Wiieee! Squee! We are funded and then some! Awesome stuff <3 Thank you all. So many of you have backed for 4+ pins/sets, it’s amazing. I feel truly grateful. To celebrate I added a new mini mushroom to the freebies mix.
When we reach 3750, all backers with 4+ Pins and or sets will geen the Green Mini mushroom! We only 200 off, so I feel this is pretty achievable :).
And for the followers of this project; 4h remaining on the early bird deals!
New Stretch goals
Now, sitting here for the next three weeks is kinda boring. So I wanted to add some extra stretch goals, for which I need your input. I truly didn’t think we would get this far, so I’m massively unprepared ;). However, I do have some sketches that you can vote on as additional pins. Keep in mind, sketches! Very much not final designs.
Field guides One? Or more nature related field guides. Concept: 1.5-1.75”, gold enamel like the rest of the pins. One design would unlock at 4K.
Spring time tea Tea is one of my favourite beverages and I love different teas during the year, matching the season. I don’t have sketches for the other seasons, so it’s just spring tea for now. Concept: 1.75”-2” pin, pearl swirl on the white porcelain. Unlocks at 4K.
Majestic tree Because gnarly trees are the best. This sketch is still very rough. I want to play with some border decorations and gradient background. Concept: 1.75-2”, UV printed gradient background, gold enamel. Unlocks at 4K. Green Mushroom for everyone The current goal is to a free pin for everyone that backed 4+ pins or pin sets. At 4K everyone would get a free green mini pin. Mini pins are all 0.75” You can vote below what your favourite option is! Also feel free to comment which field guides appeals the most to you or if there is something else you would like to see.
A smoke test sends the survey to about 5% of backers in each pledge level. It's a final check to make sure everything works as expected before surveys go out to everyone.
If everything looks good, we'll roll surveys out to the rest of the backers shortly after.
If you don't get a survey today, that's totally normal - just means you're not in the 5%. You will get yours soon.
Your survey is where you enter any shipping information, payment information, and can add-on any last minute items. It's important you fill this out!
Important note: Shipping costs will be collected later. We will communicate when that step is coming! Once we’re closer to fulfillment, we’ll confirm your shipping addresses and collect the shipping fees then.

First of all, thank you so much for all the love and support during Pintopia this year!! It always means the world to me to see everyone come together for our little Backerkit pin community 💖 Let's get into this exciting update~ ^_^
📝 Surveys finally released!! 🥳 🎉
I've been working hard in the background finishing the surveys this past month and making sure there were no errors before I sent them over to the Backerkit Team for review. After some back and forth last week, they were finally approved and the Smoke Tests came back all clear. So now ALL surveys are released!
If you can, fill out your survey ASAP! The sooner I can get the final counts from everyone, the sooner production can begin~ I'm hoping in the next 2 weeks, I’ll be able to submit everything to my manufacturer to start production ^_^ This is the fun part where we just sit patiently and wait for them to get made~ 💟⏳
Without further ado, here's the last stretch goal pin design Venom in Bloom!! This design features a venomous Snake Skeleton adorned with poisonous folliage including the tiny pink Oleander flowers & the larger multi-colored Hellebore flowers 💐 This pin is beautiful, but deadly 🖤
Venom in Bloom pins will be 2" tall, black nickel metal with screen-printed details.
If you didn't see the last updates, the other stretch goal pin that was unlocked was The Consumed Raven pinsin both a rainbow metal and a black nickel finish~ 🌈🖤 These will also be 2" wide.
🕷️ New Iron-on Patches in the Add-on Shop! 💚
I added these new 3" patches to the Survey Add-on Shop!! These are leftover patches from the Pinned & Preserved Campaign, so grab yours in the survey for only $12 each before I list the rest at a higher price in my Etsy Shop~
Cicada patch
Praying Mantis patch
Rhino Beetle patch
Death Hawk Moth patch
Black Widow patch
More updates will be coming soon! Thank you again for your amazing support during Pintopia, I'm so excited to be back here to bring something new to the Rebirth & Ruin series 🥰🖤🌿🥀
The sticker sheets and dice have arrived, and I’m very happy with how they turned out. The colors came out soft and clean just like the designs, the print quality looks great, and the dice came out especially beautiful. I’ve attached a photo so you can see them. I cannot wait for you all to have these in your hands.
Production on the Lunar Pals pins is now in the final stages. The manufacturer has confirmed they are almost complete, and they should be arriving to me in the next few weeks for final quality check before shipping begins.
We will be charging cards in the next 48 hours, so please make sure your payment information is up to date to avoid any delays with your order. However, surveys will remain unlocked for now, so you can still update your shipping address or make changes if needed.
Thank you again for your patience and support. It is always exciting to see a project come together piece by piece, and I am really proud of how Lunar Pals is turning out.
