Project Update: Pins Pins Pins!

Hi everyone! I have excited news! 
I got the first box of pins in this weekend and have begun to grade them! I'm still waiting on the second box to arrive, but in the meantime I can go ahead and grade the first half of pins. Once the second box arrives and I get them graded as well then I can begin the shipping process!! Just wanted to share the update with you all and also some pictures I took of the pins that I have so far! I think they look so good, and I'm sooo excited to see the rest of them! I can't wait for them to be in your hands! 
Here are some photos<3
I'll update again soon (after the second box arrives) with shipping information<3 
Have a great week!

Project Update: Finalizing Production!

Hi all! 
I wanted to share some exciting news! The pins are nearly finished, just a couple designs still being screen printed, and then they’re read to come to me! 
I have a couple of sneak peak pictures from the factory that I’m excited to share!💕 
Also, now that pins are almost done, it’s time to lock orders and charge card for shipping costs. This step will happen over the next few days, so be on the lookout for an email from backerkit! 
Now here are some sneaks! 
Thank you all so much! I can’t wait to have these pins in hand and get them to you all!!!
Have a great week!

Project Update: Surveys Going Out!

Hi everyone!
Pins are in production!! Just a heads up to keep an eye on your email because surveys are going out now:)
They’ll be emailed directly to you and will be coming from backerkit<3 If you have any issues or don’t receive an email within the next 24 hours, please feel free to reach out to me!
Reminder that shipping was not charged during the campaign, and will be charged in the survey! This is different than shipping in kickstarter, which is charged with the initial pledge, so please be aware of this :) 
Be sure to complete your survey all the way through and please reach out to me with any questions<3 
Thank you so so much! I can’t wait to share some production pictures with you!!!
Have a great day!

Project Update: Last 24 Hours! Final Pin Design!

Hi everyone!
Thank you so much for an amazing campaign! We blew through our goals, and I’m so excited to bring these pins to life with you all!
I wanted to share one final design. It’s called Portal, will be 2 inches tall, and rose gold plating!

With it being the final day, I also wanted to talk about next steps! Once cards are charged, it will be 2 weeks until the funds reach me from backerkit. Once I receive the funds, surveys will be sent out to everyone asking for shipping addresses, and giving the opportunity to add on any additional items. Production will also begin immediately after I receive funds! I’m so excited about these designs, and can’t wait for you to receive them! 
If anyone has any questions, please let me know<3 
Have a great day!

Project Update: New Pins!!!

Hi everyone! I just wanted to share some new pin designs that were just added to the campaign! I’m pretty excited about them, especially the first one in particular!

It’s called Kintsugi, and it’s inspired by its name which is the term for a traditional Japanese method of repairing broken pottery. The pieces are glued back together and the seams are painted over with gold powder, thus preserving the piece and making it even more beautiful for its flaw! This pin will be 2 inches, have gold plating, and include screen print details.

The next design is called Balance! This one is for the people who love white, black, and gold pins! Something about that combination in pins is so stunning! It will be 2 inches and have gold plating!<3

I also added a couple of art prints featuring art from the campaign! 
What do you think of the new designs???<3 I’m excited to hopefully add more!!!
Have a great week!

Project Update: Thank you!!!

Hi Everyone! 
Thank you so much for a wonderful start to the campaign! The first day was a major success thank to you all! <3 
Just a reminder, for everyone that has already backed and anyone who plans to back within the first 48 hours, you will also receive a free set of 5 stickers, as well as a 5x7 print of art featured in the campaign! 

As most of you may already know, this is my 5th enamel pin campaign! The first 4 I have launched through kickstarter and they were all successful! But after being reached out to by a team member from backerkit about trying their new Crowdfunding platform, and seeing success of other projects, I decided to give it a go and launch this campaign here to try it out! 
I love it so far and hope you all will as well! 
I'll be posting some polls and discussions to try to keep this campaign as interactive as possible with you all!<3 
We've already unlocked 6 out of 10 designs, and it's only DAY 2~! Thank you all so much! I'm looking forward to adding some more goodies once all designs are unlocked ;) 
If anyone has any questions about how this works, please feel free to comment or reach out to me!<3
I'll be updating again soon! Thank you again!

Hi everyone!! WOW, we unlocked all 10 pin designs in just 3 days!!! Thank you so much!!
This definitely means we need to add some more stretch goals! So I wanted to start a discussion to see what everyone would be interested in seeing more of?
In the past I have done tote bags, t-shirts, keychains, earrings, stickers, and pins.
Suggest what you'd like to see below! It could be any of these, or something entirely new! I'm always looking forward to designing new products<3
In the meantime, look forward to some new pin designs coming for sure!:) They're already in the works<3
Have a great weekend!
