you guys had some amazing suggestions for more merch items youd like to see in the campaign! so, heres what ive got for ya'll!



first off, you guys REALLY liked the idea of postcards! so, if we can hit $7k, each pin will automatically come with a matching 4x6in postcard, with additional cards and/or a full set being available as an add-on purchase as well :)

here's some closeups of the laika & felicette postcards! 

next up, we have...



a large hanging wall pin banner! I'm unsure of the exact dimensions yet, but I'd like for it to be pretty big! if we can reach $7500, these will become available as a new add-on :)

here's a better look at the banner!

ALSO, mini pin packs finally got added to the add-on store! you can add them to your pledge whenever you like (if you want to) :)



lastly, our poll for the fifth unlocked pin ends TOMORROW at 10am PST! marfusha is currently in the lead, but not by much -- head over and vote if you haven't already!

it was a very tight race in the end, but our winners for the fourth unlocked pin spot are...



anita & arabella the spiders!

so, just to recap, our current available designs alongside our spiders are...



felicette & laika...



& the adorable trio of mice, sally, amy, & moe!

it's time to vote for our fifth round design! check out the poll below to pick your favorite -- votes close friday at 10am PST!

additionally, I plan to have more add-ons and stretch goals added soon, with some new items that you guys have been VERY interested: a pin banner & a postcard set!  ill try to have those done in the next few days :>

we're almost one full week into the campaign -- thank you all for the amazing support so far! 🌠

hey everyone! it's a little crazy, but we recently passed 6.5k in funds which means we're getting REAL close to 7k... which is crazy!!!

i was thinking of adding a new unlockable add on if we reach 7k... how do you guys feel about a pin banner maybe? or would you prefer another unlockable pin?

speaking of unlockable pins! our poll for which pin to unlock next ends TOMORROW at 10am PST! anita & arabella are currently in the lead, but not by much!

be sure to vote before tomorrow if you want to see a specific design unlocked! 🥰 thank you so much for all the support!

in just a little over 24 hours, we've completely unlocked all 8 stretch goals i had planned for the project! which is just so, SO cool -- I'm so grateful for each and every one of you who have supported the project. I've never had all my stretch goals unlocked this fast before!

some of you may be wondering if ill add more goals now that we've surpassed what i expected only two days in, and the answer is: MAYBE!! i definitely have more than 6 pins designs, so unlocking even more of those would be great, but I do want to maybe wait for a week or so to see if we're still trending up in pledges before committing to more pins!

for our unlocking poll: sally, amy, & moe seem to be the clear winners, so I feel safe in saying that they've won our first unlock spot! ill have a new poll up in a bit to pick our second unlock spot :)

(oh, and while im still debating if I want to add more pins, I DO have one more thing id like to add as a stretch goal that I think people will really like :) )

that's all for now! tysm everyone 🌠

WOW!! it's still only the first day and we've already unlocked more than half of our stretch goals -- that's CRAZY!! thank you all so, so much. im so glad that my little guys have connected with ya'll in some way!

this means we now have 3 unlocked pin spots to choose from! just as a refresher, here are the first three designs we're currently voting on to fill the first spot:



of these three designs, the current leader is sally, amy, and moe, the three black mice! with belka & strelka close behind, followed by miss baker.

i wanted to be sure to give you guys plenty of options for unlockable pins, so for our second unlocked pin slot, id like to introduce three new options!



on the left we have ham the chimpanzee (1961), the first ape in space! next we have arabella & anita (1973), the first spiders in space (and the first to spin webs in space!). last but not least -- the rabbit marfusha and her canine companions otvazhnaya & snezhinka (1959)!

which of these three new designs do you like best? 🌠
