I will not disappoint - just need to get a variance on the local building code - takes some time :)

Different backs and different jokers for giving us extra artwork to enjoy would have been a blast. Four corner indices should be a standard by now, to give the lefties some love, too. The back design is - while in line with the whole Meadowlark series - not that great. Probably one of the reasons I don't own any of them. With the negatives out of the way - Elettra did awesome with the courts and I like the touches she puts on number cards.
TL;DR: I have to be in.

I really love the design that Elettra has decided to use for the cards. I have to say that I prefer the colour of volume 1 but I will be in for a pair.

I love the art style, composition, and playfulness of these. I've passed on the previous Meadowlark decks, but I'm grabbing this one. I won't be building a house with it, but I'm in for a single Vol II deck.

I have a flat so I don't need to build a house either but when fulfilled, I'll enjoy my single Vol II as well. Like a good book with a fine wine. I really think this deck deserves to be accompanied by a fine red wine when examined after arrival 🧐.

Excellent idea. This is the type of deck you peruse when you've retired to the drawing room after dinner. I'm thinking a nice Port would make a good accompaniment.

I just got my pledge delivered. Cards are awesome. They included a free Blue Jay deck too. These came way faster than I was expecting.

Thanks for the link! I ordered the basic deck (Vol 1). Need to start cutting back here and there. I collect more than playing cards.

They take returns, so you can likely just contact them and cancel before it ships

This ☝🏿. I love how versatile her works are.
I wish she would've had more freedom with the back design but I totally understand that they wanted to keep it in line with the other Meadowlark releases.

Totally understandable. Seeing as it's a test print, I would imagine we may see a new Bold deck for 2023. We'll see!
