Current Goings On

Man, it’s been a while since I updated here! The best ways to keep up with me are definitely my Facebook page or my Instagram. I’ll try to start updating here more, especially since I have some exciting things going on!

ENAMEL PINS ARE COMING! Yep, you read that right. I’m having enamel pins produced! They’re expected to be here around the middle of August, and I just got work yesterday that the mold for them has been made, so they’re officially in production! They will be hard enamel, 1.5″ wide, and have a rubber clutch. Preorders are up in my Etsy! Right now I only have one style — a cute health potion, but I am planning to do a mana potion to match it, as well as a few other pins on a TTRPG theme. I’m still hashing out ideas, and very much look forward to sharing them once I have something more than a rough sketch.

A WEB STORE IS COMING! I’m currently looking into ecommerce solutions to add a shop directly to the website. I think I have what I’m going to use — but I need to read into it a little bit more before I commit to it and find out exactly how it works. This will allow you to hit a button right here on the website and check out, with a third party handling the actual shop side so it will be nice and secure!

A SECRET PROJECT! I have a secret project that is currently in the prototyping phase. I am expecting to receive the prototype in the middle of August, which will be great timing with my pins! I’ll be sharing more pictures and details then, but I will say that a Kickstarter will be following! I am currently looking into all of the details of doing a Kickstarter, using Backerkit, etc. If anyone has any experience, and can offer guidance, please do!

Everyone cross your fingers for me that things arrive on time, and are good quality!

Having things actually MADE by a manufacturer with my art is kind of surreal. Impostor syndrome is also super high. XD But I’m happy to take the leap, and excited to see where it goes!
