be to run a poll and let you guys vote on which sorceresses to summon into the collection :) So I hope to get that put together shortly - so keep an eye out for that! 

🌙 Bonus Backer Goals: I also added a new category of goals for this campaign "Backer Goals" to unlock different sticker designs from the collection as well. To keep everything simple, I am going to put those in the add-on section so you can easily add any you want to your pledge. These will be 3-inch vinyl stickers on white, that will allow you to bring a little of each sorceress's magic to an extra little nook in your life - be it a notebook, waterbottle, or tablet. We've already unlocked 2 of them already! :) 

Ok - I think that covers everything for now :) I'm going to get to work now on finishing up all the new unlocked designs! Thank you so much again everyone 🖤 I'm so so grateful to have you all here, and so excited to make beautiful things for you! 

✨ Funded!! ✨

Oh my goodness  - I can't believe we are funded already!! Thank you so much, everyone!! 🩶 This means so much to me and I am so excited to make these pins for you!

I was so nervous since these pins are a bit unusual with the style and size of them - but I really loved the idea of making these into ornamental art pieces and so I am so happy to see everyone else's excitement bring these to life!

The first pin is unlocked - and I can't wait to share new designs as we unlock them!! :) The next painting to be transformed into a pin meditation is Kindling!
 

Thank you again everyone 🩶
