I hope your last week and a half or so has gone well! I'm pleased to report that about 79% of you have submitted your surveys.
However, that does mean that a fairly large number of you (just over 50 people, not including POT backers) have not submitted your survey yet.
So this is your reminder to PLEASE FILL OUT YOUR SURVEY ASAP! This is necessary for me to get item counts so I know how many of each product I need to order.
If you don't fill out your survey, you won't get your items. It doesn't matter if your pledge went through successfully - if you don't submit your survey, you won't get your rewards. Your survey is where you fill out your shipping information so if you don't fill it out I quite literally cannot send you your package.
🚨The deadline to fill out your survey is Tuesday, March 31st.🚨
On March 31st, I will begin the process of locking orders and start coordinating with my manufacturer to order the pins. If you do not submit your survey by then, you risk potentially not getting your first choice of items from the campaign.
Please fill your survey out ASAP.
If you can't find your survey link:
Please check your spam folder. BackerKit sends a lot of emails, and people's email services love to mark them as spam a lot of the time.
Search your email for "HoloRaindrops" to make sure it didn't accidentally get archived or end up in your trash folder.
If it isn't in your inbox, spam, trash, or archive, you can retrieve your survey link here: Survey Recovery Link
Pay Over Time backers
If you are a Pay Over Time backer, you will not be able to fill out your survey until AFTER you pay all your installments in full. Don't worry about meeting the above deadline - You don't need to rush to complete your payments to get your survey in by March 31st.
I have processes on my end to account for POT backers in my item counts, so please don't worry that I will miss your order if you used POT.
Stellar Nebula Sample!
To close out this update with something a little more exciting, I wanted to share with you guys the photo of the Stellar Nebula sample I received from my manufacturer!
Notable changes I want to make
The yellow strip is far too bright and saturated, more of a lemon than the subtle warm yellow I was hoping for.
The brighter of the reds in the red area is a bit too bright for my liking as well so I am hoping we can get something a little less...Ronald McDonald haha.
The outermost dark layer is also too dark, it looks black instead of deep red, and I'm going to ask them to swirl the shimmer more to get more of the wispy nebula effect I want.
However, the blue areas and the purple strip look basically perfect to me, and overall, I'm really pleased with how this pin is shaping up!
Thanks for sticking with me through this update, I thought it was gonna be just a quick reminder message but it turned out a little longer than that. 😅
Before I let you go, please fill out your survey 😆
