Hello! My name is Jiayi, and I’m an illustrator from Canada! Welcome to my 3rd kickstarter, we’ll be focusing on Greek astrology this time around!
I plan to make pins featuring each of the signs from the Greek zodiac! I’ve already gotten some samples for a few designs done, and my manufacturer did a great job:
The colour palette is a stark silver with deep, rich blue glitter! Reminiscent of astrology and ancient times.
Here’s all twelve designs I have planned:
The designs vary from 4-5cm in length at their widest. These will be hard enamel pins with glitter in the blue areas.
In addition, I’ve designed custom backing cards for this project which I’ve also done a test print run of! They’re printed by Moo, on their luxurious silk stock with a gorgeous silver foil. The cards feel like velvet!
As an small time artist, I can’t fund the manufacturing of 12 designs all by myself so this is where my backers come in. I hope you can help me make these pins a reality!
EDIT [11/19]– to add an extra pin to your pledge (for the 8 pin tier and above) just add an extra $10/pin! to add extra stickers for any existing tier, add $5/sticker.
The initial funding is for the white + blue glitter set of pins shown above. If we hit more than this, we can unlock the following stretch goals!
These are holographic, glittery, diecut stickers of the zodiac designs. These stickers are printed with Stickerapp, and are waterproof and weatherproof. If unlocked, these be will included with rewards according to the tier!
At $6000, I’ll be able to produce options of the original designs in full colour in a gold colour plated metal!
Even if you can’t back this project, you can help spread the word! I’ll be hosting giveaways on my social media pages for the duration of the campaign. You can get the links to them below:

This is my 3rd kickstarter, and I’m confident I will deliver the rewards on time and to expectations. Should anything happen, backers will be updated in a timely manner. I’ve worked with all my suppliers before (for the pins, backing cards, and holographic stickers), and I trust in their capabilities.
(Please note, colours on a digital screen may not represent the pantone colour range in enamel, the finished products may look slightly different in person due to this and manufacturing limitations.)
