Thank you so much to everyone that has helped us reach funding goal, and not only that but we are also on our way to our first stretch goal too! :)

I should hopefully have the accessory bags this week, they shipped out last week but I did not receive tracking, so I'm not 100% sure when they'll arrive---but when they do you can expect some cute photos! :D

I hope you all had a great holiday weekend! :D

Friendly Familiars Kickstarter Launches Sept 1st!!

Hello everyone!

I have a fun and exciting journey beginning this weekend on Saturday to fund printing a field guide full of mythological and fantasy creatures! This book entwines with Banjo and Luna the Unicorgi® 's world and brings depth to their realm!

Duh duh duh dahhhh!

This art book is filled with 40 pages of cute and whimsical art that I have been working on the over the past 5 months. The Kickstarter will have along with the book an exclusive enamel pin to the project, adorable puppy dragon accessory bags, prints and the long awaited lanyards! For those that have been waiting patiently for commissions, I will finally have a few slots open on the project as well :)

I am very proud of this book and can't wait to share it with you all! To get a glimpse of some of the content inside this book, feel free to browse my instagram account @squidbrains, though a lot of the content in book will be kept secret until printing! :)

Thank you very much for joining me in this journey and for your continued support! I am so thankful to all of my backers <3

For those with shy dogs and know the struggle, I made an enamel pin you can attach to your dog’s leash/bandana/harness. Grab them in my etsy shop along with the “Needs Space” and “Blind” pins! 

These pins when seen help alert that your dog needs space or has special needs.

Hey everyone! I just wanted to update that if you see my Momo Monday design sold on any item (cups, socks, shirts, earrings, rings, enamel pins) outside of my Etsy store, it is 100% stolen. The only item I sell this as is the hard enamel pin shown in the photo here. It will always have "squidbrains" stamped on the back of the pin too. I'm get anxiety attacks because every week I'm having to report this item to be removed from multiple sites, and it's really mentally exhausting. Currently I have a lawsuit open because this was sold on shirts all around the US in a massive chain store. By supporting sites with stolen merch you are taking money away from the artist that created the item and their time. It's super hurtful seeing this design across so many websites, being sold in multiple countries (Australia, Europe, China, Canada and the US). 

Please buy the original pin from my etsy shop here! www.etsy.com/shop/Squidbrains

I'm going to retire this design after it sells out, as it's kind of exhausting to keep up with it and my artwork is in competition with itself across 100s of sites now as knock offs.. (copyrights are registered on this pin)

Look! It's a rare sighting of a floofle of corgsheep! Now the herder has been herded? xD Here is the Aries design from Banjo's Zodiac enamel pin series :)
