Project Update: Annnnd That's a Wrap!
But of course we're only just getting started because now we gotta fulfill this beast!
I just wanted to start off by saying a HUGE thank you to all of you who have pledged to this campaign! What a wild ride. Not too shabby for our first campaign on Backerkit!
We were a little bit nervous about the platform at first, we've done a lot of fulfillment with these guys but we have yet to try their crowdfunding platform. We learned a LOT with this campaign (as with any campaign) there are a few things we'd do differently but hey! We all did pretty good here, good enough we now get to start talking about what comes NEXT!
So well, what happens now?

So well, what happens now?
- We're waiting for the funds! They should drop in about 2 weeks (credit cards and processing and all that).
- In the meantime we're setting up a pledge manager for anyone who missed out on a few of the add-ons in the last stretch there, including unlockables of some of our stretch goals we juuust missed!
- Surveys will be sent out beginning of May (We'll be in-between conventions and travelling so its just easier for us that way.
- End of May we put in the orders for all of the campaign product.
- June-July we start shipping things out as we get them!
That's the very rough timeline we have at the moment. If all goes well we should have this thing turned over pretty quick but we'll keep you posted with updates as things happen. We made a lot of updates (daily) on the campaign but at this point we're going to be shifting towards once-a-month updates unless there are crazy developments that cause us to update more frequently.
ADD-ONS
I've also mentioned in a previous update, if there were any specific add-ons folks wanted me to put up on the pledge manager (mostly to save on shipping), feel free to let me know. We have a lot of inventory and a lot of our older enamel pins are getting phased out so if there's something you like, hit me up in the comments we can work something out, you can find our selection here!
For folks who expressed interest in pins with only 1 or 2 left in stock. I'll be reaching out to you via email soon! Keep an eye out for windywallflower@gmail in your inboxes. Backerkit doesn't have a DM system atm so we've got to do a bit of a run-around!
Hmmmm. I think that's all for now!
Just one more time for the road: Thank you all so much for pledging to our campaign! We're just a funky little queer Canadian duo, getting to make objects like this is always one hell of a ride and its always fun sharing that ride with folks like you.
If you're in Calgary (end of April for the Expo), Toronto (early may for TCAF) or Montreal (end of may for MCAF) come find us at a booth! We're always happy to meet ya!
Otherwise, stay safe out there everyone!
Catch you in the next update~
