Step on in to the Shroomie Shoppe — a collection of tiny mushrooms in tiny jars! Our little Shroomie friends are back from my previous campaign (Shroomie Roomies), this time bringing an expanded world of treasures: from their most-adored foods and items to some of their favorite scenery, captured in a bottle. The urge to squish and hug our fungi friends can now be satisfied too with your new best cuddle buddy, the official Shroomie Plushie! These lil' guys are ready to travel with you wherever you go and keep your day silly and your face full of smiles. Because there's always SO mushroom in our hearts for more Shroomie pals :)
✦ I'm partnering once again with the amazing MindyTheTurtle, (who I worked with last Pintopia as well to make some adorable collaborative pins)! While I'm adding plushies to my campaign this year, she's bringing an incredible collection of ita bags (window display backpacks) to her campaign that you don't want to miss.
When you back my project (at any pledge tier) and back Critters Collective, you'll get one each of the exclusive pin designs above, included for FREE with your pledge. The freebie pins will be added to your pledge during the post-campaign survey. ✦ Click below to jump to Mindy's project: ✦

✦ Pay Over Time Option ✦
✨ NEW: If your pledge is over $150, during Checkout you'll see a "Pay $ Monthly (4 Installments)" option. If you select this, once the campaign ends (if the project meets its funding goal), you'll be charged a quarter of your total balance once a month, for four months. You'll be able to pay off your remaining balance early too if you'd like.
If you select the "Pay Over Time" option, you acknowledge that:
✧ You will not be able to receive your post-campaign Rewards Survey or have your item(s) shipped until your total balance is paid in full.
✧ Any partial payments made are not eligible for a refund.
Why Use "Pay Over Time"? 👉 This payment option is here to make the higher pledge tiers more accessible and let you get everything you want without having to pay the full amount all at once! Take advantage of the delayed nature of Crowdfunding by spreading your pledge balance over the few months between the campaign and fulfillment.

✧ Timeline ✧
Backerkit is a crowdfunding platform, meaning the amount you pledge to this project directly goes into the project manufacturing costs and fulfillment fees. In other words, it's because of YOU that these pins & extra goodies go into manufacturing and come to life! I appreciate your support and help SO much in making this new Shroomie project happen. Below is an approximate timeline for the fulfillment of this campaign:
✦ January 23: Project launches!
✦ January 23: Project launches!
✧ February 13: Campaign ends! Surveys will be sent out within the following 1-2 weeks.
✦ February 27: I receive funds & production period begins.
✧ April—May: Everything is shipped to me & your goodies will be packed with love.
✦ June—August: Rewards arrive at your doorstep!
NOTE: If any of the above estimated timeline changes due to manufacturing or shipping delays, you'll be notified via the project Updates.

Hey there, fellow pin lover and collector of fantastical, shiny things! My name's Lexi (of Lexidus Art), and I'm a California-based artist with a big passion for bringing people a smile through art. 😄 This is my 6th enamel pin crowdfunding project (see some of my previous campaigns here), but in-between past Kickstarters, I've privately designed custom pins for brands like BratBox, Alpha Investments, Hume Lake Christian Camps and numerous local businesses. Bringing people's dreams and visions to life, and ultimately creating something that brings others encouragement, inspiration or a smile will forever be my favorite part of this design business!
Mushrooms have always sparked joy for me - everything from their fantastical, unique nature to how easily (and adorably) they can be personified into squishy little characters! Thanks to everyone's overwhelming support last Pintopia of my Shroomie Roomies project, and due to majority votes for more shroomies, we're back again with a whole new fleet of fungi friends! It was a close tie between more mushroom pins and some sketches I had of little scenery jars, so in the end, I decided to combine the concepts and bring a colorful little mushroom shop of jar-themed Shroomies, mixed with some purely scenic bottles, and of course, the also-highly-voted for mushroom Plushie. I hope you enjoy this new collection as much as I do, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping bring this project to life :)

✧ Also, special thanks to my amazing bff @DragonLeafStudios for helping me sketch a number of the Shroomie pin concepts! Couldn't have done it without you ♥
All reviews are from real customers on my Etsy shop (thank you so much to everyone who supported before!) 🥰

🍄 𝗗𝗘𝗟𝗔𝗬𝗦: Please understand that shipping delays are a fairly normal possibility and usually out of our hands, so your patience and understanding is tremendously appreciated. You'll be the first to know if any delays are expected from my manufacturer to me, and as for your mail that's shipping from me to you: all packages will include a tracking number so that we can keep an eye on the shipping progress together! I'll do everything I can to get your rewards delivered as timely and safely as possible :)
🍄 𝗙𝗘𝗘𝗦: International backers will be responsible for paying any customs fees.
🍄 𝗔𝗗𝗗𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗦: Kindly make sure that your mailing address is up to date after the campaign ends so that your rewards can be packed and shipped as soon as possible!
— 𝘗𝘙𝘖𝘋𝘜𝘊𝘛 𝘔𝘈𝘕𝘜𝘍𝘈𝘊𝘛𝘜𝘙𝘐𝘕𝘎 —
🍄 𝗖𝗢𝗟𝗢𝗥𝗦: The final colors of the enamel pins may differ slightly from what you see here on screen due to differences in monitors & the hand-mixing process of paints. However, I'll make sure the physical pins match as close as possible to the digital proofs!
🍄 𝗣𝗜𝗡 𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗘𝗦: All pins will be personally inspected and graded before shipping out. I intend to ship out the best quality (A grade) pins possible to all backers, though please understand that since enamel pins are handmade items, there's always a possibility of small manufacturing defects (typically only noticed under bright light & close inspection).
🍄 𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗨𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗥: I'll be producing these pins with the same manufacturer that produced my "Shroomie Roomies" collection last campaign. They've done an excellent job with color matching, communication and sticking as close to the timeline as possible, and I am confident that they'll do a wonderful job with this new pin collection as well.
I've also been working closely with my new plushie manufacturer, and they've been fast with communications and updates thus far as we work through the sample process and prep for the full manufacturing run. I've cross-checked this company across multiple platforms and have confidence from their ratings and reviews that they'll do a great job with our Shroomie Plushie!

🍄 𝗣𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗘𝗥𝗦: I have an incredible team of the best packaging helpers I could ask for who have successfully helped me pack all rewards during my previous projects. As soon as all the products arrive to me, we'll be working hard to pack up your orders as safely and timely as possible. We make fun packing parties out of it, so you know your orders will be shipped with love! Should any challenges occur during this part of the process that cause shipments to get delayed, you'll be the first to know via the project updates.
