What comes next is that we wait for the payments to process and for us to get the money (this takes around two weeks)
Whilst that is happening, I will be setting up the survey and pre-orders store, which I will aim to have out once all the payments are processed.

During the survey, you will be able to select which pins you want and whether you want any extra goodies from our other campaigns! Shipping and any extras added will not be charged until we are getting ready to ship.

We didn't hit the £2k goal, but please consider the turban gourd and four-leaf clover as unlocked anyway, and they will be available for you to pick during the survey phase!

In regard to the donation for the Alzheimers Society, the total will be worked out, and the donation will be sent after the payments have come through fully! We will post an update with proof of the donation when it gets to that point. 

We will do a second smaller donation if anyone chooses to buy the pin during the survey/pre-order store, once that's all payed durring the shipping phase. 


 




only 3 days left!

Only 3 days left to back! 

The first and second goals are unlocked! We are close to the third, and even if we don't quite hit that goal, you can consider it unlocked anyway, as we will cover the remaining funds ourselves.

Assuming we unlock the third goal naturally, the fourth unlocks at £2,400, and if we hit like £2,200 I can probably swing the last of it as well and unlock it early. 

Hope that makes sense, but I want us to unlock as many extra bits as we can!


Also, don't forget to take a look at our collab partner! -they have pre-unlocked all their designs so theres a wide range to pick from! 



🎉 FUNDED!!!

We have hit the base goal, and well on our way to unlocking the next couple of pins! 

I see a lot of you have ordered the forget-me-not, which naturally makes me very happy to see your support for the charity and love of the design!

For those who haven't backed yet -there's still 19/20 hours or so to get the early bird stickers! 

Thank you very much for your support!

Firstly, I want to know which 1 inch pin would you like us to unlock in the first goal alongside the forget-me-not and the Maple leaf (half-inch) pin. 

Your options are: 

Turban Gourd!  


Goblin pumpkin!

or oak leaf! (English oak) 
Please pick your choice in the poll below!

Secondly, our cross collab this time is with Cosmic Nightfell and their 'Pushing up daisies' project! 


Back both this project and their project, and you'll get two special stickers -one from each! 


Thats it for now! now long now until the event starts! (6th!) 

Charity forget-me-not pin explained! (and freebies)
about 1 month ago – Tue, Jul 28, 2026 at 09:51:43 AM

Hello! sorry for the lack of updates in this upcoming project so far!

I have been busy working hard on the previous few projects and have had a few technical issues resulting in delays for designs and things for this upcoming project.

The forget-me-not pin will be 1 inch tall with black nickel metal and screenprint.  It will be its own separate pledge at £10, and £4 of each sale will be going to https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/

I picked this charity above others in honour of my grandmother, who has late-stage dementia. She is immobile, non-verbal and requires 24/7 care (provided by my mother, brother and daily carers); needless to say, this disease has affected us greatly. No one deserves this condition, and alzheimers.org is dedicated to helping people and family members affected by Alzheimers within the UK, alongside helping with research and cures.     

In the next couple of days, I will post another update with full details on the cross-collab!

Returning backers will get free stickers of all the designs, and early backers will get a sticker sheet with exclusive/limited designs!

also spend £20+ and get a tiny gold ''leaf' pin! -It will be solid metal, flat with raised outside/veins -the design might be simplified -I'm currently waiting on a reply from my manufacturer to decide if the design is too complicated for the (half-inch) size I want! (if it is, there will be fewer 'veins', essentially)
