Alethi Bookmarks

[Krelian]

I'd be interested in grabbing one with one of the Ideals, for sure. Let me know details once you figure them out (space on the paper, payment, etc.). 

 

Looks like they'll turn out great!

[Windrunner he/him]

Definitely interested in this Just a question, are the circles in your example one of the "fonts" or is it a part of the writing we haven't seen yet?

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

Great question windy it's just an aspect of the font.

[Elisheva]

I'm Not Sure About All The Rules, But This Sounds Like An Excellent Project For KickStarter. You Could Have The Monetary Backing Promised Before Production And Could Probably Reach A Larger Audience And Offer More Professional Looking Bookmarks.

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

I actually considered it. However, I want to check with Brandon and make sure he was okay with me selling the bookmarks on that scale before I do. But if he's okay with it, you can bet that I will!

[Elisheva]

Sorry about all the caps...Swype was malfunctioning

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

No worries. I know how that is.

[Jeremy he/him]

Sweet!  I will pm you soon with details.

 

 

 

 

I have to say, I'm willing to do the quotes, but they might be a bit hard to all fit in the space.  However, if I can fit it, I'm totally willing to.  

Sounds good. If space becomes an issue, having just the first ideal itself would be just as good, i.e. "Life before death. Strength before weakness." on one side, with "Journey before destination." on the opposite side.

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

That would absolutely be doable. . I am hoping to get the order form finished soon, and then I'll be pming/posting instrucations.

Edit: Okay, so I just need to finish the order form and then I'll be posting instructions! Thanks to everyone for your interest and helping get this started!

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

Double post to make sure it stands out!  To order, see instructions here!

Just some quick questions:

 

Is shipping $5.95 per bookmark or per order?

 

If we are planning to order more than one, would it be okay to just use the Phrase section for added details, or would you prefer that we submit a separate order for each bookmark?

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

I think that we could fit multiple bookmarks into an envelope, so it would depend on how many you were wanting to order as for how much shipping you'd need to pay.  PM me and I'll work out details with you.

 

If you're planning on ordering multiple bookmarks, but the coloring is going to stay the same (three that are red ink with gray background) then one form is fine.  If you'll be changing background color, please submit a request for each (both for tracking purposes and for ordering.  )  Thank you!

[BlairJ he/him]

Thank you.  Going to order mine this week.  Not sure what to put on it yet...

 

And sorry for being an idiot, but even after looking at the form, I am not sure how much each bookmark costs.  I only see the price for shipping.

 

Thanks

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

NO worries.  The bookmark itself is 10$ if you only want text on one side, and 13$ if you want the text on both sides (+shipping costs)

[thorongil he/him]

I will definitely order mine this week, this is a fantastic project.

 

However, how about the shipping costs to Austria (not Australia )? I have to suspect they will be higher than 5,95?

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

I am looking into the costs, so I'll let you know for sure!

Edit: So it looks like to go to Aussie it will be about 6$.

[thorongil he/him]

Thanks. I am planning to order 2 bookmarks, in case that makes any difference for the shipping.

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

Currnetly looks like for both the UK and Aussie (I can't spell) is about 6$ for shipping.

[Krelian]

Is this a limited time offer? I'd like 1-2, for sure, but it'll have to wait until I pay all my bills later in the month. I'm terrible at balancing a checkbook, have to go on current balance 

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

It's not limited, no. Feel free to order when you've got the money. Once I have the inital wave of orders sent, I'm planning on asking Brandon to pimp them a bit.

[Krelian]

Ok, awesome. Well, you can count on another order a few weeks from now then 

 

I really like this idea, btw, good luck with it!

[little wilson she/her]

I like this idea a lot. Are you planning on taking any pictures of them as you complete them, before sending them off? It could be a good way to show people the true finished product. Especially for the bookmarks that are likely going to be the most requested...."Life before death, Strength before weakness, Journey before destination", etc....

 

I'll have to figure out what I want. But that First Ideal sounds good....Also, I would totally chip in on a Kickstarter. This from the girl who NEVER chips in on Kickstarters. Partially cuz I don't really have a whole lot of money, and mostly cuz as much as I like the people doing them, I wouldn't really use what's being funded. And I'm a somewhat anal about my money in that regard. If I'm not gonna use it, I'm not gonna buy it. Bookmarks, however, I will use. Especially one as cool as this. Totally beats my scrap of scratch paper that is my current bookmark. 

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

I am planning on taking pictures of them, for sure.  

 

Also, I think if I do get permission to do a kickstarter, I will.

[FlashWrogan he/him]

Though I lack the extra funds for this right now, I do like the idea. A suggestion, what about putting the english translation in small subtext below the main text? It would be nice and much more accessible, especially if one forgets what that bookmark says that they've had for several months or years.

[firstRainbowRose she/her]

I am willing to consider this.  I had someone offer to pay me a little bit extra to do exactly this on one of their bookmarks, so I'm going to see how hard it is to fit the text into the space, and then go from there.
