Hello~

I want to apologize for the delay in sending out surveys to choose your pins. I just finished finals, and I have a few more academic obligations that will take most of my time for the next week or so. I haven't had a chance to put together the survey, but know that it will be done! Timeline-wise, I'll be able to start shipping pins mid-June:) Thank you for your understanding and patience!

In the meantime, samples have been made, and they're SO CUTE! If you missed out on any designs that you previously wanted, you'll still have a chance to add more pins in the survey.

Have a great rest of your day!

Hi y'all! 

So you've probably already received emails announcing the end of the campaign and Pintopia (hence why I waited a bit to send this message, haha). At the risk of sounding repetitive, I am so grateful for all your support with this campaign. All of our funky little rat guys are going to become a reality, and I can't thank y'all enough for believing in them!

So what comes next? I'm sending off the designs to the manufacturer as we speak! Samples and pictures of them should be made soon:) In the next couple of weeks, surveys will be sent out for you to choose your designs. This is where you'll also put in your address for shipping and pay for shipping as well. Note, though: you can change your shipping address until orders are locked! I'll make another announcement when that happens (it won't be until right before I start shipping). 

If all goes well, I should be able to start shipping in late May! Thank you once again, and I hope you have a lovely rest of your day~

All my best, 
Emily

Hi all! 

We're in the home stretch and I have some exciting news!!

Thanks for making this campaign great!! I'll be in contact soon~

Have a lovely day! - Emily

Hello!! Please vote on the polls for NEW color variants for some of the pins! For some pins, it didn't make a ton of sense to make color variants (like the capybara, or the white/gray pizza rats), so I didn't include those. 

Also! We are sooo close to 100 backers and free stickers for ALL backers! Please share the campaign if you can, or if you've been on the fence, now's your chance:) We're also juuuust about to unlock all the main pins, which is so exciting! 

Just a brief update for this one; I'll check in with you all soon~
Have a lovely day, 

Emily

Hello, hello! I'm a little late with this update, sorry!

I just wanted to pop in and say THANK YOU for your support for these little guys so far. 85 backers?! We're so close to unlocking a FREE sticker with every pledge (that happens at 100 backers!) so please share this campaign:)

Since we're well over 50 backers, we've unlocked new colorways for all the pins! I'll be doing polls on both Backerkit and Instagram to choose the new colors (backers get most weight; Instagram is mostly for fun and for a larger sample size). My instagram is @beanmilk.shop if you'd like to participate there, too!

That's all from me for now; I'll update you all again soon:)
