It’s spring! Time for new things!<\/p>\n
I’ve been thinking about adding some tiers. My ideas are below — please vote for anything you like or might suggest or send to a friend!<\/strong><\/em> And\/or comment about names, contents, combinations\u2014all your ideas are welcome. Also, remember; you can change your tiers whenever, going up or down as you feel like.<\/p>\n Possible New Tiers:<\/strong><\/p>\n Sticker Club <\/em>– monthly single sticker or sticker sheet, ~ 2.5″ \u00a04″ wide. Single stickers would be likely suitable for travel mugs, laptops. Sticker sheets might be better for journals. Estimate this tier as $8-$9\/month to cover making, shipping. Would include Coffee (sketchbook) and Coloring as well.<\/p>\n Card Connoisseur <\/em>\u00a0– different each month, a single blank card with envelope, for collecting, posting, or writing in. Would probably vary from the mini card to 4″x6″ note card (“invitation”) size to occasional 5″x7″ greeting card size. \u00a0I estimate this tier would also be $8-$9\/month to cover making, shipping. Would include Coffee (sketchbook) and Coloring as well.<\/p>\n Tiny Dragon’s Hoard<\/em> – combines sticker club and card collector. A little different from Mysteries Mailed in that you’d know what was coming. $10-12 maybe. (All sorts of fun things have been sent as Mysteries Mailed….)<\/p>\n Paper Treasures <\/em>– receive an original drawing each month (maybe 11\/12 months), maybe with an option to chose from a few different ones? \u00a0Something around $25 (sturdy shipping is a thing). Definitely on paper, usually pencil, more finished\/complete than the sketch book pages. Size would vary, between trading card and 8×10″. Maybe posting several and letting patrons choose?<\/p>\n I look forward to your advice!
