Are you thinking, "I love Design Glut's style, but I want something NO ONE else has?" Aha, well, we can cater to that. At the $1,000 level, you enter into Design Glut COUTURE. We will design a special necklace just for you. It will be photo-etched stainless steel, in the same high-quality finish as our World Links and Balloon necklaces, but this design will be exclusively yours. Tell us what you want to wear around your neck and we'll make the design magic happen. And because we love you so much, you'll also get the Avoid-Holiday-Shopping Gift Set and drinks with Design Glut.

For schools, universities, and businesses - help us help you. We'll fly out to you, anywhere in the US, and teach a full-day workshop. The session will be tailored to your group. Perhaps you'd like us to teach your students about how to start a design and manufacturing company, or you'd like us to educate your team about using social media and innovative marketing techniques to increase sales. We're on the cutting edge of how creative business works these days, and can put that knowledge to work for you.

Is it still possible to make a pledge and or preorder
Oh good! Thank you Megan!
i love my balloon necklace! thank you ladies!
Its a really nice project that you girls have! congratulation! But the truth is that you have a supernice design vision, and that's all about it!
Good job!
yay! my girls will get their shiny gifts indeed...
They will totally make you a custom bag of goods so you can buy multiple shiny things!
I don't suppose you could add a level that includes the anchor, world links and flat jewels pieces? I'd up my pledge if you could :)
Thank you so much Melanie and Raji for the votes of confidence! We'll be on the edges of our seats for the next week - but I think we can do it, we're so close!
I saw you at the Kickstarter Conversations last night. I'm not a design person but I can see that you totally beleive in what you're doing. I liked your presentation. I can't wait until I get my balloon necklace! I pledged because I know you're going to make it! Best of luck.
Congrats for crossing the 6K mark.. Suddenly $3,900 seems so doable. Hoping that some institution makes the miracle 2.5k pledge, all the best....
I want to do another pledge so that i can pre order another necklace. How can i do that?
