Help me launch my SFX prosthetic shop. Be a part of the magic!
Hi everyone, I’m an SFX artist based right here in Ontario.
In 2022, I graduated with a dream. I was fueled by a passion for special effects, sculpting, and bringing my imagination to life! My goal was to launch my own independent prosthetic shop on etsy immediately after graduation.
But as many of you know, life doesn't always go according to plan.
Following graduation, I hit a series of incredibly difficult personal trials. Heavy life circumstances completely pulled the rug out from under me. Piece by piece, I lost my spark. The mental and emotional toll stripped away my ability to create, and I had to step away from the passions that defined who I was. I ended up working many years of retail, leaving my sculpting tools to gather dust.
But you can only quiet a passion for so long. I am finally ready to fight for my dream again.
I am starting over completely from the ground up, with nothing but a blank table and a drive to create. This campaign is my way of reclaiming my artistic spark, and I am asking for your support to help me build my shop.
Your backing will go directly toward purchasing initial inventory and general overhead needed to build my business (Fangs & Frills Makeup).
I cannot do this alone, and I want to make sure your generosity
is recognized. As a heartfelt thank-you for helping me rebuild my
dream from scratch, I have designed a tier-based rewards system.
Whether you just want to drop a few dollars to help me buy a block of clay, grab some merch, or collaborate with me on a fully custom prosthetic piece, your support means the absolute world to me.
Every single person who backs this campaign is directly helping me get this business off the ground.
Please read before selecting a tier: Because this campaign is fundraising to help me build my business and purchase raw startup materials, these thank-you rewards are not immediately available. Most handmade physical rewards will be crafted over the coming months and delivered alongside my official Etsy launch around Summer/Fall 2027 (to safely avoid harsh winter shipping temperatures!).
Here is how you can get involved and what I want to give back to you:
Tier 0: The General Donation (Pay What You Can)
Every dollar helps me buy a bit more clay or cover the materials needed to bring my ideas to life. If you just want to support an independent artist reclaiming their dream without receiving a physical reward, click the general donation button above! I am deeply grateful for any amount.
Tier 1 ($25+): The Etsy Founder’s Discount (Unlimited)
Become a lifetime supporter. You will receive an 10% discount code for your purchases when the official Etsy shop launches next year. Valid for one year after store opening.
Once you contribute to any tier (Tier 1+), please DM me on Instagram @fangs_and_frillsmakeup with:

Once you contribute to any tier (Tier 1+), please DM me on Instagram @fangs_and_frillsmakeup with:
- The exact full name used on your FundRazr receipt.
- A quick confirmation of the thank-you tier you selected.
This allows me to cross-reference my official FundRazr
dashboard, protect our community from scammers, and keep an
organized master list so I know exactly who to send rewards to
when Fangs & Frills Makeup officially
launches in Summer/Fall 2027!
📢 Note: My custom pieces, premade wounds, and the Fangs & Frills merch packs are strictly limited (capped at 5, 10, and 35 slots respectively) so I can guarantee movie-quality craftsmanship and ensure I don't get overwhelmed as a solo artist. If these tiers sell out, any additional general donations or tier 1 supporters will still go directly toward building this studio from scratch. Thank you for helping me bring my passion back to life!
🖤 Can't contribute financially? You can still help me rebuild!
