Production Update

Hi everyone,

I’m happy to share a quick but important update about Secret Garden Tarot.
All decks and all merch items have now been fully produced – and the entire shipment is already on its way to our Los Angeles location.

The first rewards to go out will be the bundles that include the 2026 calendars, since these have the most time-sensitive delivery window. Once everything arrives and we complete the final checks, I’ll post another update.

Thank you so much for your patience and support – we’re very close now, and I can’t wait for you to hold Secret Garden Tarot in your hands.

And if you haven’t joined my new Four Courts Tarot campaign yet, now is a great moment to take a look. It’s growing beautifully, and I’d love to have you there too.

News from the Secret Garden
10 months ago – Tue, Oct 28, 2025 at 12:28:45 PM

Hi everyone!

I’m happy to share some wonderful news about Secret Garden Tarot.
Production is now fully underway — all samples have been approved, materials finalized, and the factory has started printing.
I’m attaching photos from the production process so you can take a peek behind the scenes.

I’m especially excited to share that the deck features an original typeface — designed by me specifically for this edition.

About the calendar
The final version of the calendar includes everything I envisioned from the beginning:
– lunar phases,
– zodiac sign transitions,
– retrograde planets,
– a daily card,
– a daily phrase.

It feels like everything you might need for a gentle morning ritual.

And a small announcement:
On November 18, I’ll be launching my next project — The Four Courts Tarot — a new deck that I’m curating as both publisher and art director.
It has a completely different style, filled with intricate detail and atmosphere — a world inhabited by fauns, mermaids, fairies, and other mythical beings.

Everyone who joins within the first 48 hours will receive an exclusive linen Tarot bag as a free gift.

Thank you for supporting my projects and helping them come to life.
Your attention, trust, and patience are what keep this garden growing.

With warmth, 

Una

We Did It — The Final Goal Reached!
12 months ago – Fri, Aug 29, 2025 at 12:13:05 PM

Dear friends,

In the very last minutes of the campaign, together we reached the final planned stretch goal
This is an incredible moment - I could not have imagined a more beautiful ending for this journey.

Thanks to your support, every goal envisioned for Secret Garden Tarot is now unlocked. This means that the deck and all additional elements will go into production exactly as we dreamed. 

What’s Next

The tear-off calendar will include Sun sign transitions, Moon phases, retrograde planets, a Tarot card of the day, and daily reflections, with a matte black edge finish.

Through BackerKit Pledge Manager, you’ll be able to adjust your pledge or add extra items after the campaign ends.

Looking Ahead

And as promised, I’d like to share what’s next:

My next personal deck will be created in two variations - Marseille Tarot and Rider-Waite Tarot. It will be hand-painted in watercolor and inspired by Delft ceramics and tiles, with the entire creative process open for everyone to follow.

I’m also beginning my path as a publisher: over the next six months, several decks by talented artists, each working in very different styles - will be launched under my guidance.

And finally, our team has already started developing a truly ambitious project: a Tarot application that will combine the best tools for daily rituals while carrying the magic and aesthetics of the Renaissance.

💛 Thank you for making this possible. We’ve ended the campaign on the highest note, and now the real journey begins.

With gratitude,
Una

🎉 $100K Reached! New Goal Unlocked + Your Opinion Needed
12 months ago – Tue, Aug 26, 2025 at 08:18:43 AM

Dear friends,

Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve reached an amazing milestone - our campaign has now surpassed $100,000! This is truly beyond what I imagined, and I’m endlessly grateful to each of you.

To celebrate this achievement, we are unlocking a new stretch goal:
Every backer will receive an exclusive enamel peony pin in the style of Secret Garden Tarot.

I would also love to hear your thoughts on an important detail.
Originally, the deck was planned with metallic red edges. However, I’ve received feedback that metallic finishes can wear off with use and may not look good over time. An alternative would be a matte red edge, which would be more durable while still looking elegant.

What do you think - should we keep the metallic shine, or go with a matte finish for longer-lasting beauty?

Thank you for making this project possible!
