Project Update: Surveys are out!
Excited to tell you surveys are out. They're pretty simple given I've only got one option here. ;) But you'll also have the option to get a matching sticker set with your pin set.
There's still 6 failed backers and 1 uncharged backer in the pipes. You can still fix these. However, if you fail to fix it you will not receive any rewards. So please double-check and make sure your pledge didn't fail! Search your email for "your payment has failed" from BackerKit.
There's also a surprise pin design you can add-on with a discounted rate for BackerKit... The Many-Eyed Wolf:
Black soft enamel, 2 back posts and a back stamp, 2 colors, one glow color.
If you'd like one, simply add it to your survey as an add on. These should come in at around the same time as the other designs so I should be able to get everything packed and going at once after everything comes in.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
Project Update: Failed Pledges - Please fix to receive rewards!
I am seeing 1 uncharged pledge and 8 failed pledges. Pledges that are failed must be fixed before May 2nd to receive rewards. I am unable at this time to see who the failed pledges are so can't reach out to you individually. Please check your email for emails from BackerKit. Most failed pledges are due to bank holds, so reprocessing your card should be as easy as clicking a button. Search your email for "your payment has failed" and you'll likely find the email. :)
I'm excited to say that I got backing cards in today, the pins have just been approved for production, and I'll be ordering the stickers very shortly. Nothing super worth posting photos of, but I'll share as soon as I get some more substantial updates!
If you missed the campaign entirely and still want a set, you can pre-order in the now open pre-order store.
More updates soon!
Project Update: Missed the campaign? You can still order! Pre-order store now open
Excited to be talking to the manufacturer and getting all the details finalized about the designs. For now though, I wanted to let you know that the pre-order store is open. The store is there in case you missed the campaign or had to cancel your pledge mid-way through.
That's it! Hoping to have a more substantial update for you next time I post one. :)
Project Update: We did it!
I can hardly believe how far and fast this project has come, and that's all thanks to YOU! Thank you to my backers, and a special thank you to Seven of Publishing Goblin for being an awesome, amazing Pintopia 2 partner.
Now that the campaign is officially over, the next step is collecting for your pledges so I can get you your pins! BackerKit will automatically try to charge your card, but keep an eye out if your card is declined - you should be able to fix it between now and May 2nd and still get your rewards. If you aren't able to fix it, you'll be dropped as a backer and no funds will be collected, but you should be able to hit my store if you still want to grab pins from me. I'll let you know when that is!
The designs are finalized, some things like backing cards have already been ordered, and emails are out to my manufacturers to we can get going right away. Hopefully this means we'll have pins sooner rather than later, but I'll keep you updated about anything if it changes!
For now, I have a poll going for sticker designs (you can opt in to having a sticker set, on me, if you pledged for a set) as either glow or glitter, and a poll for which wolf we should symbolically adopt from the wolf conservation center. You can vote on both and I'll close them out when it's time to create the stickers/adopt the wolf. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask in the comments and I'll do my best to answer them!
Thank you so so SO much for your support. I am so very humbled and grateful to have reached this unexpected number of backers and dollar amount, and I hope you'll be as thrilled with your pins as I hope to be when you get them.
Project Update: Vote for which wolf to adopt!
I would love to symbolically adopt a wolf. But there's so many to choose from! This is where I'll need your help. I listed a few different wolves that are available for symbolic adoption with their photos, it's up to you, the backers, to decide which one we should adopt!
Vote now on your favorite wolf in the poll area!
Hey, just wondering if we will be able to add add-ons in the pledge manager after the campaign has concluded? If so will the price be any different?
Project Update: New Add-on: Arrow Mini Pin
Plus, I wanted to roll out a third pin I very much wanted to try to make, and that pin is...
A mini arrow!
I just really love tiny filler pins because I always have space between pins on my board. This pin should be very small, but will (hopefully) have two posts, one on either end, and matches the style of the arrows in the other two pins. It'll also be the same color and also have glow! You can add this pin as an add-on to ANY tier for $5.
You will also find a few new add-ons in the add-on section including some discounted hard enamel singles which I have very limited stock on.
Again, I can't thank you enough for all your support thus far. I'm excited to give you our next update a little further into the campaign! Stay tuned!
Project Update: Funded!
That's all I can say! Thank you so much for so quickly bringing me to my funding goal! Never have I ever had my own project tick up so quickly and you must know how absolutely and truly grateful I am.
I have some surprises in store that I'll reveal sometime next week. Until then!
