I have news: the pins are in! I repeat, the pins are in!!! I will be going through and taking pictures to share soon. I also have an update on the rest of the merchandise, everything should be heading my way in about a week. I think I'll have everything in hand by the end of June, but I will be traveling at that time so I don't anticipate rewards to start shipping before July.
I'm so excited to share that I just received word from the pin manufacturer that they're looking at shipping soon, there's one pin design left in production and the rest are ready.
What this means is that it's time to lock orders! Please keep an eye on your email for the notice, this is your chance to add anything you may have missed to your order or update your shipping information. Card payments for shipping fees and add-ons will process next Friday, April 24, 2026.
Thank you all, and I'm so excited to get these cute pins in— I'll update again with an shipping ETA for backers when I have the pins in hand. :)
I'm SO thrilled to announce that the pins are officially heading to production! Take a look at the mock-ups below. There's almost always some small shifts from the design to the art for production, but I think they look amazing, and I know you guys are just as excited as I am to see them as real life pins!
