Silikids teamed up with animation character designers Bill Schwab from "Frozen" and Jim Feeley from "American Dad" (Schwab and Feeley also just happen to be the co-founders husbands!) to create unique glass sets and art as rewards for the Kickstarter campaign. The glasses and the art are exclusive to the Kickstarter campaign and will not be available again after November 20^th.

The collectible items are the perfect holiday gift and as a bonus all orders include the NEW Siliskin Straw Tops.

The ingenious Siliskin Straw Top is a silicone top that covers the top of any glass making it spill-proof while converting it into a straw top.

"Our silicone tableware accessories like our straw tops are designed to make the basics like glass, easier and safer to use.  A main focus of ours is to bridge the gap between innovative, high-end design and affordability," said Stacey Feeley, co-founder Silikids.  "This Kickstarter campaign allows us to celebrate great art and the simplicity of glass making it cool, functional and fun, while passing it on to generations to come."

The campaign has a $7,500 fundraising goal that will go towards the production of the glassware sets, Siliskin® Straw Tops, high quality Giclee prints, shipping and processing fees.

All Kickstarter backers of the Siliskin Straw Top campaign will receive a 3-pack of the Straw Tops and glasses along with a host of different awards that include glass sets, limited edition prints (including high quality Giclee prints and signed limited edition artist prints) from Schwab and Feeley.  One top level backer will even get to have a power lunch with Schwab, Feeley and the Silikids team in LA to share notes, doodles and ideas.

The Kickstarter campaign for the Silikids Straw Top runs until November 20, 2014.
