This update is being sent to all followers of Sunset Road.

There's 6 days left of the campaign - time flies! I have TWO new stretch goal variant designs for you that I'm hoping we can unlock if we hit $16k in pledges!



We have one premium and one standard variant. The premium pin features two hockey players close to my heart in the 3D molded metal locket design. The standard pin features a suggestion from you all - for those bookish individuals who prefer a steaming mug of hot cocoa!

I would love to get these variants unlocked to include them in the post-campaign survey for you all, so please share the campaign! I've been working already on picking all the pantone colors and effects so I can get these designs into production ASAP.

XO,
Nikki

Once again, I can't thank you all enough for the support on this campaign. Make sure if you haven't pledged yet and are interested to pledge before 1pm ET/10am PT to get the free rainbow book cover pin!

I've attached a new poll below for a possible stretch goal as we still have a whopping 19 days left of this campaign and we've already unlocked almost everything in the campaign. If you have specific ideas you'd like to see, please leave a comment here or on the poll. I always love to hear suggestions!

There are also a lot of new names here, so I figured I'd do a little intro post so you know more about the artist behind this campaign. My name is Nikki, I'm born and raised in northern New Jersey and I live here with my husband and my three rescue cats named Meatloaf, Lily and Ruby. During the day I work in a baseball museum where I've been for almost 14 years; I have my Masters degree in Museum Professions. I've been creating enamel pins since 2017 when I started Sunset Road. In my spare time I love to read, travel, and craft. My favorite music genre is pop-punk specifically from the Drive-Thru records era and I go to a lot of concerts, you can often find me in Walt Disney World, and I most likely will have an iced coffee in my hands 80% of my awake hours.


XO,
Nikki, Ty, Meatloaf, Lily & Ruby

In less than 24 hours, we've unlocked SEVEN levels of the campaign! I'm absolutely floored. Thank you all so much for the love shown to this collection.

Next up are the Ereader pins in two variants, and the Heart Lockets in two variants! The Heart Locket mold will be 3D molded metal and will stay open as pictured.

We also hit our first achievement, which is a free Support Your Local Library sticker for ALL backers! This will be automatically added to all completed surveys on campaign completion. Hooray!

There's still time to grab the FREE Early Bird rainbow book design if you back in the next 24 hours. So far, you'll be receiving all of these items for free if you've pledged:

That comes out to $42 in free items for successfully pledging to our campaign!

Thank you again for your tremendous support for this project. Let's unlock the last 3 levels and get to the next freebie achievement. Please also vote on the poll so I can see if we can make some more stretch goals happen!

I truly can't thank you enough for blowing away my expectations for the first 5 hours of this campaign. I am really hoping we can unlock all of the levels, and also unlock the free sticker for everyone at $7500 and the free mini pin for everyone at $15k.

I've actually already started mocking up the proofs for the unlocked designs and picking pantone colors and effects, so I'll be wasting no time in getting these into production when the campaign wraps up. I'm just so excited to get these pins made, I've really loved kicking off 2026 with a fully bookish campaign!

Make sure to snag the early bird reward of a free rainbow book pin by backing in the first 48 hours!

Wow! We are funded in under 2 hours! Thank you all so much for pledging to our bookish campaign. I'm so happy to be able to bring these designs to life. We're well on our way to our next unlock goal...



This book potion pin I am SUPER excited about. The clear portion will be a "stained glass" effect that will be clear epoxy to really emulate the look of a potion bottle. You'll be able to choose between the starry night or love potion variant.

Don't forget, for backing in the first 48 hours you'll be receiving a FREE 1" rainbow book pin! Share this campaign with your fellow literary lovers so they don't miss out on an extra freebie pin by backing early!

We are partnering with our friends at Oddment & Tweak for their Level Up! campaign; by backing both projects you'll receive a free pin from both campaigns. My freebie is another 1" book cover pin. Check it out!

Thank you again for making our fifth crowdfunding campaign on Backerkit an early success. We are so appreciative.

XO,
Nikki
