Project Update: Pin Boards + Fulfillment
We officially have everything in-hand to begin fulfillment!
Please keep these important notes in mind:
- There are many of you and very few of us. Please be patient <3
- Your tracking number will not update right away. Shipping labels are processed throughout the week and orders packaged on weekends.
- I'll update sporadically with fulfillment updates.
- If you don't have a tracking number yet, please don't panic. Please only panic if you see an update stating that shipping is complete. :)
- We are past the point where BackerKit auto retries your failed payment. If your payment has failed, please correct it. Otherwise you won't get your stuff. Any outstanding pledges will be considered donations once the project is closed.
- The project will close one week after I post the "all done" update.
I think that's everything for now! <3

Project Update: Pins are here! + Board Progress + New Project
Hey backers!
I'm happy to announce pins are here!!
And production on pin boards is wrapping up!
We're still on track to start fulfillment this August 🎉
COMING SOON
We're taking part in a summer sale that launches later this month. If you remember the Holiday Market, it'll run like that. These are in-stock items being sold at clearance prices (because I need the space!). Unlike the Holiday Market, we're set up for EU shipping and will be shipping internationally!
Full disclosure: Because we are still fulfilling this campaign, the Spirits in the Waves pin set will not be available for purchase. (The preorder store is still open for that.) However, there's a handful of b-grade pins that are just not good enough to be shipped to y'all. This small pile of pins is being offered during the sale as mystery b-grades. Just being transparent so there's no confusion here.
Latest Pin Set
August will see the launch of "Pocket Change Pins." This is a group collab all about mini pins! You won't find anything larger than 1" here. :D
I'm working on a tiny lil farmer's market, and I hope y'all will check it out :)
I think that's everything for now!
Thank you for your continued patience! I look forward to getting these pins out to y'all. :D

Project Update: Pins are done! [Photos inside]
Pins have been completed, and I've got photos to show off!
These haven't been shipped yet, but should ship soon! With that in mind, here's an updated timeline :)
- Now - Pins are finished and should ship to me soon!
- Mid/Late June - I should have pins in-hand
- July - Pin grading. Please understand just how many pins are going to be shipped to me. It's going to take a couple weeks to go through them all and ensure all is accounted for/nothing damaged, ect.
- August - Shipping will begin.
- October - Hopefully be done shipping.
This timeline pushes fulfillment to the end of summer/fall, which means we're not competing with convention/pride season! So I'm hoping for a smooth fulfillment. Due to the sheer amount of pins/backers, it will still take a couple months to pack and ship all the orders. Your continued patience is greatly appreciated <3
Okay, that's all. Photo time!

Project Update: Production Update + New Project Launching Soon!
Hey backers!!
I just got an update from the factory 🎉
I don't have any completed photos yet, but these production photos are looking really promising! I'm stoked about that octopus. Look what a heckin chonker he is!
This was a huge order, so I don't anticipate seeing pins in-hand for a couple months yet. I can spy some raw rays in the background of the owl photo, but we know this isn't all the designs. 😆 So there's still much work to be done.
What's on the horizon?
I've already begun work sketching out designs for Pintopia 2027. If you're a Pokemon fan, you have an excellent chance at guessing what next year's theme will be. 👀
I'm also launching my first ita bag tomorrow!
It's an ita dice bag, inspired by a d4. And it comes with an ita portfolio (think: an elevated traperkeeper), that's great for work, school, or more tabletop shenanigans.

Project Update: Pledge Manager Completion Update
Pledge manager is currently sitting at 86% completed. If we can bump that to 90%, I can lock orders and get production started.
Please remember that filling out your reward survey is how you get your stuff! This includes giving me a shipping address and paying for shipping :)
I will be over-ordering each pin - to varying degrees - so it's unlikely a pin won't be available if you fill out your reward survey late, but it's still a chance for in-stock or specialty items. (ie if you want a pin board, fill out your survey right now, I won't be over-ordering these)
My hope is to have pins in production next week, backers willing. 🙏
