I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who participated in the WildnCrafty followers poll! It was great fun to check in each day to see the votes coming in - I was on the edge of my seat until the very end! We had a whopping 85 votes in total, and the final results are shown below.

I am happy to share that we are 56% funded, with 51 backers and 30 days left! 🎊 We're over half of the way there, with half of the funding time to go. Thank you to everyone who is showing your support by backing, sharing and joining in with community activities!

I'll be detailing more about the plush designs you'll be able to vote on, when we hit our $8,000 funding goal achievement! Before polling begins, I'll be sharing design sheets, palette choices, included accessories, each character's personality and more.

Some Companions enjoy watching movies, storytelling, writing or herbology. Companions are there to remind you of your uniqueness, and celebrate it! 🎊 They're there to enjoy your favorite activities, while encouraging new ideas.

I'll start: While I enjoy drawing and daydreaming, I think my favorite thing to do is watch movies. There's a film for every feeling, and I find that movies give me a real creative reset! My favorite film ( if I had to pick one ) would be Watership Down ( 1978 ). The theme of persevering through the doubts of others and the unknown, to know and have peace at the end of your journey, has always evoked hope in me at the hardest of times. I also admire the defined personalities of each character, and how they all come to know each other's strengths and weaknesses to become one indestructible unit. I think the book is great too, of course. I also enjoy all of the episodic versions! In my opinion, all media versions have added something unique to the overall visualization of the work.
