This update is being sent to all followers of Sunset Road.

Hello friends! Smoke tests are officially out ahead of schedule; if all goes well, all surveys will be sent out tomorrow afternoon!

I added multiple purple celestial color variants of designs as requested! I love how they turned out and they match my partner project, Space Witch, SO well. They will be available in the survey.

If you missed out on this campaign, the preorder store is open! This will be open for about 2 weeks as people fill out their surveys. Check it out now so you don't miss out on any of these designs.

If you pledged to A Gothic Revival and your payment is still showing as failed, please make sure to update ASAP so you don't miss out on the pins and rewards from this project. Surveys close on May 8th and freebies will be removed from orders with unfinished surveys by May 12th.

This campaign is a love letter to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and full of nostalgia. Parade Party will feature some of your favorite iconic characters that have appeared in the parade over the year in enamel pin form!

That's all for now! Keep an eye on your inbox for the full survey hopefully tomorrow!

XO,

Hello friends! Thank you again for such an incredible campaign. Popping in to say I'm working on the surveys. We're still on track to get them out to you by 4/26. I'll have a couple extra add-on designs and color variants I'm wrapping up drawing that will be available in the survey. A couple of the pin designs will be offered in a purple colorway since that was the big winner!

If you're in the NYC area, come see me at Bookcon this weekend! I'll be at the Javits Center 4/18 and 4/19 at booth 1327. We're super excited to vend at this convention.

Our next campaign is launching in June as part of the Pin Kids Collective and it's called Parade Party! It will feature designs based on balloons in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. I grew up obsessed with the parade and frankly, I still am. So this will be a fun campaign featuring designs of some of your favorite parade balloon icons over the years.

That's all for now - I'm continuing to work on getting the survey put together and I'll update again once I get the smoke tests out. Enjoy your week!

We did it! If things stay the same and don't dip under that $11k mark, we have officially unlocked every single level and design in this campaign. THANK YOU so much for supporting this niche vampire campaign of my dreams. I'm so happy these designs reached an audience that can appreciate them.

You voted on your preferred color variant for the lanterns, and purple won by a LARGE margin. I went ahead and proofed what that will look like, and put a celestial twist on it:

This design came out lovely! It really matches our partner project, Space Witch. Let me know in the comments if you'd like to see other designs in this campaign in a purple colorway and I can maybe add a couple to the survey add-ons post-campaign. I do love a good purple variant!

There's only 30ish hours left of the campaign, so share with those who you think may want to pledge! I probably won't order many extras of a lot of these designs!

XO,
Nikki

Hello friends!

I've been quiet here this past week because I've been living out my gothic/witchy fantasy this past week at a small business conference in Salem, MA. It was great to be around fellow alternative creatives, including our partner project (and one of my besties) Laserbrain! Remember, if you pledge for our campaign and her campaign Space Witch you receive two free full-size enamel pins that complement each other very well.

While I was away, we unlocked the level where YOU get to vote on an alternate color variant for our stained glass lanterns! I've attached the poll below. The color with the most votes will be offered as variant for the stained glass portion of the lantern. I'll mock up the artwork for the winner and you can choose the red color variant, the winning color variant, or both will be available as an option!

We are less than $200 from unlocking TWO more levels which would unlock every single design in the campaign. If we hit $11k, we ALSO will unlock the achievement where every single backer receives a free red bat mini pin with their pledge. If you want the freebie and the two remaining designs unlocked, please share this campaign everywhere so we can hit that goal!

Thank you once again for such a phenomenal campaign so far. This campaign is such a niche, themed project that I'm thrilled has reached the audience that can appreciate it. Please, once again, share the project with anyone you would love this aesthetic.

Enjoy the weekend!
Nikki
