Hello everyone - I wanted to give a bit of an update with how shipping is going.

First, I received images from my manu of the remade Skelly & Witches Brew popsicle pins - the glow seems to be properly adhered this time, but I will see for sure once they reach me. They are just finishing up the 2-layer pin from Pastel Witchy, which had to be partially remade due to some color errors, but I am hopeful that those will be completed and on the way to me before the end of August.

 

Second, I have packed ALL orders as much as I am able to, and have changed things up slightly; instead of only locking addresses immediately before shipping, I am locking them as I prep all your items to ship. Only those whose orders have all their items pulled & ready to ship are being address locked. It may be up to 2 weeks before I get through that list of orders which are ready to be shipped and actually ship them all out. So, if your address has been locked & you haven't gotten updates since, that is why! The paragraph below explains a bit why I've decided to do things this way, this time. 

I hit an unforeseen snag while packing up the rest of the orders - I apparently did not order 2 of the stickers I meant to order (vaporwave v2 and Witches Brew) and so have placed and order for those; and when I ordered the freebie keychains, I missed a mistake in the proof which gave me 25 of the LEMON design and 5 of WATERMELON when it should have been the other way around. I feel extremely dumb for that one, and have placed a re-order for the proper amount of missing keychains.
If you chose a watermelon keychain, there is likely going to be a delay in your order until those reach me.
Pretty much everyone who ordered Pastel Witchy pins decided on combined shipping, however, so if you had a watermelon popsicle keychain, I simply noted that down and chose one of the delayed shipping orders to receive the second batch of freebies when they arrive where I could. The freebies will almost definitely arrive before all those pins do, so it shouldn't delay things any further!

Thank you all so much for your patience with the fulfillment of this campaign - I know this has been a bit rockier than my previous two campaigns, but you all have been immensely kind and understanding and I will be forever grateful for that.

I am struggling a bit with my health as a result of my bout of Mono earlier this year (I am assuming, anyway), mainly in the form of extreme fatigue, so that has also slowed things down considerably. I do still plan to launch an October campaign again this year, as well as potentially joining in on Pintopia 2026 if I am able to complete my itabag prototype by that time, but those may be the only 2 campaigns I plan for the immediate future as I re-evaluate my health and continue to figure out wtf is going on there. As much as I would love to do every single project I have in mind, it is just not feasible or fair for me to charge ahead with plans for those when I don't feel I will be able to properly fulfill all of them in a timely manner; if nothing else, I want to be sure that you all receive your rewards in a reasonable time frame, as that is the least I can do as a "thank you" for supporting me & my little business <3

As always, if you have any questions, concerns, comments, etc. you can reach out to me here, via e-mail ([email protected]), through social media, or on My facebook group or discord server! 

My goal is to have all orders shipped out before the launch of my next project, by the end of September. I am very hopeful I will beat this deadline regardless.

Sorry this update is a bit rambly - I just wanted to put something out so there wasn't another month of silence with no updates!
