kickstarter is a kicka$s website that helps small businesses earn investors – lots of them with small contributions as opposed to one with a huge donation.

a personal inspiration, design glut, has set up a kickstarter page + is offering pre-order of limited edition necklaces as a vehicle to fund their creativity

i love the clever chain usage

pre-order these and more here. go on, support small design duo liz kinnmark + kegan fisher. small businesses are rad, women run businesses are fab and small women run businesses are my favorite !
