Hello Everyone!

You can access the store HERE!

This storefront is intended for those who didn't get a chance to pledge, but are still interested in getting merch from the campaign. If you already have pledged and want to edit or add items, that will be available to do in the upcoming survey.

Preorders will ship immediately AFTER crowdfunding orders are fulfilled. This is the last chance to get these at items at a discount before they are in my Etsy store later this year. 

The survey is almost complete and just needs to be sent for review. This is my first time using the Backerkit survey builder, so there is somewhat of a learning curve and has taken a bit longer than expected.

Prior to everyone receiving the surveys, a Smoke Test set of surveys will be sent to about 5% of backers. The smoke test is to help identify and troubleshoot any potential issues with the surveys before they get sent to everyone. If you're one of the smoke test recipients, please let me know of any problems you encounter while completing it right away so I can resolve them. 

Once the problems are found and corrected, surveys will be sent to all backers. The faster they are completed, the faster I can get final counts and get you your orders.

There are still quite a few failed payments from pledges. Be sure to check your payment information as soon as possible so your pledge will go through. Tomorrow, May 2nd, is the last day for Backerkit to follow up on payments. There will also be a chance to adjust payment options at survey time, but please make sure you info is up-to-date so your pledge doesn't get rejected!

I'll be sure to send another update when surveys start to go out!

Thank you so much!
-Allison

 

Hello All!

Just a quick reminder to double-check that your payment went through for the Femme Forecast campaign! You should have received an email from Backerkit either confirming your payment went through, or showing that the payment has failed. If the payment has failed, please correct your payment ASAP so we can stay on schedule!

Please make sure the info for your payment is correct and that there is no issue with your card issuer or bank! Payments are due May 2nd, but if you still have a failed pledge payment you will still receive your survey and you can update your payment there as well.

Remember that surveys MUST be completed in order for you to receive your pins/merch!

Thanks everyone!

Have a great week!
-Allison

That's a wrap! 🎉

Thank you all so much for backing my campaign! You all made this project such a success and I am so grateful! ❤️

Here's what's going to happen next:

As you may already have noticed, Backerkit should already be charging you for your initial pledge. Please make sure that your payment information is up to date so your pledge can get processed! May 2nd is the last day Backerkit can correct failed payments, so make sure any changes to your payment are done by then! This initial payment also does not include your shipping fees.

In the next 2 weeks, you will all be getting your surveys to choose the designs you want, confirm any add-ons, and collect your shipping info.  Reminder: Surveys are not optional!  If you don't fill out the survey, I can't send you your rewards. Please fill it out as soon as possible after you receive it! Refunds will not be given to those who don't fill out the survey.

Once all surveys are received and the information is collected, production will begin and I can send you all a more firm timeline!

 You'll hear from me next once I start sending out the surveys and open up the Backerkit shop for any additional orders you may want to place! Be sure to keep an eye out in your emails for his information!

Thanks ❤️
Allison

 

 

Hello All!

We completely crushed the final Stretch Goal and Keychains are now available in the add-ons for $15 each!

I've also included more add-ons based on what has been unlocked so far like Clear Stickers based off the keychain designs:

As well as Reusable Sticker Books! These handy books allow you to store your stickers for later use with their sticker backing paper pages! These are designs from other projects, but they each come with a FREE Sticker Sheet to get you collection started! These books are available in the add-ons for $25 each!

You can also get the Sticker Sheet separately for $10! Its a 5"x7" kiss-cut sheet with 12 stickers!

And finally, since so much has been added thanks to you wonderful backers, I have added a final pledge tier called Full Forecast that offers all the pins PLUS a nice selection of the add-ons!

This tier has:

☆One of each main pin design
☆Both keychain designs
☆3 stickers of your choice (can be clear or the regular vinyl designs offered)
☆Early Bird holographic sticker
☆Postcard print
☆Sticker sheet
☆Mini pin set

All of these are now available together for $130.

There is a little over 24 hours left so be sure to check your pledges and add what you want! 

Just a reminder, you can still edit your existing order and add any add-on categories you desire.
After the campaign ends, you will get a survey to finalize and customize your order one last time.
You can either change your pledge level upwards OR add-on additional goodies to your order via survey.
Based on what all you select, shipping estimates may change due to the size and weight of what all you choose.
All items will be packaged and shipped at the same time.

Thank you all so much for supporting Femme Forecast! I am so glad you enjoy my work and have followed me throughout the development of this campaign! The support this project has garnered has blown away my expectations and I can't wait to share these goodies with you all!

❤️Allison

Hello Everyone!

Sorry for not giving any updates for the past week, but life has been busy lately, what with work, tax season, and my cat getting sick.

Between vet visits, I designed some new acrylic keychains that will be the next Stretch Goal!

Each keychain will be approx. 3" large and have a small charm attached! The umbrella on the left design will be completely clear and the sky on the right design will be a translucent gradient! I really like these calm weather designs and I hope you do too! These will be available as Add-Ons once the $6500 goal is reached!

In addition to this, I also made a new sticker option in the Add-Ons for sticker versions of the current unlocked pin designs!

Each sticker is 3" weather-resistant vinyl and can be bought individually for $5 each or a set of 5 for $20! You can also mix and match whatever designs you desire!

And since there are so many new things available, I also made a new pledge tier option if you want to have all the pins! This includes one of every design and one set of the mini pins!

If you want to upgrade your pledge, these are available together for $90!

ALSO if you want the collaboration pins, make sure you have backed both my campaign and Femme Fatale!

 

 

 

Once the campaign hits $5000, we will unlock the next stretch goal: A Set of Mini Enamel Pins!

The pins come as a set of 5 and are black nickel and gold metal with white enamel. They will be approx. .75" each on their largest side an will be available as an Add-On!

Honestly, we are super close to the goal and these will likely be available soon! Including the next stretch goal!

 

Hello Everyone!

In the previous update, I stated I would let backers know when the poll was closing, but since then the campaign has reached over $4000! Which means that is enough funding for all three pins to become available options!

But also here are the poll results! Overcast Night swept the ballot!:

If you want more pins in addition to your original pledge, you can either keep your existing pledge and add more via the "Add-Ons" page, or you can change your existing pledge to a higher tier to add more pins to your order!

Speaking of Add-Ons, I have added a couple of extra options, like Locking Backs and this Postcard Print:

This postcard print is free for all backers who pledge for 3 or more pins as an extra Thank You for your support! If you just want the card, it is available in the "Add-Ons" tab.

In addition to this, I will be adding more Stretch Goals, with the upcoming goals to be a Mini Pin Set and Acrylic Keychains! Details on these goals will be sent soon! You can also comment what types of Stretch Goal rewards you are interested in!

Thank you everyone for you support!
-Allison

All of the base pins: Rain, Sun, Fog, and Storm; have been fully funded! 🎉

I am so amazed that this project was such a success in under 24 hours!

Thanks to everyone who made this possible! Next is the Stretch Goal - another design!

The first Stretch Goal was funded overnight, which makes all my planned initial goals fully funded! Since it happened so quickly, I don't have the poll ready yet, but I will be sharing it with you all soon!

There will be three designs to vote on and the design with the most votes will be the one that was unlocked at the $2500 Stretch Goal. The remaining two designs will be unlocked as further Stretch Goals!

Thank you all for participating and I will be sending the poll out soon!

The poll is now up to vote on the pin design that was unlocked when the campaign reached the First Stretch Goal!

There are three options to vote on:

✦ WIND- Ethereal and ever-active, Wind is a gold plated hard enamel pin with bold, natural colors.

✦ SNOW- Beautiful and cold, Snow is a black nickel plated hard enamel pin with cool blue and white enamel coloring.

✦ OVERCAST NIGHT- Restless and troubled, Overcast Night is a gold plated hard enamel pin with soft gray and blue enamel coloring.

All of these will be listed as Stretch Goals, so vote for the design you want locked immediately!

The poll is open until most of the backers have voted and I will send a reminder to vote before closing.

I look forward to seeing which one wins!

🎊Fog pin is unlocked!!🎊
 

I am so amazed by the interest my pins have garnered in the past few hours! 3 tiers are already unlocked!

Thank you so much for the support! Looking forward to unlocking the rest!

🎊Thank you to all the Backers so far! We met the initial funding goal!🎊

Rain is officially unlocked and this project is underway!

Thanks again!
