The Beast postcard print is done! I still think the Entity is my favorite (he's a hard one to follow up), but the Beast has a chaotic energy I just love.
That means only The Maw remains, who is my personal favorite monster. I'll finish him up as soon as I can, and I am aiming for this weekend.
The Shadow print also needs a bit of work, he was originally made to be a video/gif only, before I decided on prints, so the area underneath where the text box used to be is messy. Cast shadows of branches will likely also be added to the window light shining on the wall (unless it looks terrible). I actually meant to add those originally, but forgot. These are relatively quick fixes that will also come this weekend or just after.
Here are the postcards so far! I will likely brighten up and increase saturation on some of them so they all feel equal in contrast/color, but no big changes to come. :)
6x4 postcard Vampire
6x4 postcard Observer
6x4 postcard Demon
6x4 postcard Entity

A big thank you again for all your support! I'm thrilled and still a little stunned at how much love you've shown these spooky guys💖
Now a big wall of text with reminders about next steps after the campaign.
Campaign ends Tomorrow - Reminders/Next Steps
Dear Creatures ends on November 5th at 3PM CST! BackerKit will then charge you for your pledge. This typically takes a day or two, and it happens automatically. I do not decide when BackerKit attempts to charge your payment method.
Please adjust or cancel your pledge before then if necessary!
Declined Payments If BackerKit can't charge your card for some reason, you'll receive an email notice of the declined payment with instructions on fixing it. You will have 14 days after campaign end to fix your payment method. According to BackerKit, they will automatically try charging payment methods again up to 4 times over a 15 day window. Again, in this case, I do not decide when BackerKit attempts to charge your payment method.
Backers that are not able to fix their payments within this window will still receive a survey where they can add payment in order to reinstate their pledge!
Pay Over Time Reminders Pay Over Time allows you to split pledges of $150 or more (before shipping and tax) into four interest-free, automated monthly installments with no additional charges. If you selected Pay Over Time, you'll be imported into Pledge Manager, but will not be get a survey until full pledge balance is paid (after the fourth installment).
Once the 4 months are up or full pledge payment is paid, whichever comes first, you will be automatically invited to the survey. You will receive the survey link by email within 72 hours after your final installment successfully processes. You will not receive the survey until your pledge is paid in full.
This means these Pledge Manager surveys will be delayed, but I always order extra product, and additionally will account for Pay Over Time folks in my item counts.
Surveys The PledgeManager survey is where you choose your rewards and add-ons and provide a shipping address. You can also add additional add-ons if you want. My plan is to send the survey out around November 24th. That will give me time to set up the survey and the pre-order store, and allow backers to fix their payments. I will close surveys sometime in Mid-December. This will be sent to the email you use to log into BackerKit, so be sure you have access to this email!
I'll let you know if there are delays with the survey.
Shipping Fees As stated many places in the campaign, shipping is charged closer to fulfillment. Shipping is also calculated based on weight of your package. Any additionaly add-ons you add in the survey will be charged at this point, too. This final charge is estimated to happen sometime in early 2027. You will be able to update your address at any time up until that point, and a little after!
I have set my shipping estimate fairly far into the future: May 2027, just in case of manufacturing delays.
Hopefully fulfillment can happen sooner—but no promises—as pin manufacturing has been taking much longer for many artists recently.
Thank you!
I think that's it for now! I will update again shortly after campaign end and keep you updated on production and artwork.
Can you believe it? We're in the final hours of The Bubbling Cauldron: Magical Jams & Jellies! 🎉
What an incredible little adventure full of furble mischief, glowing jam, one diligent cat, and lots of fun. Thanks to your wonderful support, we've unlocked all the main enamel pins and magical jam jars! Our witch's kitchen is officially overflowing with magic, and I couldn't be happier!
✨ Have You Explored the Add-Ons?
More magic awaits beyond the enamel pins! You'll find magnetic bookmarks, notepads, stickers, mystery sticker packs, and our illustrated pin banner, all inspired by the world of The Bubbling Cauldron.
And don't forget to check out Lunar Sight, our special magical jam inspired by The Pinkberry Incident!
If you haven't read the story behind the glowing eyes and jam, you can read it here:
I want to take a moment to thank every single one of you.
Whether you've backed the campaign, shared it with a friend, followed along with the story, or simply cheered us on, you've helped make this little magical world possible.
I have loved every minute of creating these illustrations, developing the characters, and sharing their stories. Seeing so many of you embrace this whimsical little world has made the experience even more special.
Thank you for being part of this adventure and for helping bring The Bubbling Cauldron to life!
We're almost at the finish line, Jam Brewers! Just a few more hours until we close the kitchen doors and get ready for the next chapter: bringing all this magic into the real world! If you haven't joined and would like a piece of the sweet magic, you can visit the campaign here:
With lots of gratitude and a little sprinkle of magic
Unlock a FREE glow-in-the-dark eyes upgrade for the Pinkberry Mulberry enamel pin! Once we reach the goal, all backers receiving this pin will get the glowing-eyes upgrade at no additional cost.
Goal: $8,000 reached! — We did it! This project reached this goal!
Hi guys! Thank you so much for supporting this project ^-^ the campaign has successfully ended. We were able to unlock 7 pins!
Pledge Payment Processing Backerkit has already started processing your pledges! There were some failed charges. If your pledge was among them, please fix it as soon as possible 💛 you can also fix it later during the survey phase.
Surveys In the survey you can tell me which pin designs and add-ons you want (if you pre-selected them in your pledge), your address and if you want to add any extra add-ons or extra pins :) I'll soon start sending out the survey smoke test. Some of you will receive the survey a little earlier (in the next few days) to test it and check for any bugs or errors. Once this testing phase is complete, you will all receive your surveys to fill out.
Shipping Shipping costs will be charged once the pins are on their way to me. This means that I can account for any fluctuations in shipping prices and that you won't need to pay everything up front during the first survey phase.
US Backers - Tariffs:
The tariffs and respective custom duties will be pre-paid and collected during the survey phase so you will not have to deal with it upon receiving your package!
You can expect an additional 5-15% of your total order (excluding shipping) charge to cover the tariffs/customs duties.
Do you have any questions? Let me know in the comments!
Remember to vote on both new pins before November 4th and add additional pins to your order if you'd like to pick up one of the extra designs too.
If you still haven't backed the campaign time is beginning to run out. You can back the campaign here.
Thank you everyone!
UPDATE: For those of you who are trying to get every pin, we've added a new pledge level named "Heroes of the Multiverse" this pledge level contains 18 pins, so you'll have enough pins to grab all the stretch goals too. We're planning a final stretch goal at $12K and this pledge level will receive that secret pin for free if we manage to reach it!
Hoppy (late) Froggoween! Hope that those who celebrated it had a great time with amazing costumes! I spend my Halloween (which isn't really celebrated in the Netherlands) helping out on a Pokemon TCG fair 😆 I wore my most spooky t-shirt tho!
We're entering the last few days/hours of the Pintober event and we're extremely close to unlocking the Snail mini pin (at this point of writing we're missing €1...). A very kind Backer just made us reach the goal for the Snail! The Snail mini pin is now also unlocked! So I wanted to show the mystery pins of the last three stretch goals!
After unlocking the Snail next up is the Ghost Floris! I'll have to ask my manu if they can do glow-in-the-dark but if they can I'd like to try that out! Ghost Floris is an very old design from back in 2020 which I really loved and this was the perfect moment to update him and turn him into a pin! The other two designs are previously sticker designs but also tickled my brain to be turned into enamel pins.
I really do hope we can reach and go past the €2250 goal to unlock the Snail! If we do every Backer who pledged to a 3+ enamel pins pledge level will get the Snail added for free. It will also be available as an add-on when unlocked seeing it's an mini pin and those are a bit cheaper than the regular sized pins. (But I mostly want the Snail pin myself too, ahaha.) We've just unlocked it! You can now find it as an extra add-on in the Add-on section for €8 per Snail. All Backers in the pledge levels of 3 or more pins get one Snail mini pin added for free! The mini pin can also be bought as many times extra too.
And one last add on is that in the Survey, after the project has ended, I'll add some extra Froggoween themed items like notepads! Forgot I had those so will add them there :>
Wishing you all a frogtastic week and very excited to see where the project will finish on!
Unlock a FREE glow-in-the-dark eyes upgrade for the Pinkberry Mulberry enamel pin! Once we reach the goal, all backers receiving this pin will get the glowing-eyes upgrade at no additional cost.
Goal: $8,000 reached! — We did it! This project reached this goal!
What a very nice and cozy first 48 hours! Thank you all for the support and I hope you found some fun projects to back within the Pintober event as well! If you back 3 or more you will get all kinds of cute freebies as Trick or Treat from those projects.
Great news is that the first 5 pins and the mini pin set (the leaves) are all unlocked! 🐸🍄🟫 That means only the Mushrooms Floris and the Snail mini pin are left to unlock.
The fun part with the Snail is that when it's unlocked at €2250, all backers in the 3 pins pledge levels or higher, will get this mini pin added for free. It will also be available separate in the survey after the project has finished.
General survey info Speaking of the survey: After the project ends I'll be sending a survey out to all backers. In this survey you must fill in what pin design(s) you wanted to get specifically. But also your address, in this survey you will also see the correct amount of shipping costs. You can also add some extra products if you missed out on something, like and extra pin design, or sticker sheet.
Early and Returning backer stickers available in survey I've also decided to add the Early frog and Returning frog vinyl sticker designs in the survey! They are free if you qualify for them (aka: back in the first 48h as Early Frog (now past that timeline), or be a Returning backer) but otherwise you can add one (or more!) to your order via the survey for a vinyl sticker price. Which is €3 per sticker.
Previous year Froggoween pins as add-ons Also wanted to let you know I've added previous year's Froggoween enamel pins as an add-on to the project. I completely forgot about them whilst setting it up and preparing for a 5 day convention I am currently doing. But you can add them now too! It's 7 pin designs of Floris in Froggoween costumes, very cute if I may say so myself. Most popular one last year was Frankenstein, but on conventions the Vampire and the Witch are the big ones!
Froggoween pins from 2025
And a reminder that you can always change your pledge while the project is still live. So you can add or remove add-ons, or switch pledge levels if you wish to do so! Again thank you all for the support! If we keep this up I'll have to give some sneak peeks to the stretch goal designs next week already, hehe.
Have a great early weekend and feel free to share the project with other cozy frog lovers!
With only a few more days until the project goes live I'd wanted to share the freebies you can get in this project!
Pintober freebie mini pin, Froggoween colours
Trick or Treat freebie mini pin First up, during this even with Pintober, if you back 3 or more projects you will get the 'Trick or Treat' freebie mini pin of each of those backed projects! Fall times with Floris freebie is a wrapped candy in Halloween colours, to fit next to the previous year candy. (Additional coloured candy mini pins can be bought as an add-on if you wish you have more 'flavours'.)
Early Backer freebie vinyl sticker (will be without the dotted background)
Returning Backer freebie vinyl sticker (will be without the dotted background)
Early and Returning Backer freebie stickers Next up are the Early and Returning Backer freebies. These are glossy vinyl stickers (size tbd, but probably around 5cm/2inch could be bigger) with two completely new artworks of Floris the Frog. I asked via a poll what folks would like to see and for a while it was a tie between 'general fall' and 'froggoween' so I just went for both, thank you for voting everyone! Early Backer freebie sticker is Floris hugging a pumpkin! Returning Backer freebie sticker is Floris as a scarecrow!
Floris as a Tanuki, this will be a phone charm cross-collab freebie
Cross-collab freebie phone charm And last up is a cross-collab freebieyou can get if you backFall Times with Floris but also Natasja's Yokai Ghost Parade! Not a sticker nor an enamel pin but a little phone charm of around 38mm/1.5 inch with a simple phone strap on it. Perfect to hang on your phone, or zippers of a bag or anything other fun. From me you will receive Floris as a Tanuki to fit the Froggoween and Yokai theme. From Natasja you'll get a Kappa! Reminder that you need to back both of us to receive these two extra phone charms.
Hope you all like the designs of the freebies, the types of freebies, the enamel pins as well and the project in it's entirety! Floris the Frog is a soft spot for me and a passion project, I hope you like him just as much as I do.
Feel free to share the project with your friends to share the frog love 💚 Hope we can unlock all the goals and maybe get some spooky ghosty Floris stretch goals too!
