We're nearly at $7,500 so I thought I would show you all what the Kickstarter Mermaid looks like! The image on the left is the sticker and illustration design, the image on the right is the pin design. This mermaid pin and sticker are FREE for all backers! The pin is a Kickstarter exclusive, meaning it will not be going into my shop. She will be 1.5 inches tall, hard enamel and gold plated like the other mermaids.
Everyone who orders 5 or more pins will receive a 5in x 5in art print of all their pins, including this one!
I hope you all like the design, and are looking forward to getting her!
Side Note: In the last update I said both pin boards were cork, but only the 18 inch board is made of cork. The 13 inch board is made of thick foam with a wood backing. Both options will be beautiful additions to your collection though!

Custom Designed Cork Boards and Freebies!

There are two BIG updates I want to give today! The first is showing off the final designs for the cork boards! The second is an update on some freebies and when those will unlock for everyone!
So first, we finally have the two board designs to show off! One will be just over 13 inches in diameter, the other will be a whopping 18 inches in diameter. (Spoiler: that's a huge board!). you can see the two designs side by side below, and as individual images below that for a closer look!
These are custom designed, engraved cork boards, and are priced as such. The 13 inch board will cost $60 USD ($45 + $15 shipping & Handling), and the 18 inch board will cost $80 USD ($65 + $15 shipping & Handling). If you want one you can increase your pledge by these amounts, and in the survey that gets sent out at the end of the Kickstarter I will ask to make sure you get the one you want!
Both boards are being made by small Etsy shops I have paired with to make these designs a reality! The 13 inch board (the design on the left of the first image) is being made by WhatsYourInnerGeek. The 18 inch board (the design on the right of the first image) is being made by UniqueCorkBoards. I have linked their Etsy shops in their names if you want to go and check out their work!
To increase your pledge you can go to Manage Pledge > Update Pledge > Bonus Support > Confirm. If you have any questions please let me know either through a message, or in the comments!
Now about the freebies! I am designing an additional mermaid exclusive to Kickstarter! The sticker version will come in every package, but the Pin version will unlock for everyone at $7,500! That means everyone who pledges will also get a FREE 1.5 inch Kickstarter EXCLUSIVE mermaid pin! This pin will not be sold in my shop afterword, so this will be the only place to get her. Keep an eye out for her design once we reach that stretch goal!

Who would have thought we would reach the goal of all 12 pins being unlocked within a week, and yet here we are only 4 days in! Thank you all so much for your interest and support!
I have gone ahead and added 10 more slots to the early bird - 12 pin pack, as a thank you to everyone! Keep an eye out for my next update where I will be showing off the two pin board variants that will be available. they are being finalized and I can't wait to show you all, and hope you will be as excited about them as I am!
Second Stretch Goal Unlocked!

Great news!
We have now unlocked 9 of the 12 pins! That means Gemini, Libra and Cancer have now been unlocked! Thank you all so much for your continued support, and I can't wait to show you all what else I have been working on.
As promised though, here is the current design for the custom cork board that I am getting made! (the design, size, and price are still being finalized, but this is an early look to get everyone excited!). The white portions will be engraved into a round cork board with the idea being that this will be available after all 12 pins have been unlocked as an add on. The idea was that with this board, each of the zodiac mermaids can go into their respective sections. I really hope you all like it as much as I do!
