Project Update: Updates and 3D mini crystal design change

I'm excited to announce that most of the pins are ready to ship right now!

I got this photo from the manufacturer! Look at all those shiny babies


I posted a video of the mini brooch pins so you can see what they look like in three dimensions, and that's on Instagram if you missed it. Boxes have shipped from Ukraine (they couldn't get me photos because they're still in an active war area 🥺 I hope they stay safe! ♥) and stickers will be shipping shortly as well. I'm eager to get these out to you and I've got lots of helping hands waiting for everything to land so we can fulfill it all ASAP!

Additionally, check out this photo of the collab pin that Marachi Studios is fulfilling. 👀 As a reminder, people who backed both Elemental Tea Time 2: Garden Party and Mini Moon Pin Set (this one!) during Pintopia 2 for a physical rewards tier will get this pin. How adorable is it??



Mini Crystal Design Changes

I say most pins are on their way because there was a big of a kerfuffle with the 3D mini crystal pin. If you recall originally, we had this design:

It's always a toss up as to how the manufacturer may interpret these designs for the 3D effect we use, and sometimes we can manage to get the design to somewhere that we're happy and doesn't take a huge amount of effort to get there.

We received the samples, and weren't super happy with the way it came out. You can see in the samples that this didn't really come across as "gem like". We asked for a do-over.



After a LOT of back and forth trying to figure out a way to make this design work, we've managed to renew the design. Here is a mockup 3D rendering of the new crystal pin. This design is more "crystal-like" with the facets, and includes some of Amunet's beautiful bits of flair as well as an iridescent crystal.


We love how much more gemlike it looks and we hope you love the updated design.

I know you're eager to get your pins and I hope in the next update we can tell you that we're starting to ship. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding! Our next update will also be close to when we're locking address so be sure to be on the lookout for that soon. ❤️
