That’s a wrap on Just Say No and Pintopia 2024 and we can’t even begin to express how grateful we are for all of your support! 

We smashed through all of our original stretch goals in the first few days of the campaign, you helped shape the collection by voting on new designs and products, and in the end we unlocked EVERYTHING! If you didn't get a chance to add on the dragon design while we were live, rest assured it will be available in the survey.

We anticipate sending out the Backer Surveys in the next couple of weeks, so keep an eye on your inbox for those. The survey will be your opportunity to choose your pin colors, free stickers, and add on any extra goodies you might have missed or have decided you can’t live without.

We’re also going to be finalizing all of the pin, keychain, and sticker artwork to send to our manufacturers and get production started as soon as possible! And as with previous campaigns, we’ll continue to communicate our production and fulfillment timeline as things move forward with the manufacturers, so you’ll always know where things are in the process. 

That’s it for now, thank you again for backing Just Say No, and we can’t wait to get these pins into your hands! Get ready to tell the world: NO.

As we swing into the final few hours of Just Say No and Pintopia 2024, I wanted to reach out with a heartfelt thank you to absolutely everyone who has supported us through this campaign, whether you've backed the project financially or just been here to cheer us on in spirit and love.

It means so much to me as an artist to get to work on creative projects like this with my friends, so we can make cool stuff to share with all of our other friends (that's you).

We're getting so close to unlocking the final pin, our medieval dragon breathing a fiery "Absolutely Not". It's less than $400 away from unlocking, so now's a great time to share the campaign! Repost to save a life!

Also, if you haven't checked in recently to see the newest pins, free stickers, the winning keychain designs, and ALL the stuff that comes with the All-In Tiers, check it out here: Click ME!

And our cross collab partner, Mark Monlux with Killer Klowns from Outer Space has fully funded so now every backer who backs both projects gets two FREE pins, one from each of us!

That's it, see you at the finish line!

Our $18K stretch goal has been reached and we now have three acrylic charm options for you in the add-ons: the Never Raven, The More You No Jackalope, and the Fuck No Marquee. I personally can't wait to put these on all of my purse & backpack zipper pulls, so THANK YOU for helping us unlock them!

We're now 4 days out from the close of this campaign and moving right along toward our final stretch goal. At $21K, we'll unlock the "Absolutely Not" Dragon pin. Once it's unlocked, it will be available to add on to your pledge (or in the survey after the campaign ends)—and for those of you who pledged at any of the "One of Every Design" or "Absolutely Everything" levels, it will automatically be included. 

One thing to keep an eye on is our Pintopia partner Mark Monlux's Killer Klowns from Outer Space project: his campaign is currently 75% funded! When he hits his funding goal, backers who pledged for both campaigns will receive 2 free pins. Please join is in supporting Mark's campaign and rooting him on toward the finish line! We would LOVE to send out some free pins.

We have one last poll just for fun (we know y'all love polls)! If we have a followup Just Say No campaign in the future, what would you like to see? Feel free to share your favorite way to say no to help inspire us.

The people have spoken and our $21K stretch goal will involve a charming—yet obstinate—dragon! I'm pretty pleased with this result—one of my favorite books of last year was a novella entitled Travel Light, in which a little girl was raised by dragons and dreamed of one day having her own hoard to protect. Maybe we can learn a thing or two from dragons about protecting our resources!

Without further ado...we have a dragon design for you!



Also, as promised, we have a new poll so you can help us choose which designs will be featured as acrylic charms when we hit $18K in funding. We'll pick the top 3 to include as add-ons. Let us know which designs you'd love to see most.

And finally, with just 10 days left of Pintopia, please pay a visit to our partner project Killer Klowns from Outer Space. If both projects reach the funding goal and you back both, you'll get 2 free pins!
We also recommend hopping over to check out these projects that could use some support (shares, comments, and/or pledges) to get fully funded before April 18th!

We've reached 300 backers and counting! It is so cool to have so many folks helping us bring this nifty idea to fruition. We are still so thankful for your support (we hope you aren't sick of us saying so)!

The Acrylic Charm vs Patches poll is now closed and we have a clear winner. Acrylic charms won by a sizable margin, although it was pretty close for a while there. Once we reach $18,000 in funding, we'll add another poll so y'all can help us decide which designs should also be offered as acrylic charms. 

While we wait for word to spread further about our crusade to Just Say No, we have some additional ideas that we are hoping make it into this campaign. Our $21,000 stretch goal will add another (final?) pin design to the collection, most likely with the phrase "Absolutely Not." But we need YOU to weigh in and tell us which creature deserves a place alongside our other cheeky animal friends. Please vote—and feel free to lobby in the comments for your personal favorite!
