New art WIPs & poll results
17 days ago – Thu, May 28, 2026 at 05:00:47 PM

Hey witchy friends!

It's been a while since you heard from me. I've been very busy the last couple weeks trying to balance running this campaign with shipping orders for my previous campaign The Dark Wood. But now that I'm done with shipping that campaign, I can re-focus on this one!

🪄Poll Results

First off, we have results for the $30k poll, and the winner was zipper pull charm! Honestly I was kind of surprised that this was the winner, I was not expecting it, but I'm excited to try something new!

Since I'm fairly sure we're going to reach that in the last few days of the campaign (we're so close!!), I went ahead and did a sketch for it!



After doing some digging about these, I have decided the best way to design it is to have a small crab claw attachment at the top for easy attachment and removal.

This zipper pull charm will be included in the Full Moon bundle, and will be available as an add-on for everyone else. I'm not sure yet how much I'm going to charge for it, as I have not yet gotten a quote for it from my manufacturer. However, my plan is to use the same manufacturer that I use for my pins, so it should be in-line cost-wise with the other pin designs, so it'll be somewhere between $15-$20.

Since I don't have this information yet, I likely will not be adding it as an add-on until the survey stage.

🪄6x9 Foil Print

I've also done a sketch for the 6x9 foil print. I loved the design I made for the luna moth, so I decided to have him featured in the print for this campaign. I really like him, he's just so cute! This is the rough sketch I have planned for it:



The corners/border, moon, wing veins, moon spots, stars, and other bits will be done with gold foil :) I'm excited to see how this print turns out, I think it's going to be really pretty!

🪄Additional Wristlets

Last but not least, I've finally finished up the mock-ups for the additional wristlet designs that were unlocked!

As a reminder, the 6x9 print & remaining wristlet designs are now available as add-ons so you can add them to your order now, if you wish!

That's all for this update. We are in the final stretch of the campaign - only 5 days remain! I'm thrilled with how this has gone and I'm so excited to make this bag for you guys!

Cheers,
Rain

P.S. - In today's update for Celestial Incarnations, I mentioned rising shipping costs would apply to this campaign, however after checking what I put on this campaign's page, I see they are fine - for now, they will not change from what is displayed on the campaign page, however if rates continue to rise, I may need to raise shipping prices.

New add-ons + poll
27 days ago – Mon, May 18, 2026 at 11:23:33 AM

Hey witchy friends!

Wow, what an amazing first week of the campaign! With this being a new item, I had somewhat low expectations for it and didn't expect us to reach all the stretch goals within the first few days. 

  • Bonus guest artist pay has been unlocked! The guest artists were already getting paid, but now they'll get paid EVEN MORE!
  • 5 additional wristlets have been unlocked! I haven't done the artwork for them, but I'll try to get to that this week! They'll match the remaining printed inserts that don't have matching wristlets.

🪄New add-ons

Since the new wristlets and foil print are unlocked, I went ahead and added 2 new add-ons. You can now add these to your order at anytime during the campaign or on the survey after the campaign.

  • 6x9 foil print add-on
  • Wristlet set (8)

The additional 5 wristlets and foil print will be included in the Full Moon bundles at no additional cost. 

🪄$25k - 6x9 foil print (Unlocked already!)

First off, I've decided to have 1 new "stretch goal" that's already been unlocked at the $25k mark since that's where I probably would have put it anyway, and it's for a new 6x9 foil print! I haven't sketched anything for it yet, but since there was interest in it, I decided I will do it!

Most likely, I will be doing a print of the luna moth boy character that I made for the pin :) It'll have shiny foil details on it as well.

This print will be included in the Full Moon bundles at no additional cost.

🪄$30k - Backer Vote!

Besides the 6x9 foil print, I've been doing some thinking this week on what more I could add, and I decided it would be best to leave it up to you guys with a poll!

The ideas I've had are:
  • Custom zipper pull charm (suggested by a backer!)
  • Foldable reusable shopping bag 
  • Canvas tote bag with screen printed design
  • Lens/glasses cleaning cloth 
  • Custom carabiner 
  • New custom printed insert + matching pin

The shopping bag, canvas tote bag, and glasses cleaning cloth would likely have a design on it that matches one of the inserts - probably the moon phases one since that's the main aesthetic of the bag itself. :)

For the new printed insert + matching pin, I had the idea before launch to do another one that was a monstera plant pattern with a matching plant-themed pin, so if that one is chosen, that's likely the pattern I'll make.

Voting will end at the end of this week, and whichever one receives the most votes will unlock at the $30k mark!

Happy voting, and as always, thanks so much for your support!

Cheers,
Rain

WE ARE FUNDED!! 🎉 New goals!
about 1 month ago – Tue, May 12, 2026 at 02:59:54 PM

Hey witchy friends!

I'm so SO excited to be making my first campaign update for the Basic Witch Ita Bag, and even happier to say that we are FUNDED!!

Not only that, but we've blown past most of our initial stretch goals!!

The following items have all been unlocked:
  • The Basic Witch Ita Bag
  • ALL 8 printed inserts
  • ALL pin designs
  • Coin Purse
  • Card Wallet
  • All 3 Wristlets

So that leaves the only remaining initial stretch goal, which is the silver hardware version of the bag, and we are already so close to unlocking it - we are only a bit over $500 away! I have no doubt we will unlock it with plenty of time to spare!

Speaking of the $15,000 stretch goal, I have an update to it - I was just told by my manufacturer that I can split the MOQ for the card wallets & coin purses between colors, so now, the $15,000 stretch goal also includes silver versions of the coin purse & card wallet!

Meanwhile, I've got some NEW STRETCH GOALS to announce!

$17,000 - BONUS PAY for all guest artists: All guest artists will get a PAYMENT BONUS for all the hard work they put into making their pin designs 💜
$18,500 - 5 new wristlets: We'll unlock wristlet designs for the other 5 printed insert designs that don't currently have a matching wristlet, which are Night Sky, Twilight Sky, Lovestruck, Starstruck, and Skulls. I'll make mock-ups for these soon!

If we reach those we may be able to add some more stretch goals, however, I wanted to ask you all - what sort of additional stretch goals would you like to see? New insert colors/designs? Perhaps a keychain? Maybe a print? More pins? Or maybe there's another accessory that would make the bag more useful for you? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Cross-Collab

Before I end this update, I wanted to remind you to go check out Cat Head Pins' campaign, Cathedral and Coffin Ita BackPack!



Anyone who pledges for both of our campaigns will get the two below pins for FREE as long as both our campaigns get funded!


Adie's campaign is only a little over $500 away from funding, so let's show her campaign some love! 💜

Thank you

I was honestly extremely anxious about this campaign launch. I've only ever funded pins before, so with it being a new product at a higher price point and with the economy being rough for a lot of folks, I really didn't know how this was going to go over, so seeing all your support today has been really, really awesome. Thank you so much for supporting my ita bag, and thank you also for supporting all the amazing guest artists that made pins for it.

That's it for this update, I'll catch you in the next one!

Cheers,
Rain

Pricing, Early Bird Deals, & Cross-collabs
about 1 month ago – Sat, May 09, 2026 at 01:56:15 PM

Hey witchy friends!

With launch only a few days away, I wanted to try and get all the rest of the important information I wanted to share into one last pre-campaign update. So here we go!

🪄 Pricing

I'm sure a lot of you have been anxious and wondering about what the pricing on the bag is going to be, so I wanted to share beforehand to give you an idea.

The Basic Witch Ita Bag will cost $75 during the campaign.

I will most likely be raising the price on it after the campaign to at least $80 or more due to how much it costs to produce, so the campaign will be the best time for you to back it if you want it.

Other item pricing:
  • Coin Purse: $20
  • Card Wallet: $25
  • Luna Moth Pin: $30
  • Small Pin: $15
  • Standard Pin: $20
  • Wristlet: $12

Which pins are standard and which ones are small?

Small pins: Lunar Phases, Nyazazel, Eldritch Grimoire, Slime Friend, Galaxy In A Bottle, Twinkle Boo, Cat's Cradle, Crow Friend

Standard pins: Moon Wielder, Mask, Witch Boy, Gentleman Demon, Star Cetacean, Star Maiden, Arbiter, Plucking Starlight, Starman, Andromeda, Cupid's Arrow, Sweetheart, Aphrodisiac, Star In A Bottle

🪄 Early Bird Tiers

There will be several different limited-quantity early bird tiers available on launch day. 

  • $65 Basic Witch Ita Bag (just the bag): 35 available
  • $545 Full Moon Bundle (All items!): 5 available
  • $25 Luna Moth Pin: 15 available
  • $12 Small Pin: 35 available
  • $18 Standard Pin: 35 available

Once these are all sold out, I will not be adding more, HOWEVER - people often cancel pledges throughout the course of the campaign, so if you miss out on these on launch day, keep an eye on them - perhaps you'll be able to snag one if someone cancels! ;)

👉 Launch is May 12, 2026, at 2:00pm CDT (12:00pm PDT, 1:00pm MDT, 3:00pm EDT).

I recommend logging in and being on the launch party page a few minutes before launch time for your best chance at securing an early bird tier - I expect the EB tiers to sell out quickly!

🪄 Cross-collabs & Bag Bazaar

As usual, I will be doing a cross-collaboration with a fellow creator, this time I have partnered up with Cat Head Pins! Cat Head Pins is creating a super fun, gothy cathedral ita bag and cathedral wallet that I think you guys would really like!



Anyone who backs both our campaigns will receive both these exclusive pins FOR FREE as long as both our campaigns reach their funding goal!



How it works:
  • Pledge for Basic Witch Ita Bag at any physical tier. Support tier backers do not qualify to receive the freebie (a single pin counts!).
  • Pledge for Cat Head Pins' Cathedral and Coffin Ita BackPack campaign at any physical tier.
  • Receive each of the above pins for free - as long as both projects reach their funding goal!



Last but not least, Basic Witch Ita Bag is proud to be part of Bag Bazaar, a collection of creators who have created a wide variety of different styles of bags!

Pledge to 3 or more Bag Bazaar campaigns to receive a free gift from each artist you supported!



Backers must back Basic Witch Ita Bag at a physical item tier to qualify to receive the free Solar System pin.

I don't know for sure what the qualifiers are for each artist participating, so please make sure you check each artist to see how to qualify to receive their freebie.

Phew, that was a LONG update! If you made it this far, thanks for reading! Originally I was going to split this into 2 updates, but I wanted to spare your inboxes for the last few days before launch so I decided to tie it all up into one update. The next time you hear from me will most likely be launch day on Tuesday!

Until then, if you have any questions, feel free to comment below. Otherwise, I hope you have a great rest of your weekend!

Cheers,
Rain

Accessories: coin purse, wallet, and wristlets
about 1 month ago – Thu, May 07, 2026 at 11:50:40 AM

Hey witchy friends!

Today I have another update and wanted to reveal a few accessories that will be stretch goals for the campaign: a matching card wallet, coin purse, and wristlets!

Card Wallet

Even with how many card slots are already built into the bag itself, I know people still have a lot of other cards they might carry with them at any given time. I know I have a hoard of them in my own bag, myself, so I wanted to create an additional way to organize more cards should they be needed! With this small wallet, you can carry up to 10 additional cards.



Coin Purse

In addition, even with the built-in zipper pockets that can store coin change or other small items, I had a few requests from people to create a matching coin purse. With this you'll be able to carry even more coins, or perhaps something else like a small folding bag. I built in a clip so you can clip it to the outside of the bag.




Wristlets

I wanted to include multiple accessories that could help organize all your needed items more easily, and that includes wristlets. I have 3 planned as stretch goals that match the first 3 printed inserts.

It's not shown in these mock-ups, but each wristlet will also come with a split key ring. With the crab-claw attachment, you can clip whatever you want to it - keys, the coin purse, a keychain, or clip it to one of the d-rings on the bag itself - it's really up to you what to do with it!



That's all for today's update - My next update will cover some important information like pricing and what early bird pledge levels will look like, so if you've been wondering, keep an eye out - I'll be back soon with that info! 💜 After that, I have at least 1 more pre-campaign update planned where I will talk a bit about my cross-collab and group collab!

Cheers,
Rain
