The title of this update gives away the big news I have to shareβ¦
πππ We are officially DONE WITH FULFILLMENT! πππ
(We technically finished packing orders over a month ago, but I promptly went into rest & recoup mode for the past few weeks!)
With that, the campaign has officially come full circle.. from the very first post I shared in 2024, to sending out the very last pre-order in 2026! In total, we shipped out 1,872 orders, with a final count of 3,122 plush. Thatβs such an amazing feat, especially considering this was our first campaign! Iβm still in awe of the sheer amount of love, support, and understanding youβve all shown me over the past 18 months.
π Iβve already said it a billion times, but I have to say it once again: thank you all SO MUCH for everything!!!!! π
Thank you for the support, the excitement, the compassion, and yes, even the critiques. You all helped me through one of the most amazing (and challenging) times of my life, and Iβm so grateful that you each get to carry a little piece of that with you now. Just know that I treated every single one of your critters with the utmost care, and most importantly, so much love, before sending them out. I truly hope thatβs something you can feel!
I also want to take a moment to remind you that you are capable of achieving great things too! No matter how low, hurt, or lost you may feel, there will always be a glimmer of hope, strength, and potential within you! And In my experience, some of the best ideas come when weβre at our lowest, and amazing things can grow from even the darkest places. So as a final note, I encourage you to listen to that little spark inside you, nurture it, and see where it leads you! π
π Our shop will open this Friday (March 27th) at 4pm EDT / 12pm PDT! π
If you loved your first Critters and want to add more to your collection (or if you missed out on the campaign) this will be your chance to pick up anything you missed! This shop opening will include everything from the campaign plus discounted B-grades.
And as a heads up, going forward weβve made slight pricing changes! Standard-grade plush will now be $50, and B-grade plush will be $40. Some of the clothing has increased in price as well, though it varies from piece to piece. Our shop platform also accepts Affirm, Klarna, and Afterpay, so you can place larger orders with a payment plan if needed!
At this time, we are still only shipping to North American countries. Unfortunately, collecting and remitting taxes for the UK, EU, and other countries has been difficult to set up, so weβve decided to open an Etsy shop for the time being. Etsy isnβt my first choice as a platform, but the way it streamlines tax collection for both the seller and buyer is something we need to take advantage of for now. Iβm currently expecting the Etsy shop to be up around mid-April, so you can look forward to it opening around then! π
π That's all for now!
