Hey everyone,

I get everyone is likely getting a lot of emails from me, but I am super excited, we are close to the $4000 stretch goal for the time-limited free "Glimmery" pin!
There's still a chance we can make it, your pledge will help us create this additional freebie for everyone!

And the poll is out! 

The $900 Brid of Australia is....a tie??
It's a tie between the Australian Albatross and the "SHUT" Australian Silvergull!
While I unfortunately can't make them both as a pin, I will open a new poll so one will be made into a keychain, and one will be made into a pin!

The $2000 Brid of Australia is a TIE AGAIN!
Again, I will make a new poll and one will be a pin while one will be a keychain! Please check out the second poll not attached to this email

And then, Pidove!
The vote was super close, but regular Pidove wins out as the pin colour!
But fret not, I have keychains made where it is not only double sided, the shiny side has a shiny holo effect that is visible under the sun! This will be available as an add-on and a choice for keychains after the campaign ends.
More colours coming soon like wompoo into the voting round once stretch goals are updated! 

Second Wind! 48 HOURS LEFT for a free pin! Community Engagement Awards

Hello everyone,

Doodle here, I can see everyone putting a lot of love into this project and while it didn't quite hit the stretch goal needed for the time-limited free "Glimmery" pin event, I want to recognize all the love and support I've seen go towards this goal. With this, I am making two changes that will make it easier for you to reach this, and a notable mention to a specific feeebie!
  1. The 10000 engagement points required for a free washi tape has been reduced to 5000, as I realise that 10000 is a really daunting number. I am learning how points accumulate and want to make this achievement fair to everyone.
  2. The limited run "glimmery" pins was originally set for 48 hours, with one of these options becoming a free reward for backers if a stretch goal of $4000 is achieved. I saw a huge amount of effort placed into this goal and want to make it possible for a re-run as I would absolutely love to see (especially the pidove lmao) come to life! The new end date for reaching the $4000 goal is now 27th January 10 pm PT time, I would love to be able to make this free design for everyone if this is achieved and make more amazing things with everyone!

More news to come on the polls, be there soon!
Remember to vote on the next Brid of Australia, there's a 4 way tie on the first one and as much as I would absolutely love to make them all we have to prioritize until enough stretch goals are met. 

Incentive gift pins! Let's make the next 24 hours amazing

Hello everyone,

Thank you so much for such an amazing launch day! With so much support, I want to keep this pledge train going with a time-limited freebie!
If we can reach our goal of $4000 within 24 hours (until 10 am, 24th January PT) a voting poll will open with one of these limited edition pins being available as a freebie for each backer!  

If you pledge both Brids of Australia and my collab partner Little Birds, Big Hearts by FleaCircusDesigns you get a free pin and polaroid sticker from each of us!

Another Brid and Pidove pin unlocked!

A massive thank you for everyone who backed so far!
We hit this unlock within 11 hours!
To make this tier as affordable as possible, each color variant will be selected via a poll that will open shortly :) this will ensure there will be enough of a popular colour that everyone can select!

Another Brid has also been unlocked! Another Poll will open with the option of a new brid or a colour variant!

We are so close to unlocking the UV reactive pin, Praise the Sun as well! I am so grateful for all the love and can't wait to keep creating!

For those who haven't pledged yet, a free postcard of your choice is available until 1 PM EDT, 23rd January. There is so much we can make, and I have so much planned for this project. I hope more of you join us before our early birdwatching ends!
And don't forget if we hit 10,000 Engagement Points, all backers get a free roll of washi tape with their order, which you can find here!

If anyone has suggestions for Pidove colours, you are welcome to share ideas :)
