We’ve officially hit the last 24 hours of Pinned & Preserved! 🪲🦋 I've got some last minute announcements! :)
🪲 Scarab Beetle is Unlocked!
The Egyptian Scarab Beetle is one of my absolute favorite insects, and I couldn’t let the campaign end without it! Even though we've been teetering back and forth between unlocking this little guy, I’ll be self-funding the difference so it’s officially unlocked for everyone! 🎉 I can’t wait to bring this design to life, I'm almost done with the artwork <3
🧵 New Add-On: Embroidered Patches
In the last poll, the majority of you voted YES to embroidered insect patches!! So I went ahead and added them as a brand-new Add-on at the top of the shop~ These will be larger patches to show off the detail in the embroidery, perfect for jackets and bags <3 I'll be getting samples made soon

4 main patch designs, comment if you want another insect made as a patch <3

🦋 A Note to Higher Tier Backers:
If you pledged for a larger tier with more pins than what was unlocked and still want to keep your pledge, you’ll have two options:
Choose multiples of your favorite unlocked designs -or-
Receive a credit to shop in the Survey Add-On Shop to use toward other pins, mini pins, or merch when surveys go out ---> more insect pins might unlock in the Survey Add-on shop
If you're in one of these tiers and there is a specific pin you wanted to see unlocked, please comment here because I still might be able to self-fund some of these extra pin designs + raise funds later in the Survey Shop to get more of these little guys unlocked together 💖 (~Looking to self-fund that Orchid Mantis~ 👀🌸)
Thank you so much for all the amazing support for Backerkit's Super League of Science event and for helping make this Entomology pin series possible!! 🥰🙏🏼 Let's finish this campaign strong together!! Don't forget to share the campaign with your friends for the last 24 hours!! 💪🏼
