Hello everyone! I decided to make a few changes to stretch goals, as well as add on a pledge tier for add-ons only for those who want to support the campaign but don’t necessarily want the star pins (or planets, if we reach those goals). Please note that you must pledge for at least $10 of items (same cost as lowest pledge tier) to qualify for freebies.
I also decided that I wanted to squeeze in several of the flags from the polls pre-launch as stars before the planets goals, rather than afterward, so that those options would be available for everyone interested.

Due to these changes, and it happening/being announced past the early bird deadline, I am allowing anyone who pledges until 7 PM EST (4 PM PST) to qualify for the early bird sticker. This is something I will need to manually enact on my end, so if it doesn’t show up, don’t panic - it will be added to your order by the time things ship!

So, a new stretch goal #2 is posted below, and goals #3 and now #4 will have slightly updated funding amounts! We are close to the second stretch goal being unlocked - just under $400 away. Once that goal is reached, the “oops, all planets!” pledge tier will become available.

For those who may have pledged to the all-in or oops, all stars tiers, you will be able to choose which specific colors you would like (since this adds 35 new colors to choose from!); there will also be an add-on item specific to those pledge tiers that adds all additional 35 colors of stars to your pledge at a discount. Once the additional colors of planets are available, that planets-only option will become available as well.

I also have a sticker design I put together below - this was originally going to be a pin design for stretch goals much later on if the project funded more than I had originally planned it to fund, but I am enjoying the design enough that as wanted to offer it to you all in this campaign anyway. Some minor changes may be made to the design as I adapted this sticker pretty quick this morning from the original pin design (details that can show up in & translate well to print often don’t in pins, so simplification is needed).

These planets will be 3” wide, and will be available in as many flag colors as I can manage!

When I do a part 2 to this theme, likely next year (either for the March pride project, or another in a June), these planets will definitely also be a part of the campaign - I wanted this one to be a bit smaller & simpler than previous projects to wrap up the year, and working with my manu on something with so many different colors to fill in would likely end up a nightmare, I’m sure 😅.

You will be able to request the specific flag or flags you’d like in the post-campaign survey & I will be working on art for a bunch of flags between now & when surveys go out so you have a visual of what flag you’re choosing will look like!

Thank you for all of your support on this project - it is definitely very different from my usual collections, so I am super stoked that it’s something folks are interested in!!

I likely won't be making any updates until closer to the end of the early bird in 48 hours, but as pins are unlocked I will make additional pledge levels available. 

I'll be keeping an eye on things for any questions y'all might have so comment away 💖 🏳️‍🌈🌈

Hello folks! Final update prior to launch tomorrow - below you will see some images of the freebie items, as well as the final late stretch goal poll. 

While we may not be able to fund all the flags I want to, I am not opposed to running a part 2 next year if there is enough interest :) 

I am so excited for this project, and I hope that you all like my vision for it just as much once the full project is revealed tomorrow!

Short update to bring attention to the next poll - some new flags alongside some from the previous poll that didnt do as well to even things out. 

The next update will be the freebie reveal & final poll, just to give me an idea what potential colors can be in later stretch goals if we way exceed expectations 💖

Hello folks! We launch soooo soon - I am very excited to be launching my very first solo campaign (can you believe I've been making pins for over 2 years and have ONLY participated in group events up until now?) and such a fun and customizable little pin collection. 

This will be my final campaign until next May when I launch my Yarnie Ita Bag campaign, but this will be my FIRST campaign with my new business name - HoloCat! I will be making the change officially as of my convention at the end of this month, but figured now was as good a time as any to start the move. 

To gear up for launch, I've attached a poll to this update for you all to vote on - it is a list of flags that are NOT currently planned in stretch goals of the campaign. Depending on how funded the campaign gets, additional flag options will become available, and I want to have the number of colors in mind before I go ahead and plan additional stretches. 

The list of currently planned for flags, for your reference, is:

For a total of 14 flags available in two different shapes. 

If you don't see a flag you'd like to see in the poll, please comment here or on the poll, and I will add it to a second round of voting!

This update is going out to my entire audience, and one additional update will be going out this weekend to reveal the freebie incentives that will be available to folks who are early bird backers, return backers, or those who pledge to 5 or more pins. Any other updates will be going out to followers of the project only (and then backers & followers) until the project ends!
