I'm sneaking in one final update before the campaign ends in just ~5 hours. I have updated information regarding the zipper pull and one more surprise announcement!
Zipper Pull Add-On
I FINALLY got a quote for this from my manufacturer, so I was able to figure out a cost for the zipper pull.
A few notes about (VERY MINOR) changes to the zipper pull:
the moon dangle is going to be a stock 3D charm item that the manufacturer has (making my own was going to make the mold fee WAY too expensive and wouldn't have been fully 3D). The one they have in stock is 1.4cm tall, which is a bit big, but that's what they have, as far as I have been told by them.
Because of the size of the moon charm, it threw off the scale with the moth being only .75", so I have decided to increase the moth to 1" instead of .75".
This will increase the overall size of the zipper charm and the overall dangle length will probably be somewhere around 2", by my guesses.
Someone mentioned wanting a tweak to the tails so they would be going around the ring instead. I just wanted to add a quick note here that I am still considering this very small design tweak. I probably won't change it until I know how big the connection ring needs to be, but once I do, I'll post an update to the design :)
Here's a new mock-up of the zipper pull charm with the updated look for the moon dangle:
Based on the going prices for this type of item, I've decided to price it at $15. You can add the zipper charm to your order now through the add-on section on the campaign page, or it's also fine to wait until you get your survey and add it that way!
New Freebie - Luna Moth Sticker
As thanks & celebration for getting the campaign to 300 backers, I've decided to make a gold foil sticker version of the luna moth zipper pull artwork that will be included with all physical orders for free! Thanks so much for your amazing support on this campaign! 🫶
That's all for this update, though you'll probably hear from me again either later today or tomorrow after the campaign is done with more information about what comes next!
