Winnie-the-Pooh's Hundred-Acre Arcana and Mystic Honeypot Emporium

✨✨ Nearly at $35K! Stretch Goal, Add-Ons, and International Shipping Update✨✨

✨To our wonderful backers,✨

We’re just shy of hitting our first stretch goal at $35,000, and this is a big one for the project. This is where all the extra care and attention — the custom touches that elevate the decks — start getting baked in. Reaching this goal will unlock premium production upgrades for both The Hundred Acre Arcana and The Mystic Honey Pot Arcana, including magnetic box lids and other refinements that bring a polished, collector-quality finish to the experience. ✨

We used magnetic lids for our previous decks, Steamboat Arcana 1928 and The Gaucho’s Arcana, and they were one of the most-loved features. They feel fantastic when opening and closing — sturdy, smooth, and satisfying. We're really excited to offer that same level of quality again with your help.

Add-Ons Now Available ✨

We’ve had a lot of questions about add-ons, and we’ve now added them directly to the campaign. You can include additional items with your pledge by adjusting your tier and selecting add-ons at checkout.

We’ve also heard from many of you asking about Steamboat Arcana 1928 and The Gaucho’s Arcana. While we didn’t include them here (we wanted to keep this campaign clean and focused), both will be available as add-ons during the BackerKit survey after the campaign ends.

🌍 International Shipping Clarification

We also want to clarify an issue some international backers have encountered. The original plan was to charge $25 USD for international shipping later via BackerKit. However, one of the early pledge tiers mistakenly included a $40 international shipping fee upfront.

Kickstarter doesn’t allow us to change shipping amounts once a pledge has been made, but we’ve now corrected this for the “Early Bird 2” reward tier, which charges $25 shipping through BackerKit instead of collecting it during the campaign.

If you backed at the $40 tier, you have a few options:

Switch to “Early Bird 2”, which is $5 more for the same two-deck bundle, and lets you pay the correct $25 shipping later.

Stay in your current tier, and we’ll make it right:

We can offer $15 store credit in BackerKit for add-ons.

Or include a bonus item, like a leftover Steamboat Arcana mini deck (deck only — no pouch or tin because we ran out of those).

We’ve also reached out to Kickstarter to see if there’s any way they can help resolve it from their end. In the meantime, we appreciate your understanding.

✨✨Thanks again for such an amazing first week. ✨✨ Your support has brought so much energy to this campaign, and we’re excited to keep building something truly special with you.

Warm regards,
The Hundred Acre Arcana Team

✨🚀 What a First Day! Early Bird Update & Stretch Goal Ahead ✨✨

Dear friends of the Hundred-Acre Woods,

Wow — what an incredible start! We’re thrilled to share that we raised over $25,000 in just the first 24 hours.🍯

✨Thank you so much for the overwhelming support, kind messages, and excitement. It truly means the world to us. 🙏

🐝 Early Bird Update

Our original Early Bird reward tier sold out quickly — much faster than we anticipated! We had hoped the Early Bird reward would be available for at least the first four days to give more people a chance to jump in early and be rewarded for their support.

We were surprised (in the best way!) to see it fill up so fast — and rather than leave anyone out, we’ve added a second and final Early Bird tier, just $5 more. It’s the same reward, and it gives new backers a final chance to join in early while keeping the campaign momentum strong.

We expect this tier to sell out in the next few days — so if you know someone who’s been thinking about it, now’s the time to share! ✨

🎯 First Stretch Goal – $35,000

We’re now heading toward our first stretch goal at $35K, which will unlock deck upgrades — including the return of our beautiful magnetic boxes 📦✨ (a favorite feature in Steamboat Arcana).

These upgrades bring a premium finish to the decks and really complete the experience — and we’re excited to be so close to making them a reality.

The journey is just beginning, and we’re so glad you’re a part of it.

Warm regards,

The Hundred Acre Arcana Team 🍯✨
