As of this weekend, all orders have been shipped out. Thank you for your patience during the minor delays, but I'm happy to say shipping went smoothly once the problems were fixed. Over 640 packages, more than 5000 pins, and a total of 84 displays were shipped out! It has been so much fun working on this project and I'm thankful for all of you wonderful explorers who joined me as we set out for the sky but instead we reached the stars!

My current project, Collectors Guild Cafe 2025 Calendar (& more!) is over in less than 30 hours! If you need a 2025 calendar, or a fun new coloring book, or even just want to enjoy our first 10-page comic book, please pledge to the Cafe. All physical pledges are receiving a free 3" Blaze the Phoenix sticker and a 2" x 6" Tree the Minotaur (Alister's wife!) bookmark!

As always, if you have any questions, please email me at [email protected].

Nos iter ad astra!

NOTE: as per my terms of service in the FAQ, if you do not fill out your survey and fully pay for pledge + shipping by October 31, 2024, your order for Celestial will be completely locked and you will not be refunded. I am not a warehouse, so I cannot keep your surveys open forever, nor can I store items forever if they are not paid for or claimed. Any money you have already paid will be considered a donation. CELESTIAL WILL FULLY CLOSE ON NOVEMBER 1ST, 2024.

Hello Shroomie friends! I meant to send out this update much sooner, but the past number of weeks have been almost entirely consumed with packing and shipping out all of the pins. I'm thrilled to announce that (aside from the few unanswered surveys / unpaid balance pledges) EVERYONE'S order has been shipped out! It was such a tremendous joy seeing which combinations of Shroomies each of you ordered, and I hope they continuously bring lots of silliness and smiles to your pin collection 😁🙌

Those of you who ordered sticker sheets may have already seen them in person by now (or will very soon!), but since I haven't shown them off here yet, please enjoy this look at the finished sticker sheets! 

Despite their delays and hassles in production, I'm really happy with how the holographic sheets came out, and pleasantly surprised by how thick the vinyl is. I hope you guys enjoy these shiny Shroomie stickers too! They pair nicely with the Shroomie Sticker Book as well ;)

If there are any pins or other items from this campaign you were eyeing but didn't quite get, never fear! All leftover stock from this project (including stickers, sticker books, etc.) will be going up on my ✦ Etsy Store ✦ soon. It's taking me some time to photograph everything and get listings up, but keep checking back! You can always follow my Etsy shop to get notified when new stock comes in too.

I'll also have a handful of seconds-grade Shroomie pins available at a steep discount that'll go up on the shop soon 👀 These beautifully imperfect pins with little flaws would love a new home too, so keep an eye out for those, and feel free to tell your mushroom-loving friends that some discounting Shroomies are coming!

You may have already seen the teaser page by now, but now the announcement is OFFICIAL: I'll be back for Pintopia 3 in January 2025! 🎉 I'm so excited to illustrate even more new Shroomies (thanks to all your votes and feedback in the reward surveys). Plus, it's very likely there will be at least one mushroom plushie in this upcoming campaign, since the votes and demand were nearly tied with more Shroomie pins! 

I would love your thoughts too as I consider potential mushroom plushie designs. What kind of Shroomie plush(es) would you like to see? I'm mostly curious about general plush size at the moment, so please use the poll below to voice your preference―and if you have any other ideas for mushroom plush design concepts, you can share them below in the comments :)👍

Once again, this project could not have happened without YOU! My utmost thanks and gratitude to every single one of you for choosing to back Shroomie Roomies and bring our fungi army to life 💪🍄 This has been the most fun campaign I've ever done by far, and I cannot wait to continue with more mushrooms in the next Pintopia. Until then, STAY SHROOMY, and I hope you all love the shiny new goodies!

Feel free to share your ideas for future Shroomie pin / plushie designs in the comments, as I'll be back in the art cave designing more over the coming months :)

All the best,

Hey guys,

Excited to see that the pins are shipped and they should get to me on the 17th! I won't be able to start grading until friday, and then I'll spend all of saturday packaging orders to ship out on the following monday. I think I should be able to tackle everyone's orders on saturday, if not then I should wrap up by Wednesday.

Thank you so much for your patience with this, I'm excited for everyone to get their pins <3

BUT...I just received the pins yesterday!  I have these bad boys in my hands, this is mind blowing! The whole process has been incredible, to draw something by hand, then it coming to life and I can actually hold it in my hands! It really is the simple things in life.

Shipping
I will begin shipping orders out this weekend!

Hi everyone!
The pins arrived, and they're really cute and Soapy...but they're soft enamel instead of the hard enamel I'd wanted.
I'm disappointed with the communication error with my manu.
They said it would be another 22 days to ship hard enamel versions, but if people are happy with these, I'm happy to ship them as they are, and include some extra Soapy goodies too.
Please please let me know your thoughts, I don't want anyone waiting any longer 😭🩵
Happy Sunday! - 🐻

Hello All,

In an effort to get pins at least beginning the process of shipping my manufacturer will be shipping my pins to me starting Tomorrow or Saturday, expedited shipping. We're hoping they can at least get out of China before the Mid-Autumn festival where many parts of the country are shut down for days, or the whole week in some companies. 

While doing final numbers, we realized the Blossom was made with the wrong plating. However, to not stop all the other pins from shipping, I will put in a formal order of the correct rose-colored metal in the next month or so when I have personal funds for them.


If you want to wait for the rose-gold, please message me at [email protected]. I will also try to reach out to everyone who ordered Blossom or her mini-pin. Those who backed Blossom can either wait for the reorder, accept the gold one with their other dragons, or I can ship their orders without Blossom and ship her later this year. My utmost importance is the satisfaction of my pledgers. Those I do not hear back from before October 1st will be defaulted to waiting for rose-gold plated Blossom and matching pin.

Any other questions? Feel free to message or ask. Thank you all so much! I am going to work hard to get as many orders out as possible and continue to pre-pack orders that may still be missing dragons for faster order completion when they arrive. 

Thanks again!

Hey everyone, great news — the FANTASY pins have arrived and they tuned out great!

I just sent out an email that will allow you to edit your shipping information over the next 48 hours. If nothing has changed since you filled out the survey, there is no action needed on your end.

In 48 hours all orders will lock with the address on file and I will begin the shipping process.

Looking forward to getting these out to you all soon.

As always, appreciate all the support with these weird little projects.

Fae corgis were delayed again. They had to fix something else so if you got a tracking number just know once they finally get in I will be mailing them out.

I'll be at MadEx this weekend, but working through some other orders today. Canceled a bunch that never made payment and will eventually be refunding anyone who doesn't fill out their survey. Also the fae corgis are a lot darker than expected? I have no idea what the real color is anymore since I have had so many photos.

One of these is a pearl (THIS WAS NOT BACKERKIT JUST EXTRA BC I LIKE SPARKLES) but I am unsure how variable these gradient transparent ones are. From the photos they are literally all over the place color wise.
