Created by Allison Weyda Illustration

Eternal Bloom: Dark Garden is an expansion on my previous collection of Eternal Bloom pins focusing on poisonous, parasitic, and carnivorous plants!

Latest Updates from Our Project:

‼️ONE HOUR LEFT for Early Bird Pricing‼️
3 months ago – Sat, Jan 24, 2026 at 08:58:07 AM

Hi again everyone!

I'm checking in really quick to let you know there is only one hour left for Early Bird perks! This includes Early Bird pricing and the sticker freebie!




Once 1pm EST arrives, these reduced pledge levels will disappear!

In addition to this, I have also added new stretch goals for pins based on the sticker designs:




Keep in mind that the sticker design will differ from the final pin design and the pin design won't be as detailed. I will be working on the pin versions of this art ASAP and will update you when the designs are complete!

We have also unlocked the Foxglove design and are very close to unlocking the Mistletoe design so far!




Thank you all for your fabulous support these first 48 hours!

Have a great weekend!

3 months ago – Fri, Jan 23, 2026 at 07:01:18 AM

Hello Everyone!

I’m so happy to announce that the project was fully funded and all base pin designs have been unlocked, including the Monkshood Stretch Goal! Thank you so much for all the incredible support!✨

If you haven’t pledged yet, please keep in mind that the Early Bird Pricing and Freebie Sticker is only available for the first 48 hours after launch, ending on January 24th at 10 AM PDT (1 PM EST). Make sure to grab it before it’s gone!

Since we are blasting through our goals, I have added a couple new Early Bird Pledge Levels if you are interested in more designs. You can alter your pledge if needed before the Early Bird period ends!


The next design to be unlocked is Angel's Trumpet!



I have also added a poll for you to vote on to see if you all would like the sticker designs to become new pin stretch goals! Be sure to vote or comment and make you opinion heard!



Thanks you all so much for a great launch!
