Bottled Botanicals is a set of mini enamel pins featuring popular house plants inside glass bottles. Whether you're a full-on botanist or just think plants look neat, this pin set is perfect for anyone who loves our leafy little friends!
(And if you have a black thumb, worry not - these particular specimens don't need to be tended to! 😉)
If you're new to BackerKit or crowdfunding in general and you're not sure how this all works, head on over to the FAQ pageto read more!
Bottled Botanicals is a set of 10 mini enamel pins. Each one measures 1" on its longest side and is made with gold plating and hard enamel. Some pins have printed layers on them to portray the beautiful colorizations on these plants.

I am so excited to once again be collaborating with Foxpirate's Art for this campaign! Foxpirate is the creator of Kneady Bakery. We've worked together to make these two exclusive pin designs inspired by each other's campaigns! Backers who pledge for both my campaign and Foxpirate's Kneady Bakery campaign will receive both of the above pins for free.
How it works:
Pledge for Bottled Botanicals at any physical tier.Support tier backers do not qualify.
Pledge for Foxpirate'sKneady Bakerycampaign. Please see his campaign for any additional info and/or qualifications.
Receive each of the above pins for free - as long as both projects reach their funding goal!
Returning Backers will get the below Anthurium pin for free. Thanks for being so loyal! The Anthurium is available as an add-on, but will NOT be included in the full set "Plant Hoarder" tier. It must be added on separately.
Those who purchase the "Plant Hoarder" full set will receive the exclusive Lucky Bamboo pin for free. Lucky Bamboo IS NOT available as an add-on, and can only be earned by purchasing the full set.
Bottled Botanicals is thrilled to be a part of Pocket Change Pins! Pocket Change Pins is a collection of enamel pin campaigns celebrating the delight of mini pins that are all 1" or under.

The above fees are an estimated range of cost and could fall anywhere between the smallest and largest number for your country. The final shipping cost for your package is based on the final package weight.
Timeline:
August 6: Project launches
August 20: Project ends
~Late August: Post-campaign surveys are sent
~Mid-Late September: Survey deadline
~October: Begin putting orders in for all campaign merch
~March 2027: Receive items, quality checking, other fulfillment processing
~April 2027: Start shipping out rewards
These dates are estimates and are subject to change at any time. If delays occur, it's typically due to manufacturing delays and I will relay all delays & timeline changes to backers through campaign updates.
For pledges that cost over $150, backers have the option to select Pay Over Time to pay for their pledge in 4 equal interest-free payments over the course of 4 months, instead of it all in one lump sum.
Please note the following if you select Pay Over Time:
Your rewards will not ship unless you have paid for all 4 of your payments in full.
Partial payments are not eligible for a refund. For more information on refunds, please check the disclaimers section or the FAQ.
You will not be eligible to fill out your official survey until you've paid for your pledge in full. Once you pay in full, you'll receive a survey invite automatically within 48 hours.
POT backers may receive a pre-survey Google form so I can get a better estimate of item counts as soon as possible after the campaign ends. You will still have to fill out your official survey once you receive it.
Notes about the pre-survey: If you don't fill out your pre-survey form, your order may not make it into my item counts; in addition, if you make different selections on your official BackerKit Survey from what you put in you pre-survey form, you may not receive your first choice of items and I may ask you to make a different selection.
Please do not use Pay Over Time to pay for your pledge if you have issues with any of the above notes.
Hey I'm Rain! I'm the creator of Bottled Botanicals. I started collecting house plants during the first year of the COVID outbreak and I've loved them ever since! Usually, I'm known for drawing pretty boys in the form of pins, prints, stickers and more, so this campaign is a little different from my usual. As you may have seen, I still managed to sneak a pretty boy in anyway ;)
I had a wonderful time making these pins, and I hope you like them too!
I have 7+ years of experience crowdfunding pins, first through Kickstarter and now BackerKit. I promise I will deliver you gorgeous pins!
***By pledging to this campaign, you are agreeing to ALL of the below disclaimers.***
Refunds & Exchanges
Refunds must be requested within 30 days after the campaign's end date of August 20, 2026. I will not administer any refunds after this cutoff.
Backers are given ample time to make decisions while the survey is active. Once your order is locked in, I will not issue any refunds. If your order is locked but you want to make a change to your survey choices, please reach out to me at [email protected].
Once survey orders have been charged, I will not issue any refunds or facilitate any exchanges/changes to your order.
If your rewards arrive damaged during transit, please reach out to me with photos of the damage and we'll work out a solution.
Surveys
Surveys will be sent out after the campaign's completion. Surveys are mandatory - this is where you will choose which rewards you want to receive and also where you will submit your shipping information. If I do not receive a survey response, I cannot send your rewards.
Support tier backers won't receive a survey.
Forfeiture of rewards
Ample time is given for backers to submit their surveys to receive their rewards. If I do not receive a survey response from you by the time shipping is complete, you will forfeit your pledge and your rewards. I will not fulfill or refund forfeited rewards after the posted completion date.
Import fees & tariffs
All backers will be financially responsible for any potential import fees/taxes/duties upon reception of their package.
I will not issue any refunds for international backers who don't wish to pay fees/taxes/duties/tariffs when they receive their package.
Freebies, Cross-collab, & group incentive qualifications
Backers must pledge for a physical tier to qualify to receive any freebie incentive items. Backers who pledge for the $1 support tier will not qualify to receive any freebie incentive items.
Grading
All pins are graded for quality assurance. Please note that all pins are handmade items and often have minor cosmetic imperfections (even those of A/Standard grade).
A Grade/Standard grade imperfections include but are not limited to:
minor surface scuffing on the enamel or metal plating
very small specs of dust in unnoticeable areas
minor/unnoticeable enamel underfill
minor/unnoticeable air bubbles
small specs of dust in soft enamel pins
small air bubbles in epoxy coating on pins that have it
slightly offset screenprinting on pins that have it
Color & Size
It is vital to understand that the images in this campaign are NOT photographs, but artist mockups of the pin designs. Due to manufacturing constraints, differences in colors of monitors between computers/phones/tablets etc, there will be variations between the images in the campaign and the final product.
Sometimes, I will need to make small changes to the pin designs based on manufacturer requirements. All changes will be conveyed to backers through updates.
Repeat Failed Backers
It has come to my attention that there are a few backers who repeatedly back my campaigns and then fail to pay.
Going forward, I will be keeping track of these backers and any backer who backs & fails to pay for 3 subsequent campaigns will be banned from participating in any of my future projects without exception.
Risks & Challenges
I have 7+ years of experience with making enamel pins so I don't expect there to be many issues, however there's always the possibility that unexpected delays can occur due to manufacturer mistakes, shipping delays, and/or quality control issues.
There is also the possibility that I may have to make small tweaks to the designs to maintain the integrity of the pins but there should be no major changes in overall design. I will always convey any issues that come up with backers through the updates section.
If I receive the pins and a design has a consistent flaw across majority of the pins, it will be considered standard grade for that batch.
If the flaw is something I consider major, however, I may have to reorder flawed pins which will cause shipping out rewards to be delayed. All this will be conveyed through post-campaign updates.
There is also the possibility that not all pin designs get funded. If this happens please understand that only the unlocked designs & items will be available as rewards. In the case the project does not get funded at all, you will not be charged and the pins will not be made.
PLEASE REMEMBER, I am only one person running everything, and sometimes Life Happens™️. Unexpected personal emergencies or other life happenings can come up and cause delays, so please understand that! Should any delays occur, I will communicate everything through post-campaign updates.
I will also give you all a gentle reminder that I am a real human being with feelings, so please try to remain kind & constructive with your communications with me. If someone becomes hateful in their communications with me, their pledge will be canceled & they will not be allowed to participate in any of my future campaigns.
