BLAINE, Wash., May 1, 2023 (Newswire.com) - KeepsakeMom, a one-of-a-kind breastmilk jewelry company focused on unique creations that celebrate and preserve this special time between mother and child, is pleased to announce a Kickstarter campaign that will allow mothers to create their own breastmilk jewelry at home. The campaign aims to raise funds for the development of four different DIY breastmilk jewelry kits — appropriately timed for Mother's Day and featuring rewards centered around the holiday. 

Launching May 1, 2023, KeepsakeMom has a $10,000 Kickstarter goal to fund the DIY kit materials, design, and packaging. Pledges will be accepted through Mother's Day on May 14, with a 7-tier rewards program:

• Pledge $79 or more to receive the Super Early Mother's Day price
• Pledge $89 or more for the Early Mother's Day price
• Pledge $99 or more for the Mothers' Day Kickstarter price
• Pledge $179 or more for the Mother's Day BFF package, and receive two DIY kits
• Pledge $189 or more for the Mothers' Day Mix & Match, and receive two different DIY kits
• Pledge $249 or more for two DIY kits and a behind-the-scenes studio tour video
• Pledge $449 or more for the Mother's Day Superstar price and receive all four DIY kits and the behind-the-scenes studio tour video 

Each DIY kit celebrates and honors a mother's breastfeeding journey, serving as cherished mementos of the commitment and determination required of breastfeeding. Since every mother's breastmilk is different, with different shades and consistencies, each piece of breastmilk stone jewelry is entirely unique and personal. DIY Kit No. 1 is Harmony, a ring with seven dainty, customizable breastmilk stone gems beautifully inlaid in a gold-plated setting. DIY Kit No. 2 is Burst of Love, a breastmilk stone ring featuring a 6x8mm custom-made, oval-shaped stone that is inlaid on each side with a cluster of dazzling cubic zirconia. Bundle of Joy is DIY Kit No. 3, featuring a breastmilk stone ring with a rounded oval stone set in a 114-gauge silver band. The final DIY kit is To the Moon and Back, a necklace that transforms breastmilk into a beautiful keepsake pendant with pearl powder for a pearlescent look and opal effect. 

The high-quality DIY breastmilk jewelry kits provide everything needed for at-home creations, including breast milk preservation powder, syringe, parchment paper, liquid acrylic resin, liquid resin hardener, mini measuring cups, stirring sticks, silicone mold (depending on the setting), stirring stick, toothpicks, jewelry setting, jewelry box, mini funnel, mini glass container, and step-by-step instructions. Creators may also choose to add additional personal elements for further customization, such as color shimmers, gold or silver flakes, and even a lock of their baby's hair. 

"We're thrilled to be launching this Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for unique, beautiful breastmilk jewelry making kits that will help countless mothers forever preserve this cherished time in their life," said KeepsakeMom Founder Anna Thachuk. "A woman's breastfeeding journey represents the start of a beautiful bond between mother and child, and these pieces of keepsake jewelry celebrate that emotional closeness and serve as a lifelong reminder of their beginnings."

The KeepsakeMom Kickstarter campaign will run from May 1-15, with packaging design and materials purchased between May 16-31. Packaging production will take place from June 1-15, with kits assembled and shipped between June 16-30. Estimated delivery for all pre-orders made through the Kickstarter campaign is July 2023.

KeepsakeMom has been creating exquisite breastmilk jewelry since 2020. The company's breastmilk jewelry line is a unique collection made entirely from breast milk, inspired by Thachuk's personal story. She found breastfeeding to be a blissful bonding experience with her first child, only to be disheartened just two months into her breastfeeding journey when her supply rapidly diminished. Understanding the incredible value of breast milk and the bond it fostered with her child, she decided to learn the art of breastmilk curing to create these stunning works of art.

Personal Preference Game
Group playing the new edition of the Personal Preference board game

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., May 1, 2023 (Newswire.com) - After three-and-a-half decades, a popular board game, Personal Preference, is getting a major upgrade. The 1988 game, which sold hundreds of thousands of copies and became a favorite of Hollywood celebrities, is finally spawning a new, updated version. Thanks to the efforts of a group of devoted fans and the game's original creator, retired Purdue Professor Don Carlston, players both old and new will be able to enjoy a modern take on this classic favorite.

What's unique about Personal Preference is the expertise that went into its creation and the devotion of its enthusiasts. The original game was based on Professor Carlston's academic research and was created to serve as an icebreaker and help people get to know each other better.

Some cards in the original game became dated and, over the years, countless fans reached out to Carlston with requests for new cards or offers to buy the rights to the game so it could be updated. Eventually, he decided to team up with some of his most persistent fans to make the new edition a reality. This core team was bolstered by a group of 50 diehard devotees who came together over Zoom during the pandemic to play test and evaluate potential topics. "It really was an international team effort," says Carlston, "with volunteers from the U.S. and Canada and even Great Britain. And the result is a version that is even better than the original."

Carlston suggests that the lasting success of Personal Preference is because "most people enjoy hearing others' impressions of their likes and dislikes, and they also enjoy revealing and explaining their true tastes and preferences. These are the things that define who we are, so they are also the best way to get to know and connect with others." Now, as we come out of the isolation of the pandemic, the dedication of a group of devoted Personal Preference fans will give old and new players alike a fun, new way to reconnect with friends and family.

BOSTON, May 1, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The informative series, "Get the Prenup," written by Deputy Editor, Esther Lee, in The Knot Magazine Summer 2023 Inspiration Issue, with designed illustrations by Abby McCartin, gets on one knee about the benefits of prenuptial agreements and how at minimum, a prenup can encourage communication before entering marriage.

Prenuptial agreements by nature are designed to be a wealth planning tool and act as a key resource for getting on the same page financially as their partner. 

"While each marriage differs, a solid prenup unifies couples in at least one respect: It encourages communication as you prepare for marriage…With contractual services available online, there's little reason not to discuss your financial solution with your partner. Trust us: Sign the prenup before the marriage license." - Esther Lee, Deputy Editor, The Knot

Though prenups have traditionally been seen as "taboo" or "unromantic," there's an increasing shift in prenup perceptions among millennials and Gen-Zers and how the benefits mitigate potential risks encountered prior to getting into a legally binding contract. 

"Our data found that 46% of couples describe prenups as 'smart,' while another 20 percent perceived these contracts to be 'cynical," says Lee.

Featured within the article is Julia Rodgers, the Chief Prenup Officer and CEO of HelloPrenup—the online prenuptial agreement platform for affordable, timely, and collaborative prenups. Traditionally, the prenuptial agreement process was sought through billable attorney hours, lengthy contract negotiations, and relatively adversarial conversations between partners and their counsel. Within the article, she gives examples of how states view money as a married couple and what to consider when discussing the couple's future.

"Without a prenuptial agreement, in most states, monetary gifts received during the marriage will be considered marital property. A prenup allows couples to decide if they would like these monetary gifts to be considered separate property." — Julia Rodgers, CEO & co-founder, HelloPrenup

HelloPrenup's mission is to get every couple the legal protection they need without spending thousands of hours or dollars on prioritizing their financial future before entering one of the most exciting times of their lives.

HelloPrenup has been featured on Shark Tank, CNN Business, Forbes, The Boston Globe, GeekWire, and The New Yorker, among others. Want more information on Julia or HelloPrenup? Contact [email protected] or visit HelloPrenup.com to learn more.
