The Final Stretch - Recolors unlocked!
Hey all! Hope you're doing well! Apologies for the bit of silence on my end! I was on a small, much needed, vacation and just got back ...
Hi guys! I wanted to pop in with a quick update to keep you all in the loop! I wanted to let you know that the pins I was waiting on to finish off shipping have been complete and are on their way to me! That means for all remaining orders please expect your orders to be dispatched within the next 2-3 weeks depending on how long it takes for the remaining pins to come my way. Please ensure your address is up to date, I'll be locking all addresses once the pins are in my hand!
Firstly we have the remade Egg of Innocence. I'm so glad I took the time to remake this, I'm MUCH happier with the result and I hope you are too! Next up we have the finished Eater of Worlds! Both turned out sooo great and I can't wait to see them in person!
That's all for now! Really appreciate your patience waiting for these remaining pins to get complete! Hope you guys have a great rest of your day!
Hi friends! I just wanted to pop in with a quick update and announce that my first batch of shipping has been complete! If your order does not contain the Egg of Innocence or Eater of Worlds then your order is likely on the way! Right now is holiday season for my suppliers, so I'm hoping after things will start moving again. I'll keep things updated.
If your receive your order and find an error or are unhappy with anything please contact me at [email protected] so I can get it resolved for you asap! I try to do my due diligence with each order, but with everything being done by myself I wouldn't be surprised if an error slipped through. I'm more than happy to do what I can to resolve any issues.
That's about it for now, I'll post another update when I receive the remaining pins. As a reminder, please ensure your payment is valid, I cannot ship out your order if your card has not been charged and you may forfeit your reward if it's not resolved within a reasonable time frame. Same goes for any unfinished surveys, I cannot provide your reward until everything is complete.
Thanks so much and have a safe and happy rest of your week!
Hi all! Hope you've been doing well! I just wanted to pop in with a bit of an update! Most of the pins are here and I wanted to share pictures and give you a bit of a timeline update now that things are getting closer to shipping on my end.
Before I get into that, I just wanted to also share off my next campaign which will be launching this March! This collection is a bunch of deep sea critters, and if you're interested you can follow along HERE
Anyway, onto the updates you came here for!
Locking Orders
Since I have a majority of items in hand, I'm going to be locking orders this Friday January 17th. This means you'll be unable to make any adjustments to your selections. Afterwards on Monday January 20th I'll be charging cards. Ensure your shipping address is up to date and you have a valid card on file! Below you can find pictures of most of the finished pins for you to make any final adjustments as needed!
Egg Of Innocence
Unfortunately this pin did not turn out how I expected. From the suppliers photos I thought it would be okay, but once getting into my hands I realized the effect that I wanted didn't come through at all. The contrast with the Dyed Metal made the effect really dark, making it near impossible to see the half raised metal, looking like just a circle or a blob. I've attached some photos to show what I mean.
As such, I've decided to reproduce this pin with different colors. I'm planning On getting this pin made with Rose Gold Enamel and a lighter translucent color to better contrast the effect. This was my first time trying soft enamel/dyed metal with this effect, and I think the colors just blended too much together, which is why I'm opting for a hard enamel solution. I've produced this effect with other pins before in Hard Enamel and it's looked much better. I posted an example of a previous pin below to get an idea on what I was going for.
I apologize for any inconvenience or disappointment with the color changes, I figured this would be the best solution to get an end product I'm happy and confident enough to give out to you guys. If you're unhappy with this adjustment you can do one of the following:
Update your survey to switch to a different mini pin option if you're disinterested in this one after the changes
If you really want one of the original orange ones, I'm more than happy to give them out. Please send me an email at [email protected]just saying that you want one of the orange eggs and I'll make a note on your order. Just please understand this is not up to my usual standards and the effect is really difficult to see!
Eater of Worlds
I'm using a different supplier to get these pins done, and as such they haven't shipped yet. I'm hoping they'll be complete soon, I'm really excited to get them into my hands! Here's an update on the completed sample of both colors, I'm super stoked with how they turned out :) Because these were more complex pins I wanted to spend additional time ensuring I got it looking great, and hope you'll be happy with it too! I'll provide another update when this design is in my hands so I can take pictures in my own lighting
Everything Else!
Here are all the other pins that turned out great! I had to take indoor pics since it's painfully cold out, hopefully you understand :) Also apologies for the messy room, I'm doing some reorganization and everything is a mess haha! I'm going to be working on grading and packaging these pins in the next couple of days! Also remember the rainbow plating has different color variations per pin design!
I think that about wraps up the update for now! As always if you need any help with anything please reach out to me at [email protected]Thanks so much for your support and patience as I continue to work through this campaign! I'll continue to provide updates as they come. Stay safe and stay warm!
Hi all! Hope you've been doing well! I just wanted to pop in with a quick little update to let you know that production is well underway and going smoothly! I wanted to update as I've gotten the stickers in as well as some Pin WIP photos!
Also as a bit of a side note consider following me on Bluesky! You can find my account HERE! I've been posting lots of WIP's, doodles, pet photos, and having a blast and would love to grow and use the platform more!
Stickers
Here are all the sticker designs for the campaign! I added some special effects to some of the designs to make them pop :) Just a reminder that your surveys are unlocked! If you'd like to edit your pledge selection after seeing any of the stickers you're more than welcome to! Surveys will be locked once the pins are in my hands so there's still plenty of time and I have lots of leftover stickers! Please note, I'm planning on reprinting Tangled - Rainbow just because the size ended up too small by accident, but I'm still sharing it off for you to get an idea what the final product will look like. Anyways, hope you like them!

Pin WIP's
Below are some WIP's for the enamel pins! Please note these are NOT FINAL, some of these aren't fully complete and might have some errors that are being addressed, but I wanted to share anyways cuz I'm really happy with the progress :)
That's all that I have for you now! I hope you all have a safe and restful holiday season! I'll catch you all in the new year!
Hey all! Hope you all have been doing well! I wanted to announce that Surveys are being Rolled out! So make sure you check your inboxes and ensure you have a valid payment method ready to go! As always, if you have any questions or concerns about your survey or pledge feel free to contact me at [email protected] and I'm happy to help! I'm going to keep surveys open for a good amount of time, but keep in mind that I'll place an official order with my supplier once I reach a response rate of 80%, so the sooner you get your surveys in the sooner I can place an order :)
New Small Pin Design
As some of you might have noticed, I've added a couple of extra goodies that I wanted to break down for you below! Because of the final push at the end of the campaign, we secured enough funding for an additional small pin! As such I've added the following design as an option to choose choose as a campaign reward. This design is called Masking and will come in two color variations! Each friend will be 1.75 Inches in length, and be Dyed metal with Epoxy Coating! This design will also be available as a Vinyl Sticker for you to choose from!
Additional Add-Ons
I've also taken the time to add some friends I was planning on self funding! You can add any of these items to your order if you see fit, otherwise I'll have plenty in my shop at a later date!
First up I have my Spiky Pineapple Isopods! These were based on my beloved pet Isopods and will be teeny fellas at just 0.75 inches! They'll feature Dyed Metal Plating, Screenprint Accents, and Epoxy Coating. Each pin will be single clutch!
In addition to that, I've decided to add some Binding of Isaac themed pins as additional add-ons as well! I've wanted to make Tboi pins for a good while now so I'm very excited to finally wrap up these designs and offer them to you all! Hope you guys enjoy because I'm a huge tboi fan and would love to make more merch!!
Firstly we'll have my personal favorite character, the Lilith/Incubus Pin set! This set will include 2 pins, both hard enamel with black nickel plating! Lilith will be 1.25 Inches in Height and feature double clutch backing, while Incubus will be 0.8 Inches in Length with a single clutch backing!
And then finally I have my Dogma Pin set! Full image is on the add-on page, but this pin set will be a two piece pin with a chain attaching Dogma to a TV set! Dogma will be 2 inches in length with double clutch backing while the TV set will be 1.75 Inches in length! Both will feature UV print accents to get that funky TV static, as well as Black Dyed Metal! I'm sooo excited to see how Dogma turns out, I know it'll be great!
Vinyl Stickers
I've added Vinyl Sticker options for EVERY design from the campaign! You can choose whatever you want either as an add-on or if you pledged for the sticker pack you'll be able to choose 5 designs of your choice! Please note that the images I used for the stickers are pin mockups, and they may change in the final variation! I'm planning on cleaning up the colors and adding fancy effect accents to really make them pop! So just note there might be some slight adjustments but shouldn't be anything too major!
Holiday Break
Just a heads up that next week I'm going to be spending time with family for the Thanksgiving holiday. Rest assured that taking care of this campaign is my first and foremost priority, so I'll be available to answer any questions and keep on top of things. Right now I'm running a holiday sale and am planning on closing my shop early December for a much needed rest period, so if you'd like any goodies for the holidays be sure to place your order sooner than later!
I think that's all for now! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your love and support! I'm beyond excited to start getting these pins produced and sharing them with you all! Hope you all have a safe and happy holiday season as well!
