Hello! Popping in for an update! So sorry for the wait sharing information, starting the bulk order got delayed a bit because of delays with receiving the survey answers from Backerkit in addition to delays from manufacturers reopening from this year's Spring Festival. We're about a month behind schedule but all of the bags, wristlets, and wallets are in progress!
Before starting the bulk order, I was doing some swatch testing with what to call "Red" and what to call "Wine" and what to call "Bordeaux" to get a nice range of different reds that could be coordinated with. I felt my initial swatch was not bright enough so I opted to choose a brighter Red so there would be more difference between "Red" and "Wine", the brighter "Red" can be seen below with all the other card shapes.
Blue and Purple needed to be custom painted and there was no existing color swatches from my collection that were a good enough match. So it took a bit more time for my bag manufacturer to receive the custom colors from the leather company. Currently, pieces have been cut and are just waiting for assembly!
Before the bulk, I felt the corners were just slightlyyy too pointy and kept bumping into things while wearing the bag so we tested out rounding them out just a bit, I was happy with the new shape so here's an idea of the update!
Sorry again for the delays! We are anticipating the bags should be completed sometime in July instead!
Hello! Just wanted to pop in for a quick reminder to answer your surveys for the Poker Bag Collection! The last of the payment plans should have been completed now so if you did Pay Over Time, you should have now receive the Backerkit survey for your pledge selection! Please make sure to contact me if you never received an email for the survey. Once more answers come in, I will proceed with locking orders for the final inventory count so we can go right into production once the bag manufacturer reopens from the holidays. Thanks! :)
Hello hello! I wanted to share that I've officially sent out the Backerkit surveys! Please answer them when you can as it'll help me gauge how many of each colorway to order. Reminder that if you chose Pay Over Time, you will not receive the Backerkit survey until the payment plan is completed. Once completed, the survey will be sent automatically to you! Because of the holidays and such, there's still lots of time to answer so I'll post another update when it's getting time for me to lock the quantities for the bulk order. Any questions, let me know, thank you! :)
Good morning! Wanted to pop in for a quick update!
Backerkit has started charging pledges, please make sure to check that your payment information is correct if you'd still like to receive your pledge rewards. If Backerkit isn't able to successfully charge you, your pledge will unfortunately be marked as cancelled so please take the time to check that your information is all correct.
People who chose Pay Over Time, this first charge is the the first installment and then portions of the remaining balance will be charged once every following month until the payment plan is completed.
Backerkit takes about 2 weeks of trying all the payment methods for the campaign funds and then will transfer the remainder to me after their fees & payment processing fees. After that happens, I can begin to send the survey to record everyone's colorway and item options.
Thank you for answering the poll regarding colorways! Spade - Black x Gold & Spade - Black x Blue were incredibly close in votes so I've decided to add both of them! Both options will be available in the survey once that is sent out.
That's it for this update, any questions, please let me know! Thank you!

To celebrate reaching the initial goal, I've decided to add another colorway anyway! But which one is up to you guys! Of the 4 stretch goal colorways, which one would you love the option to have more?
The options are:

We have just a little over an hour left until the crowdfund completes so I just want to give one more sincere thank you. Even when I doubt myself, I've learned that I have many people rooting for me, thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Hello! Just popping in for an update, we're in the last 4 days of the campaign with around 70% left to go towards the goal! This is around $2,600 so I'm hoping we'll get there by the end! Thank you so much to everyone who has supported for far, even if we don't make the goal, I sincerely appreciate the interest in my design! Please keep sharing if you're able to, thank you! :)
