A collection of enamel pins, acrylic charms, stickers, and more!
This post is for backers only. Please visit Kickstarter.com and log in to read.
And with that, the campaign has ended very successfully, far outdoing any of my own expectations for this, my second project! Thank you so much for the, quite frankly, ridiculous amount of support and enthusiasm! 🍂
Now that the funding portion of the campaign has concluded, I'll be sending out surveys via Backerkit shortly (I'll be sure to send another update at which point they've been distributed). Once received, it is important that everyone fills theirs own as soon as possible, as production cannot begin until I have accurate counts to adjust orders accordingly.
Additionally, there is a period of delay between the official end of the campaign and when the funds are released to me, during which all the payments are processed. Please be sure to check you pledge to make sure it was properly processed-- there is a week long period during which the issue may be resolved, after which point your pledge will be dropped and you won't receive your rewards!

On my end, during this period of limbo while everything is presently out of my hands, I'll be working on finalizing all artwork and prepping files so that I may place orders and begin production on all items as soon as the campaign funds land in my bank account-- I want to hit the ground running to get all these wonderful goodies to you all as soon as possible!
For everyone who added on for a custom Garden Ghost: You'll be individually hearing from me at some point in the near future to establish further details; please note that they are all handmade and painted, so there may be some idiosyncrasies in the timeline!

For more frequent, smaller updates on the process, find me on my Instagram @crow.dessa! I might share some aspects of the process on my TikTok as well, which is under the same username! Additionally, any questions or concerns about the project or your pledge can be directed to me here on Kickstarter, via Instagram DMs, or via my email ([email protected]).

🍂 Overall, to reiterate, a tremendous thank you to each and every individual who has has come creeping out of the woodwork to support this project, a project that i might add ultimately started as a flight of fantasy on my part! At present, I am a part-time student (which, honestly, is rubbing shoulders with full-time), along with dealing with a myriad of health struggles that come with being chronically ill and disabled (a state of being which on occasion feels like a full-time job in and of itself). All that to say, my circumstances leave me unable to work an orthodox job-- my art in its various forms is my only source of income; your support makes an immediate and palpable impact in my existence as a small, independent creator!

It appears my little corner of the internet has now grown much larger; I am delighted to have you all on board!

My apologies in the delay for getting this update out to you, between my course load and unpredictable health, I'm sometimes unable to finish up artwork and details as fast as I'd like to. However! Thank you so much to everyone who weighed in on the survey I sent out, these three items were overwhelmingly the most popular among the responses:
MINI PINS:
Not one, but three mini pins have been added to the collection! Mini pins were the most requested in the survey by far, and through the continued popularity of the campaign I was able to add multiple designs! These little guys will measure around 1" each (hard enamel + gold plated).
Everyone who has pledged at the full collection tier will receive one mini pin of their choice as a freebie, (additional pins may be added on!).
Mini pins are available as an add-on for $6 apiece, or $15 for the full set. (If you'd like just two, you can set the add-on to a quantity of 2).
TOTE BAG:
Tote bags! Get yourself a garden ghost tote bag to help you with your errands! The design will be screenprinted on a neutral cotton tone bags.
Tote bags available as an add-on for $12.
PUMPKIN PERCH STICKER:
I had to get a crow into this project somewhere, and a sticker seemed like the perfect spot! These stickers will measure 3" tall, printed on matte vinyl.
Stickers are a freebie for all pin tiers!

The mini pins and tote bag (and additional quantities of any freebies) can be added to your pledge via the add-on feature! Please let me know if you have any questions, it can be difficult to organize pricing + add-ons and I totally understand any confusion that may arise!
Thank you so much to everyone who's pledged to this project, or shared it with a friend!
Stay spooky, Odessa 🗝
Apologies for the update spam-- I am truly blown away by the love and support everyone has shown for this project! In under 36 hours, all of the stretch goals I went into this project hoping to reach by end have been fully funded! The spooks are far from over, though, it's just the beginning, after all! 👁 Keep an eye out, doesn't have to be yours, for secrets around the bend at $2500!
Making friends with the shadows, Odessa 🗝
Hello all, and happy Labor Day to everyone in the US! It is just over 24 hours into the project; we have already unlocked all of the pin designs and we are well on our way to funding the final stretch goal of the Garden Ghost acrylic charm and Tastefully Spooky washi tape! After that, who knows, there may be some secrets lurking down the pike-- only time will tell!
