Hi backers! 

Lots of pretty pictures for you today. The sticker samples arrived recently, and I have a selection of pin photos from the factory.

Please keep in mind that some of the lighting isn't the greatest, and the colors will vary a little in the photos. However, you can get a very good sense of how the pins are coming along! I'm so excited for how these designs are shaping up. :)

The bright green makes me wish I used glow-in-the-dark on more designs! Especially the two owl faces.

These pictures feature the cat and salamander before buffing, plating, and UV printing—so please keep in mind they aren't done and that's why the ink is overflowing.

I purchased a sample of these stickers, and they are lovely! These stickers are super glossy, sturdy vinyl.

The colors on everything are beautiful, but the copper designs on the "initial collection" sticker sheet are a bit too light. I will darken the copper lines before bulk printing so these designs are easier to see. Other than that, I love how these turned out.

That's all for now! I'll keep you updated as things move along, but everything appears to still be on schedule for a July-August fulfillment. :) As said before, while orders are locked, addresses can still be updated until after I receive the pins—likely sometime in early July. 

Pay-over-time folks should have also received their surveys this month after final payment. Let me know if you have any questions or issues with your surveys.

Until next time!
