PLEASE NOTE: if you already backed the project, do not use the preorder store to add more items to your pledge. This will result in you being charged twice for shipping as orders do not combine automatically-- surveys for backers will be going out around November 15th!
Circus Sweeties are 18'' plushies all inspired by frosted circus cookies. There will be a lineup of many different animals, starting with a cat and a rabbit, and followed by a lion, elephant, and giraffe-- and perhaps, much much more!
While not all of these characters will be brought to fruition with this campaign, don't worry! Your love for the Circus Sweeties has proven that there is plenty of demand and a Part 2 is a very real possibility in the near future.
When we hit $4,000 in pledges, not only do we unlock Catsie Cupcake and Bella Biscuit, but we unlock several other fun goodies as well!
Coloring pages will be digital only, but can be printed out and colored traditionally!
If we meet our initial goal, there are several more Circus Sweetie characters in various states of completion just waiting to join the circus. Backers Choice goals will also include a poll that determines who or what we unlock next, so be sure to check out the community tab and cast your vote!
Feel free to customize your pledge by browsing the add-on section! Here you'll find all Circus Sweetie goodies available to purchase one by one, so you can adjust your order as new items are revealed while still taking advantage of the various pledge level discounts.
For add-ons with more than one design to choose from (plushies, keychains, and pins), you'll make your final selection post-campaign during the survey.
Please be aware that outside of the campaign beginning and end, these dates are tentative and subject to change. Holidays, manufacturing delays, shipping disruptions and so on have the potential to set us back days or even weeks, but all timeline changes will be communicated asap via the community tab!
*****Very important: The Catsie Cupcake Plushie that you see on this page is not the finished version. Likewise, most designs are subject to change throughout the prototyping phase. If you are new to these kind of campaigns, please understand that not everyone can be happy with every decision made.
Some things MUST happen the way they do because there is no other way. If you are someone who is very particular, I recommend keeping up with updates, and waiting until the finalized versions are confirmed before making any decisions.
I appreciate all of the support, patience, and understanding as we move forward with designs and merchandise!
Hello! My name is Charmsey and I have been in the commission business for a decade, but I have always enjoyed designing characters, and stuffed animals. I guess it was only a matter of time until I ventured into the business of designing stuffed animals!
I've had a couple other campaigns, one of which was funded and fulfilled, but Circus Sweeties is by far my most ambitious idea to date. I am so happy to be able to share it with everyone, and see the support and feedback I have received so far. When you support this project, you're supporting a creator who might be a little overworked and tired from commissions, and whose biggest goal in life is to provide for her family.
I am a mother of one, and she means the world to me. She has also been a huge support, and has provided a lot of feedback and been great for bouncing ideas off of! I hope that this campaign is successful and puts me one step closer towards providing security for her.
