Welcome to Pond's Teahouse & Gardens - An Enamel Pin Collection! Join Pond, the magical frog, and Sorrel, the little mushroom gardener, for a whimsical tea party and enchanting garden stroll.
You are cordially invited to the grand opening of Pond's Teahouse & Gardens, a cute enamel pin collection based on Pond, the magical frog, and the Teahouse & Gardens of their dreams!
Pond, alongside Sorrel, the little mushroom gardener, has been working so hard on preparations for the launch of this project, and we need your help to bring their dream to life!
This collection is for the folks who love enchanting creatures, for the tea enthusiasts, and for people who find that there is magic in nature! By backing this campaign, you help Pond's Teahouse & Gardens become a reality, you help me afford production costs, and you can get some super cute campaign freebies!
It's what we've all been waiting for! All of the cute enamel pins in the Pond's Teahouse & Gardens Collection are hard enamel with gold plating, backstamps, and rubber clutches.
Every pledge goes towards unlocking new designs, so be sure to pledge for the pins you want, even if they're locked! By pledging now, you immediately increase the chances of new designs getting unlocked!
Important Note: I have a VERY limited inventory of Pond's Field Notes set aside for the backers of the LIMITED "9 Enamel Pin" Pledge Level! Pledging to that level means you get a Field Notes pin for FREE! This stretch goal is higher because it is a large and more complicated pin to have made!
I'm going to be doing something a little different with the unlocks for these mini pins. Community unlocks can be achieved by reaching a certain number of social media post interactions! To help us unlock these pins, you can share THIS Instagram post! You can also share a link to the project, just be sure you tag me @FeywildHaven or reach out to me with your proof of sharing the project so I can keep track!
These five mini teapot pins ARE UNLOCKED! I'd like to note that these 5 mini teapot pins are funded separate of the initial teapot mini freebie pin.
Pond's Teahouse & Gardens has partnered with Doily to bring you two adorable and unique freebie pins! Back both projects and the limited edition Teatime Doily pin (by Pond's Teahouse & Gardens) as well as Plush Pond pin (by Doily) will be added to your cart for free!
💖 WELCOME TO PINTOPIA — a celebration of creativity and collaboration from a diverse group of over 175 creators collectively launching their pin and/or plushie project on BackerKit from January 23rd - February 13.
Be on the lookout for projects that have paired up to be Cross-Collab partners — this means that if you back BOTH projects in the pair (for a physical reward), you will get a limited FREE pin from EACH creator. The more pairs you support, the more FREE pins you earn ✨
And for all you pin-collectors out there, we want to reward your achievements with a limited Gold Pintopia 2025 pin once you support 6 or more Cross-Collab pairs (this reward will be surveyed and shipped by the BackerKit team).
⚔️ 2 FREE Cross Collaborative Freebies for every cross-collab pair you back (one from each creator) 🏆 1 FREE Exclusive Gold Pintopia 2025 Pin if you back 10 participating projects or more
⭐️ PRO TIP: Get the MOST freebies by backing 5 Cross-Collab Pairs!
*See individual project pages for freebie unlock requirements **To unlock the Trophy Pin, you must support each project for a physical item
Are you new to BackerKit, or perhaps crowdfunding in general? I've got you!
What is BackerKit? BackerKit is a pledge now, pay later crowdfunding platform! This means you will not be charged until after the campaign ends, and you'll only be charged if the campaign is successful. By pledging to a campaign, you help creators bring their projects to life, and some creators (myself included) even offer deals for people who pledge early! Pledging for locked designs will help unlock them, so please don't hesitate. Every pledge matters!
Here are some helpful steps to get you started!
1.) Create a BackerKit account! This way, you can join in on community fun and stay updated on your favorite projects. This is a great starting point for your journey!
2.) Select a Pledge Level! Pledge Levels will vary from project to project. For example, this project includes Pledge Levels exclusive to backers in the first 48 hours (Early Bird), where you can get steep discounts on your pins!
3.) Choose Your Add-ons! Add-ons allow you to add additional items to your pledge. For this project, I offer a variety of pin Add-ons, as well as one for a 5pc sticker set!
4.) Check Out! You've selected your goodies and you're all set!
5.) Manage Your Pledge. Be sure you keep an eye on your emails after the campaign concludes, as I'll be sending out a survey to the email that you've signed up with! This is how you will select what pins you want and how you can manage your add-ons. Once you've finished your survey, you can still make changes to it until I lock orders!
WHOLESALE:
If you're interested in stocking items from Pond's Teahouse & Gardens, please contact me at [email protected] (since BackerKit doesn't have a messaging system here)! I'd love to chat!
SURVEY & DISCLAIMERS:
I will be sending out surveys within a few weeks of the campaign ending. Surveys allow you to select your rewards and, when you fill out your survey, I also collect addresses and shipping. I cannot send you your rewards if you do not fill out your survey. Be sure you fill it out as soon as you are able to, it is very important! Make sure you keep a close eye on your emails!
Through the BackerKit survey, you can: ✿ Select your desired pins and goodies from what has been unlocked! ✿ Add on any additional desired items to your pledge! ✿ Pay shipping so your goodies make it into your hands!
When it comes to refunds and forfeiture, there are some pretty important things I'd like to note. You can change or cancel your pledge at any time throughout the campaign but, if the campaign ends and your card is charged, I will no longer be able to issue a refund to you, as those funds immediately go towards the production of the campaign rewards. Regarding forfeiture, if you fail to respond to the survey in a timely manner, despite the reminders throughout campaign updates as well as me contacting you privately to fill it out, you will forfeit your rewards. If your survey is submitted after the initial survey due date (roughly a month after the end of the campaign, unless stated otherwise via campaign update), you run the risk of the pins you want being unavailable from the remaining selection. If you submit no survey to me by the time I lock orders and begin shipping, your pledge will be considered a donation and your rewards will be entirely forfeit.
Finally, we get to a section full of creators that I think highly of! It's quite the list, so please try to check out all of these campaigns when you can. They're all so lovely!
