Hope everyone is having a lovely friday nd beginning to the weekend!
I wanted to update you all with some lovely news! I have managed to negotiate a slightly lower rate with my manufacturer and I have already updated the story page graphics to reflect the new gaps in pricing between colors. I am quite pleased with the result of it too!
I have also so far added two sticker options for the moment. I will have to see about getting more art finished to try and add more.
But for today we have Orange and Yellow unlocked thanks to the negotiations!
I wanted to wait. Moment before updating, to avoid the flood of emails from all the campaigns!
I wanted to thank you for getting us funded within 12 hours of launch! Really just tickled with how well that went, and as of this morning, we have also unlocked the color orange!
I am currently in talks with my manufacturer about these pins to see if I can’t reduce my cost a little bit to be able to drop the amount between tears down just a little bit. I will let you know how that goes. If you don’t see any changes know that my negotiation did not go as I wanted them to, but hopefully I can tweak them a little bit.
Even though we have a long list of designs and color variants to go through, I wanted to give you guys another poll to pick out your next favorite designs and also let me know in comments here or on the poll itself what base you would like to see me use for what design I’d like to know what you guys think.
Also, from day one I wanted to thank everybody again if you popped in and hung out during my stream while I was drawing chibis of the pin designs just to get to know them a little bit better or at least so you can get to know them better.
During that stream, I ended up drawing purple and yellow, and I started outlining blue. If I can squeeze the time, I will try to stream again in the next few days and see how many more designs I can work through… they are just for fun, but it’s a nice way to hang out with everybody. Ask questions in real time and get answers and just get to know everybody.
Reminder that the initial launch goal will bring us both Rainbow and pink to start off with!! 💕💕
Two for one goal! Huzzah!
We also have the collab and partner collab pins !
Starting off with all the goodies this round!
Pride collab - free with backing 3+ campaigns
Partner collab - free if you back my partner and I!
The stretch goals between pins after each color is unlocked is less for the individual flags as we’re going to be reusing the molds!
Easier to unlock and more goodies to pick from!
My hope is that people can grab the colors they like and can build your own “flag” as you see fit to, or if we unlock the flag then that’s optional too! But I really like the idea of a good mix and match!
Upcoming campaigns for 2026
Our very first bag! We couldn’t be more thrilled to be getting into this! A unique three windowed lantern purse! We wanted to make a wonderfully unique and medium-to-large bag that will be suitable for daily use as well as big enough to be a bit if a gremlin and carry all of your goods.
Lost in the realm of fantasy and magic. A pin series of fanciful creatures and magics. Leshy, Unicorns, Selkies and more.
We are making good strides in getting this campaign set up and looking It’s best!
We figured you all might like to see Rainbow! She is an add on option as an acrylic keychain! Roughly 2.5” is my goal, but we might push her to three….
At present we have 7 main pins and 6 stretch goals!
Collaboration freebie
Our collaboration freebie will be this UV printed rainbow gradient frog! This cutie will be 1.5”
We can’t wait to see this launch! Pins for Pride is lookiNg to be a total blast!
