History of Floral Fads

Hello everyone 👋🏼 The time has come to make your pin selections! A few months ago I did a poll on other flowers you'd like to see as pins. It was a near 4-way tie so I just designed all 4 pins and will make them available as add-ons! All are 1.25" hard enamel with gold plating. Here's a sneak peek:

In the next few days you will receive an email with a special link to your BackerKit survey. It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since I need this information to fulfill your rewards. I'm setting the deadline to complete your survey to WEDNESDAY, APRIL 26.

When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide shipping information, and purchase any add-on items that look good! You don’t have access to this survey link just yet, but it will be available soon via email 💌 After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time before I close the surveys and get my final counts.

Everyone else who DID NOT support History of Floral Fads during the live campaign, it's not too late, you can order some floral pins via my History of Floral Fads pre-order store.

A big thank-you again to all my backers! I'm thrilled to be moving into the next phase of my first crowdfunding project!

Thank you for supporting History of Floral Fads which was 1 of 20 projects participating in Pintopia 2023. Thanks to your support 100% of the projects were fully funded!

There are a few next steps I wanted to share:

Again, I sincerely thank for your support and stay tuned for more information soon.

I'd like to start by saying another thank you to all who have backed! Very appreciative of all your support. Since I had so much fun creating my first set of 3 floral pins, I want to design more! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the next flower pin I should design. I'll check voting on Sunday evening (2/5) to see which two flowers earned the top spots.

I also wanted to share the free pin you will earn when you support 3+ Pintopia projects — it's called the "Pipe Weed Moth" pin and it's inspired by the moth featured in The Lord of the Rings films accompanied by a wreath of Gandalf's favorite herb.

Pipe Weed Moth a collaboration between my husband Jason Furie and I who is also running a Pintopia project of his own called Movie Moths. Check it out and support if you love moths, movies, or know anyone who does (of course you do!).

Funded in under 2 hours 🤯…!!! I am beyond excited, and incredibly grateful to all who have backed me so far. This is my first crowdfunding campaign, and I never expected such an outpouring of support. So truly and sincerely, thank you! I feel like my eight year old self in this picture, winning my first award ever, and for a drawing. 

And things are just beginning! Don’t forget, if you back multiple projects you get exclusive free collaboration pins. So continue supporting more of these fantastic designs!
