Common Picnic = Kickstarter Success!!

May 3, 2015

Thank you to everyone who backed my project!! I am so grateful for the many donations, as well as the numerous social media shares and encouragement. I had no idea what to expect when I embarked on this Kickstarter adventure--I wasn’t sure if I would meet my goal, let alone exceed it! It feels wonderful to have such amazing support from friends and family, not to mention complete strangers who just happen to like my idea. This funding is really going to help make this project great, and I can’t wait to share it with you all this summer!
