Update: A Big Thank You! | Fully Funded & All Stretch Goals Unlocked!
Wow, thank you SO much for an absolutely amazing first day of Pintopia 2026!!
Not only did we fully fund the campaign, but we also unlocked every single stretch goal mil...
Just dropping in with a quick update to let you all know all the surveys are officially out and should be in everyone's email! I will have the surveys open until we get closer to the fulfillment date (Looking at late May/June 2026) so you will be able to make any changes until then even if you filled it out previously. I'll be placing the big order next week!
UK backers ~ Instead of emailing you, I think I was able to set up the surveys where you can just fill out your order information there where I will create a custom invoice from there. You are also welcome to add anything else from my shop to the order, just let me know and I can give you an estimate of how much shipping will be.
As a reminder, surveys without completed payment or that aren't complete will NOT receive their rewards! So make please make sure everything is done before June. If you have any questions or concerns feel free and send me a message on backerkit or email me at [email protected] ~
I wanted to begin this update by saying how I really appreciate your patience while I wrapped up the new pin designs. It’s only been a week of small hiccups, but I’m happy to share that everything is now finished on my end and we’re officially back on track!
Last time, I teased just one of the new designs and today I’m so excited I get to reveal both "Moon Blossom" & "Night Bloom", two new enamel pin additions out of fifteen variants to choose from!
Moon Blossom Enamel Pin
Night Bloom Hard Enamel Pin
After learning more about Moonflowers, I felt they would make the perfect addition to this collection and I’m so happy with how they turned out! My first instinct was to go with my usual glow in the dark elements but after chatting with a friend who introduced me to the “Pearl Swirl” finish, I knew that was exactly what these pins needed! Even though it meant letting go of the glow, the pearlescent swirl adds such a dreamy direction and helps them stand out beautifully from the rest of the collection. I hope you love this choice as much as I do!
SURVEYS COMING SOON! You can expect surveys in your inbox within the next 1–2 days. They’ll be sent out in waves and will remain open until we’re closer to fulfillment time (ETA: May 2026) so you will have plenty of time to make your selections or any changes if needed.
UK BACKERS: I’ll be reaching out via email in the next few days to collect your order information, so please keep an eye out for those and respond before May! PRE-ORDER SHOP NOW OPEN! If you missed the campaign window, here is your second chance to grab pins & more at a discounted price! You can find the Pre-Order Shop HERE NEW ADD-ONS AVAILABLE SOON: I will be adding limited extra inventory that will be available to be added onto pledges in the surveys including guest artist items from my previous Lunar Jackalope campaigns with enamel pins byWisparia and JasmineTwil, and an acrylic charm by JmePaints!
"Cloudy Blue Moon" by JasmineTwil
"Starry Blue Moon" by Wisparia
"Sleepy Blue Moon" Acrylic Holographic Charm by JmePaints
Please do not place a pre-order store order if you already pledged to the campaign, instead keep an eye out for the survey where you will be able to make your selections and add/change items on your pledge!
If you have any questions or concerns, my inbox is always open at [email protected] ~ I'll pop back soon with another mini update once surveys start rolling out.
We’re in the final hours — and then the real fun begins!
As we count down to the end of the campaign, I have a few exciting updates to share with you.
Granny Smith Apple Jack – Final Reveal: In my previous update, I mentioned introducing a new variation of Apple Jack. After a few design refinements, I’m happy to share the final version: Granny Smith Apple Jack! This new variation will be available as an option in the pin selection list once surveys are sent out.
Poll Winner: Night Blooms is the winner!
I was especially excited about this option because I’ve been wanting to design something inspired by moonflowers on this one. While I’m still refining some final details, I wanted to give you a sneak peek of the direction I will be going for it~
The final pin will be approximately 2 inches, hard enamel with black nickel plating, and will feature glow-in-the-dark flowers. Just a few finishing touches left to perfect but this gives you an idea of what's to come!
Bonus Pins Now Available as Add-Ons!
You can now add the following pins to your pledge:
Early Worm – $7 USD
Snail Friend – $7 USD
Farmer Jack – $16 USD
If you missed out, this is your chance!
Bee & Moth from the Insect Mini Pin Set now glow in the dark!
Glow Upgrades!
Thanks to your incredible support, I’m excited to announce Mandrake & Bug mini pin sets will now glow in the dark!
I’m also working on another new pin design. I thought I had it fully planned out, but I just need a little more time to get it exactly right which I’ll be sharing it in the next update!
This past month has been incredibly exciting, and I truly can’t thank you enough for the support you’ve shown. This campaign not only brings this project to life, but also gives me the opportunity to invest more time in my art and explore new creative directions!
I’m so grateful you’re here for the journey. Let’s get this project rolling!!
I am absolutely blown away by the amount of love and support this campaign has received, I truly could not have asked for a better launch weekend 😱 We officially passed $10K, and with that level of funding means I can grow this collection even more than I originally imagined!!
To celebrate this milestone, I’m working on two brand-new pin designs that will be added as options once its finished! One of these was already in the works, but for the second, I’d love your help deciding. I’ve opened a poll to vote on the inspiration for the new pin, whichever option gets the most votes will be brought to life! Closes the night of 1/28, then I'll start working on the theme winner.
I’m also revisiting some color variations that I originally planned to include but scrapped at the last minute because I thought we had enough milestones already. Welp, jokes on me... You all proved me wrong 😅
One idea I keep coming back to is a Granny Smith-inspired version of “Apple Jack.” I’m currently torn between changing just the apples or updating the rabbit’s colors as well. I’ll need a couple of days to sit with it, but in the meantime I’d love to hear opinions!
Fun fact: It takes a lot of practice, but the most determined Harvest Moon Jackalopes gain the ability to enchant seeds that will grow into magical creatures!
New UK-only pledge level: If you’re based in the UK and wanted to support this campaign, you now can! I’ve opened a $1 UK-only reservation tier. Once the campaign ends, I’ll reach out for order details and create a custom Etsy listing. The remaining balance, shipping, and fees will be handled through Etsy. This tier also allows UK backers to receive any free rewards they’re eligible for!
I also wanted to clear up a bit of confusion regarding the tiers: no matter which tier you’re on, you’ll be able to mix and match standard enamel pins and mini pin sets from all unlocked designs!
Backerkit Exclusive Plushie Deal: Since I wasn’t able to give my plushies a proper launch, I decided to bring them over to BackerKit as well. The theme fit perfectly, and its actually what started as early inspiration to make a magic garden collection so it felt right to include them here with a $5 discount for backers to include in their orders. Limited quantities available with the discount (We actually hit the limit on the Mini Black Moon Jackalopes but I still have some available in my shop at regular price!)
New Sticker Add-ons! Stickers of “Flower Jack” and “Mushroom Jack” are now available as add-ons! There is also a sticker set option available to receive all 5 stickers with a discount💐
While early bird rewards have ended, there are still opportunities to earn other freebies throughout the campaign!
I teamed up with my buddy Wisparia for Pintopia this year! Backers who support both of our projects will receive bonus enamel pins of “Farmer Jack” and “Pump-kitty” from us. If you enjoy my work, I know you’ll love theirs too!
There’s also still a chance to earn a mini snail pin by supporting 3 or more projects under the Bloom & Burrow banner, plus a mini pin from each additional creator you support!
I truly cannot put into words how much this support means to me, most of it is coming out as screams!! I never imagined my little critters would receive this much love, and it means so much that I am able to share this world with you all. These characters have brought me a lot of comfort over the years and I hope they can bring the same to you too. I know we can all use it right now.
Thank you for being part of this journey with me 💙
