Hi there backers, if you ordered one of the remaining delayed pins, they arrived and I have just finished grading them. Below you can find some photos. Please look out for a Backerkit email confirming your address, these will be locked soon and after this shipping will begin. Once your order has shipped, your tracking information is available through Backerkit. If your tracking number starts with “AHOY” you will need to use Asendia instead of USPS for tracking. More information on tracking is available here.

Contact Backerkit support or message me via the FAQ if there are any issues with your rewards. I can accommodate replacements or exchanges if needed. Make sure to reach out as soon as you receive your package, and if a pin or other item is missing please say which one in your message. Do not message me on social media or via my shops, if you do that I will miss your message.

Regarding the Power of Friendship pin: I was intending the pearl powder areas to have un-swirled pearl powder for a glittery effect, instead of pearl swirl. However I think the pin overall came out okay, and I have neither funds nor time to do a remake for this design. Since the pearl swirl wasn't included in the mockup: if you are dissatisfied with the end result you can use the contact methods mentioned above to reach out before addresses lock, and I can either: remove the pin in exchange for an Etsy credit to be used in my shop when it reopens, or swap the pin for another design (let me know which pin to swap for in your initial message). Please contact me promptly, this option will not be available once addresses are locked.

And now at last, the remaining pin photos:

I've also posted videos on Instagram, TikTok, and Tumblr showing them in action.

A reminder regarding leftovers: there will be a limited release of campaign leftovers on Etsy. I will reopen my shop for two days only, date TBD. I will send an update with a coupon code when my shop is open. Make sure to use this code before you purchase, it can't be applied retroactively and I won't be re-doing orders this time if you forget to use it. I had a big shipment of pins from the previous campaign returned to me, so many of those will be available in the shop as well, along with some new art prints.

If you miss out on Etsy, I will send leftovers to my stockists, if you are an international backer Mushroomy can ship to you. You can check with them in the future for when items are available, it may take a few weeks for items to be listed.

That's all for this update, as always leave your questions in the comments.
