VOTE NOW - The Monster Makerspace has been funded!
Hi everyone,
Thank you so much for helping me reach my campaign goal today! ALL the Pintober campaigns have now been funded and we're hyped about it.
I've created a new poll ...
The enamel pins have arrived! I received all seven enamel pins yesterday and will be grading them over the next month. They turned out perfectly and I especially love the Monster Tool mini pins. I will be placing orders for acrylic pins, stickers, coloring books, and other additional items in early January. My plan is still to ship rewards out to backers in early February!
The survey is taking longer than I expected to get finalized. This is my first time running a campaign entirely in backerkit, so there's been a bit of a learning curve, and this has been a rather long month for me personally. I wanted to share an updates and give backers a more realistic timeline for surveys.
Pre-Order Store
The Monster Makers pre-order store will remain open until the end of the month! Anyone who missed out on backing the campaign can pre-order stickers, pins, etc. and receive them when campaign rewards ship.
VIRTUAL End of the Year Art Sale!
I'm hosting a virtual shop-at-your-own-pace event on my Facebook page this upcoming weekend. The virtual end of year art sale is an easy way for customers to shop from my art, stickers, and misc. crafts at discounted prices before the holidays. Items will be listed for sale in this Facebook event throughout the three day shopping event. Shopping is easy - if you see something you like, just leave a comment! At the end of the event shoppers will be invoiced and their purchases will be on their way.
Bookshelves for Bibliophiles Collab Partner Announcement!
I'm excited to announce that I've partnered with Violet Magician's Cryptid Carousel - Pride Flag Edition campaign for my upcoming Bookshelves for Bibliophiles campaign. Backers who support both campaigns will receive a free pin from each! These campaigns will be launching on January 23rd as part of Backerkit's Pintober 2025 event.
Made by Max Design's free pin is a Cryptozoology inspired bookcase. Violet Magician's free pin is a rainbow Funeral Mountain Terrashot filled with books.
The Monster Makers campaign is coming to an end! A few folks have had to scale back or pull their pledges, which is a fairly normal occurrence, which has caused the campaign to dip back under the $1,000 stretch goal. Don't worry about it - I plan to move forward with manufacturing the Sewing Studio pin regardless! If the campaign reached $1,200 before it ends we'll unlock another design.
Recap of unlocked items:
Arts and Crafts 2" enamel pin
Sewing Studio 2" enamel pin
Monster Wrench mini pin
Monster Pincushion mini pin
Monster Paintbrush mini pin
Monster Pliers mini pin
Monster Cookie mini pin - folks who back 3+ will receive a freebie one!
Monster Makers logo sticker - every backer will receive a freebie one!
3" Vinyl Stickers of ALL monster designs - early bird backers will receive a freebie one!
Acrylic Pins of Locked Designs I will be offering any of the monster designs that were not unlocked as enamel pins during the campaign as 2" acrylic pins. This will allow backers who really wanted specific designs to get them! These pins will be available as part of your pledge or as an add on item once the campaign ends. The acrylic pins will be exclusive to backers and made in very limited quantities, so please fill out your backer survey when it goes out if you want one.
NEW Coloring Book Add On! Monster Makers: Crafty Characters Coloring Book features the designs from the Monster Makers campaign (10 monsters + 4 monster tools). This will be a 6"x9" saddle stitched booklet with a full color cover and black and white illustrations inside. Each coloring sheet will be single sided to prevent markers and pens bleeding through the pages to other designs. There coloring books are now available as an add-on item for $7 each.
