Hello, I’m sorry for going away again. I didn’t mean to do this to everyone. I don’t want to go too far into personal details, but at some point my stress and mental stability reached their tipping point, and I tried to force myself to be better, which utterly backfired and I shut down fully.

VioletCascade isn’t a business it exists because I want to make these products for others and myself. I’m not for profit, I’m for making things that make people happy. I promised I would make these pins, and you bet I will! For the long wait, there are going to be additional out-of-pocket surprises for everyone. I just want to do what I’d planned before becoming ill and hope it’ll create a good experience or as much as I possibly can to make up for being gone.

I’ve got strawberry patterned tape and pink cardboard boxes ready to go as soon as I receive the pins and other items! I’m a little bit of a perfectionist, and I want these things to bring joy and not be filled with negativity. While I have others around me to help, there’s not exactly anyone who can jump in and inform you when things go wrong, and this is something I realise should be disclosed or that I need to fix in future campaigns. 

Additionally, I got a little bit too caught up in the news, which didn’t greatly help my mental health pertaining to convincing myself that the pins had any value with what’s going on currently around the world. But hopefully they can be a little bit of joy in all this.

I’ve redesigned this honeypurry pin to feature the same transparency effect as the sugar jar pin

Again sorry for disappearing I’ll work on that and being more open to communication instead of shutting down and avoiding things!

Thanks for sticking around, I’ll be answering questions and working on completing things from here <3
