Since the campaign has ended and we officially transitioned to the survey phase, I just wanted to check in with everyone and share some information about what's going on behind the scenes. ✨
As you all know, we have reached the 2.000€ mark with the campaign and thus, unlocked all designs for production (THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!) 🥹💗 While the data for your individual orders are being collected through the survey system, the design files are being finalized to be submitted to the manufacturers as soon as possible (aka as soon as all surveys have been filled out ☺️) //Also, HUGE SHOUTOUT to my dearest Bunny&Tea for being the greatest help in setting up vector files. QwQ You are the best~!!💖//
That being said, production is getting closer and closer, as we are currently at a survey completion rate of 86%!💕 Only 10 people are missing at this point in time, so I hope this update might reach you out there as a small reminder to check our inbox (and potentially spam.....although I hope it didn't end up there haha) :3
I am still in utter disbelief that the campaign has grown the way it did and feel very excited about starting production soon 😭 Once again, thank you so much to everyone of you out there making all of this possible💖
Hope to hit you with a new update soon~! Until then,
With the first week since launch being over and having a little less than two weeks left on the campaign, I wanted to give you guys another update on the state of everything. :3
As most of you probably already noticed, the additional stretch goal, introducing Cupcakeshark and Matchashark has been added!Tiers that included a full set of stickers and/or pins have been altered to include the new designs as well, which means that those tiers will now include 10 instead of 8 designs (of course, the price point has NOT changed, so backers who support such tiers will simply get more rewards to honor the "whole menu" promise 💖)
Besides that, the order of add-ons I had already placed at the start of this campaign, has arrived~! 🎉🥳🎉 Since there's now two more designs, I will have to include their magnet versions in the later order with the stickers, BUT as far as this recent order goes, the quality of the products is VERY SATISFYING 😍
The washi tape is very durable and doesn't tear easily when pulling it off the roll. It's opacity is also holding up well (I think you can maybe see approx. 30% of what's underneath~), so overall it's a fun experience to use it 💕
As for the sticky notes, I am very happy with their hold and print quality! Sometimes, when I buy sticky notes for myself, the glue ends up being a little weird and either doesn't stick at all or leaves a sticky film on the next note on the pad, but testing this product has left me with a very positive feeling. The notes stick well to other matte surfaces, yet don't leave a weird sticky film on the pad. The paper itself is also not too thin, so writing on it feels pretty natural~☺️
But my favorite new arrival by far has got to be the magnets! Having an added epoxy layer on top, the magnets feel very sturdy, yet elegant as their edges are rounding off nicely. Besides the decorative aspect, their hold is actually also pretty good! I tested their strength by adding more and more sheets of copy paper until they eventually were dragged down on my fridge and found out they can hold 5-6 layers of copy paper very well! (Nothing breaks my heart more than having magnets that don't magnet as they should, so rest assured these guys do their job~💖)
So yeah! In case you were wondering what the products would be like, this is what I can share with you from personal testing. The next step will be adding matching product safety labels to each one of them, so they can be shipped off properly after the campaign ends~💕
Once again, I'm sending a huge thanks to all my lovely backers, followers and everyone who showed support to make this launch happen! You are simply the best!!💖( And who knows, maybe there will be another special freebie unlocked when we hit 100 backers~)
I am very excited to share with you that the Mehshark Food Pin Series hassuccessfully launched and already reached it's initial funding goal in less than 9 hours!!! 🎉🥳🎉
As the early bird discount & bonus has now come to an end, both the first AND second stretch goal have already been unlocked and we're now headed towards the last originally planned stretch goal!!!🎉 (which I didn't even expect to happen so soon waaah!! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT, EVERYONE!!! 😭💖😭💖)
This is my very first crowdfunding project, so receiving such an overwhelmingly positive feedback from everyone makes me feel truly thankful for each and everyone of you showing love to my art and the Mehshark 🥹💗
Since there's still lots of time, yet only one stretch goal left to unlock, I will start working on another additional stretch goal, adding two new Mehshark food pin designs to the menu~!! Hopefully, they will be ready and available by the time you guys burn through the last stretch goal (which, if this pace keeps going, might be Monday or Tuesday hahah 🥹💕)
Once again, I'm sending a huge thanks to all my lovely backers, followers and everyone who showed support to make this launch happen! You are simply the best!!💖( And who knows, maybe there will be another special freebie unlocked when we hit 100 backers~)
MEHSHARK, GRR GRR~!!! 🦈💕
P.S.: For my backers, make sure to check out the poll and pick your favorite sticker effect~💖
