Project Update: ‼️💖Fulfillment Update💖‼️
Hello Backerkit!
We have just completed labeling a load of packages for this week that are due to be sent out tomorrow meaning that nearly all of the Periodic Pinup orders will have been completed! There were a couple snags on the way though;
- We realized that the add-on stretchgoal for Astatine hadn't been unlocked, but those of you who had added it to your order had still been charged for it. We reached out to the backerkit team to sort this out and luckily it was resolved quickly! - for the 9 of you that had been charged for a pin that was not unlocked you have now been refunded the amount for those pins which should reflect in your accounts within 5-10 business days. We apologize for this error in the meantime, we're new to handling stretchgoals in that way and will be mindful to look out for that issue in the future 😅
- We ran out of pin banners too soon during fulfillment and did not have enough to complete all of the orders of people who wanted them. Somewhere along the line a counting error must have been made causing us to order the wrong amount from our manufacturer... We plan to get that banner ordered in immediately, but we will reach out through email to the one person that this issue ended up affecting so that we can come to a satisfying resolution to the error.
That means for all but one of you, your order should be on it's way by tomorrow evening, destined to make it's way to home. When that happens you'll get a tracking number emailed to you so that you can be ready for when it arrives! ;>
Stay adventurous!

Project Update: ‼️💖It Begins💖‼️
Hello Backerkit!
Last weekend we received the final piece of Periodic Pinups on our doorstep, so we are now ready to begin fulfillment. Notably we are in the midst of the Summer Sale and research for an upcoming campaign, but with the size of this campaign in addition to the pins being pre-pinned to their backing cards I feel comfortable saying that I think these orders can all be shipped out by this upcoming weekend.
As per usual I'll do my best to send out updates of progress on shipping days in addition to notifications to any hurdles that may come our way. As of this moment we start with 80 orders to be fulfilled with a estimated combined weight of 29.18lbs
That's all for now,
Stay adventurous!

Project Update: ‼️💖End of Campaign and Contest Winners💖‼️
Hello Backerkit!
The Periodic Pinups campaign has officially come to an end with survey's scheduled to come out next Monday on the 9th which will be due two weeks later on the 23rd!
A sincere thank you is in order to everyone who pledged as well as anyone who shared their suggestions. Support for our projects is what allows them to become reality, but critique is how we grow and improve our craft. Needless to say none of what we do would be possible without you guys! :3
Now on to competition winners;
Periodic Scrabble!
Congratulations to Farifaxleasee! Your clever entry of "Xenonnoerphs" (Xe, No, N, No, Er, P, Hs) was found to be the majority favorite with 40% of the votes! your entry had seven unique atomic symbols meaning you are due to receive an extra seven minipins to your order! Since we hadn't unlocked all of the minipins from your entry we will contact you over email to hash out the details ;>
Brains Brawn and Bod!
Artemis H is the winner with their wonderful fun fact about how copper is antimicrobial! We weren't the only ones who found this fact fun as you won with 45% of the vote! Your fun fact being about copper means you would have won a free Copper pinup with your order, but because Copper was not unlocked we will contact you over email to arrange a suitable replacement ;>
Stay Adventurous!

Project Update: 💖Anouncing the Competitions💖 & 💔Unfortunate News💔
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today we have news shared at the end of this update that is very important to see for anyone that has pledged for this campaign or is interested in collecting the entire periodic table. If that sounds like you please don't miss it!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------CritCreations---
Hello Backerkit!
In addition to the news mentioned above we're also happy to announce that the polls for this campaign's competitions are now live! Our selected nominees standing a good chance to win free goodies in addition to their pledge :D
As a quick reminder the challenges were Periodic Scrabble and Brains, Brawn, and Bod
The goal of periodic scrabble was to create a funny phrase or wacky word using only the atomic symbols of the elementals featured in this campaign! It was not required that entries be in English or even correctly spelled, only that they be as fun as possible. The chosen nominees and their phrases are;
- Ari the Madlad - "Ten tender techs!" (Te, N, Te, Nd, Er, Te, C, Hs)
A title given to some of the elementals in this campaign by Ari because many of them are used in engineering.
- Fairfaxleasee - "Xenonnoerphs" (Xe, No, N, No, Er, P, Hs)
An impressively close spelling of "Xenomorphs", the main antagonist from the Alien franchise.
- Kyle Walker - "Bnana cup!" (B, Na, Na, Cu, P)
A close spelling of "Banana cup" which is presumably a cup full of bananas.
- Sirius - "Catnap!" (C, At, Na, P)
Defined as; "a short, light sleep; a doze" by Oxford Languages.
- TheChaomancer - "Snog!" (Sn, Og)
Defined as; "an act or spell of amorous kissing and caressing" by Oxford Languages.

The goal of Brains Brawn and Bod was to share a fun fact about one of the elements featured in this campaign! Additionally, all verifiable user-submitted facts will soon be added to the campaign page with credits to the user for their researching efforts. Though, the chosen nominees and their facts are;
- Artemis H shares with us;
"Ever since I learned it, I've been fascinated with the fact that copper is actually antimicrobial! From what i understand, this happens because enzymes on a bacterium's surface react with the copper, and form toxic radicals and things along those lines, leading to a vanishingly low survival rate over long periods of time!" - Fairfaxleasee shares with us;
"Oganesson is classified as a noble gas but is (likely) solid at room temperature."
- The Chaomancer shares with us;
'Sodium, an alkali metal, can be found in many numerous minerals as well as animals(humans included). Sodium is quite essential in fact for animals, both as a nutrient(Sodium Chloride, NaCl) as well as being a major cation in the ECF (extracellular fluid). It even aids in the firing of nerve impulses through the action potential.process. In conclusion, it's good to be a little salty now and then 😁'

Lastly, for the unfortunate news: While we have had a good deal of fun making this campaign, it has not seen as much traction as we had hoped to see. Having unlocked 5 of the 20 pinups, the Periodic Pinup series could last us into 2050 to complete the whole set of the periodic table.
That is why as customer-first creators we want to let you know that as of this moment we do not plan to release future campaigns for this series. Meaning if you backed this campaign so that you could collect the entire periodic table, then I urge you to reconsider your pledge.
We wanted to be completely and wholly transparent with you all and tell you that we don't know when or if this series will continue and that if it does we can't promise that it will be in the same matching style as this campaign.
Thank you for your attention, and I'm sorry if you found this news disappointing.
Stay adventurous
