Hi again,

Apologies for appearing again so quickly in your inbox, but ahead of next week's launch I wanted you all to decide the order in which the wooden mini pin stretch goals will unlock. They'll be doing so in groups of two, here are the hot off the presses finished designs for you to look closely at before going ahead and voting for your fave pair in the attached poll!


Made your decision then please do vote!

Best wishes,

Jess

Hi everyone,

First off thanks to those of you who voted in the poll to decide stretch goals...looks like we'll be going for the full 12 wooden mini pin collection! I'll be creating another poll soon so you can decide the unlock order for these.

So to the fun of freebies for this campaign....

Launching in 2 weeks!

Hi everyone!

There's just 2 weeks until launch now so it's definitely time to talk stretch goals! But before I go into detail on those here's a peak at the first designs and items that will unlock as soon as the initial funding goal is reached...

HOMEWARES

WOODEN MINI PINS



As you can see my old friends the birds are a great inspiration as always, but I've also ventured into some flowers too, specifically looking at birth flowers (I've got 8 more designs lined up for these so all 12 months would be covered).

So I've got a few options for stretch goals, and instead of guessing which you'd like I'd thought I'd turn to a good old poll to decide which ones you'd like me to unlock first etc. So what are the options....

Tea Towels - You could pick to unlock more designs for tea towels first, these could be inspired by my new flower illustrations or other birds from my vast bird illustration back catalogue.

Coasters - Like the tea towels option this would be to unlock more designs inspired by either birds or flowers.

Wooden Mini Pins - For those like me who love a complete collection, this would be to eventually unlock all 12 birth flower designs as wooden mini pins. A great accessory for every month of the year or a great gift stash for birthdays of loved ones! 

It's over to you all to decide which way we go... just vote in the attached poll!

Best wishes,

Jess
