Welcome to the last week of August! ALL SHIPMENTS ARE COMPLETE.
That's right, every single one of ya'lls order has been packed and sent out within the longest 7 days of my life. I was packing anywhere between 20-30 packages a day and then throwing them at my local postal worker who, by day 5, was sick of seeing me.
He was very happy to hear that the packages today were the last ones. What a workout!
Now I am not deaf, I hear you guys yelling from the rooftops,
What the hell is happening with De Minimis and import fees and stuff?
I've contacted my postal service last week but havent't heard anything back. They're being silent about this and the EU is fighting back the vague explanation of tariffs from the USA's side. Today is the 25th, the supposed cut off day. Will things arrive before the 29th? I couldn't tell you. This new policy came into effect over night with zero explanation, zero time to prepare, zero infrastructure, just prayers that the law will bend into submission. I'm sure some of you who follow me on Bluesky have seen some of my rambles on the situation.
TLDR; I've no idea what's happening. I don't want to tell you all something and then have it end up being incorrect. But we should all have our fingers crossed everything arrives fine and dandy.
The fees for Ireland should be 15%. If you do get import fees, it would be calculated as such: ITEM COST + SHIPPING COST x 15% = IMPORT FEE
I did my best to minimise import fees if you do get hit with them as well.
That said, the majority of orders Do Not Have Tracking. If your order page and email doesn't direct you to a tracking page, you do not have tracking. I can't magic tracking out of thin air. Most things were sent using a digital stamp, and all I will know is if it arrived to the airplane postal depot. The good news is that some of the mail I sent out last week that IS tracked has already arrived at the US border, and is more than likely being processed by customs. That is quite a fast turnaround compared to the usual time it takes. So when will your mail arrive if you're in the US? Soon, I would hope. And without too much delay. But because of the current sporadic situation I ask you to give your mail 2 months to arrive in case your customs offices are absolutely swamped with mail. Usually mail takes about 3 weeks to arrive, but if something gets caught by customs- which is common enough- it can take longer to be released. Especially now. If I get any returns, I will contact you through email immediately.
TO THE PEOPLE I CONTACTED ABOUT MY POSTAL SERVICE DENYING YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS... I have kept all the failed mail until the end so I could cross reference what issue was between all of them. And in the end it was the stupid glitch I've ever seen in my life. The post site hates the abbreviation of Oregon. I don't know why. I don't know how. I fixed the issue by typing out the entire state name. Your mail went through just fine now.
IF YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES.... I think Backerkit added a way to message creators now, I will see if that is something that's enabled. If you can't find the option to do that, you can email me with any quieries, questions and problems to [email protected]
If you're in the EU, UK, or anywhere else in the world: you're fine. You've nothing to worry about. EU orders are starting to show up in people's hands already.
When you do get your orders, please feel free to tag me on instagram or bluesky so I know your items are safe and sound with you!
Now enough with the sadness and worrying...
THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU WHO SUPPORTED ME ON MY FIRST CROWDFUNDER.
I cannot express enough how much love and appreciation I have for all you backers, friends, and fellow creators who supported me through every step of the way. From sharing the project, giving design advice, participating in polls, to helping with the backend so everything goes as smoothly as possibly. Truly, thank you. Thank you all so much <3
This is hopefully not the first and not the last project I ever do. I'm already planning a new campaign for Pintopia in January of 2026, with a perhaps smaller scope to this one, and I will update you all here once that project launches.
Thank you all again <3
Find my on social media if you'd like! Or in person at Irish conventions <3
Hi everyone! After some thinking and taking in suggestions, I drafted up some ideas for an Intestines angel pin. I would plan to make this a stretch goal at $4000! Here are some design ideas, please vote for which one you'd like! And of course, if you had any design feedback, feel free to drop it in the comments.
I do not plan on making any more pins after this, but I would love to make some nice 3 inch holographic stickers of the current designs. Are people interested in this?
Thank you everyone who has backed the campaign so far!! We have 10 days left, so please be sure to share this around!
I've been managing a lot these past several months, and while I know communication is everything, the exhaustion has been real. I've had to pour myself fully into my main source of income to keep things afloat... the mundane world waits for no one, not even this little infernal project that I love so dearly.
On top of that, my kitten has been in and out of the ER for the past two months. It has been emotionally and physically draining in ways I didn't quite anticipate. He's my little soul kitty, and watching him struggle has taken more out of me than I expected. He's doing well-ish and could still use prayers and a candle lit in the name of good health and healing.
No excuse though. I own the silence, and I'm back.
The boxes are stocked. Those of you who haven't yet received your items will be getting a shipping notification in your email either today or tomorrow. Please keep an eye out for your tracking information!
Thank you all for your patience and your grace. You are the blessed angels of this endeavor, and this work exists because of you.
I’m extremely worried. If I knew where they were from, I would have called for a wellness check months ago. I don’t care about the pins at this point. I just want them to be ok. Has anyone heard any news about their safety?
I know this campaign is formally well and done with on my half, but I know there’s some concerns being brought up to me now over a dozen times and I wanted to at least make a formal cover all post about it.
My collab partner has not been in communication with any of us from the oddities campaign, and none of us have heard from her despite reaching out on multiple platforms.
We haven’t gotten any information on shipping of orders, so I’m not sure if or when they’ll happen. It is upsetting and unfortunately totally out of my hands on this.
I hope she’s okay and doing what is needed in her life to get through whatever it is she has to deal with, and that perhaps we’ll all be happy and surprised to get shipping notices one day.. a lot of from the campaign are waiting too..
I’ve had many asking me recently if I would offer up the full mermaid, who was Siren’s lament in this campaign, but in the collab color format.
Below is the original color way of Lament. I still have a small handful of this one, but she’s running low. I know it would be extra charges for everyone at this point, but I’m willing to add it to my next preorder shop with my Bag campaign coming up. Please let me know if this is something that would be interesting for you all to have, so you can still technically fulfill the whole mermaid.
I wanted to take a moment to reconnect and share where things have been! Nothing bad, so don’t worry.
The past few weeks have been crazy! And has pulled me into a very intense stretch of work, where I had to shift my focus into a major crowdfunding campaign for my primary business, Dungeon Damsel. I was tasked with handling design, layout, advertising, and coordination, all while traveling to two conventions. On top of that, I was in 10+ interviews, sometimes doing several in a single day, and the exhaustion was very real…
Right after launching the Backerkit campaign for Druskara, I headed to Gary Con to attend as an industry professional, reconnect with old friends, and meet new ones. A lot of that time was also spent making sure Druskara had a strong and successful launch, which it absolutely did. We are currently sitting at 200k, and I could not be more grateful for how that has unfolded.
Through all of this, Infinite & Infernal has never been far from my mind. I know it has been some time, and I truly appreciate your patience and trust while I navigated a very intense amount of work.
I will be home shortly, and shipping will resume in full with my partner! With everything else now complete, we are able to focus entirely on fulfilling your orders and getting your pins into your hands where they belong! Yay!
Thank you for your patience, your support, and for sticking with me through both the quiet and chaos. It means more than I can properly put into words! Maybe… ahhhhh!
Shipping is slow and steady, but shipping is happening. I did fracture my foot, which has made moving around very strenuous, so things have been a bit slower than I would like. I was also focused on my Cats Among The Cosmos campaign, but that has now ended, so I am fully back to the shipping grind.
Please keep an eye out for an email with your tracking information as your order goes out.
After nearly two months of cursed radio silence from my manufacturer (I was this close to summoning something unholy), the pins have finally clawed their way into my hands. I genuinely thought I was going to combust.
But the wait is over. The seals are broken. The hoard is real.
Shipping has officially begun.
Your infernal babes are being packed, labeled, and sent screaming into the mortal realm as we speak... AHHHHH. Thank you for surviving this hellscape of patience with me—you are truly my most devoted supporters in the realm.
And don’t forget to head over to myPintopia campaign Cats Among The Cosmos to support my next set—launching in less than 24 hours! Here is a black hole design I think you'll love...
If you’ve supported Furight-Night Felines, good news... those pins are officially in production.
As always, thank you for your support, and thank you for the patience! You're stellar!
