We unlocked the voters choice pin and the most voted on design was Dungeons and Dragons Book cover. Everyone voted colors and I picked the popular color votes. Now choose what you want!
Wow today has been fantastic and thanks for supporting not only my art, but the other makers in the pin kid's collab project.
We have unlocked so many levels. I only have a few things left to unlock, so chances are pretty good that the entire project and all extras will be unlocked soon. Make sure to fill out the polls to choose the pin design for the unlocked voters choice pin.
That being said, I wanted to make sure you all saw the insane freebies we are all giving away. Early Bird only lasts for another day, so make sure to get those rewards fast. You can get one single pin from each collab project and all of this could be yours! Check the PIN KIDS collab page for more info HERE. GO get this stuff here!!!

Hello! so I got a whole bunch of items in the mail super early! They were due to begin arriving early March. But most of the items are now arriving! There are 2-3 items that aren't here yet... and one items that came with a big mistake, so it will be remade. SCROLL DOWN to see all of my update images. I think you'll be excited!!
Also- Just a reminder, today is the last day of pintopia and I had a project there. The World Is Trash. And I just unlocked another freebie for backers. So please please please support my project.
So here are some images of the pins we got the other day. It takes a while to QC them all and count them and sort them. So not sure when we will begin packing orders. If you need to change your address please let me know via email. [email protected] Im scheduled to pay the orders in April, but looks like we should be able to get a portion of these packed and shipped much sooner!
forest bookshelf pin- magnets stick to it
(oops its upside-down but you get the idea)
beautiful detail
the printing is so detailed
the raven
this dragon is bright red in the sun and a dark red out of the sun.
you can see the fur is actually hand swirled pearl enamel so there's multi colors int it
the fox has a ton of printing and colors
so many gorgeous details
details in the owl are so pretty and the glitter looks so magical
tons of beautiful feather printing
the ombre pearl smoke and the potion bottle look amazing
And here's the mistake one that's getting remade:
The cats eyes are supposed to be yellow. And while I dont think it looks bad grey... It just doesn't have the same oomph that the other pins have. So these will be remade in March. We are scheduled to ship orders in April... and Anyone who ordered the cat will probably be at the end of the time window. If you'd rather get your order sooner and you dont care that the eyes are grey you can email me [email protected] and let me know and I'll ship this grey eyed cat and you won't have to wait. But I'll post again when It's closer to shipping time!!
This update is being sent to all followers of Sunset Road.
Pins are nearing completion! I received some news from my other manufacturer about the remaining pins. The window and lantern pins are all done, and the snowglobe style shaker pins are almost done. They have to fix the acrylic on some of them, so they will remake those pins after their well-deserved holiday for the Lunar New Year. Both of my manufacturers are perfectionists, so they are taking their time making sure each pin is up to their standard for quality. But here is a picture of the shaker pins!
I can't wait to see them in person. For further pin picture updates, follow me on Instagram @sunsetroadco where I update way more frequently so I don't overwhelm you all on Backerkit. We're still on track to ship out this campaign towards the end of March hopefully. I didn't want to rush these pins because of how complicated they are with the enamel, acrylic, and liquid components so I told my manufacturer to take her time making sure they are completely correct.
Other news!
We are in the last 2 days of our current Pintopia campaign, Books & Banter! I've already started proofing designs with one of my manufacturers so I can get pins ordered ASAP. Make sure to get your pledges in before it ends as I won't be ordering too many extras! Here's a proof for two of the book designs:
Lastly...
I have another campaign on the horizon, a continuation of my Village series called Autumn Villages! Launching March 29th, this campaign will once again offer two variants of our build-you-own enamel pin village: Cozy Autumn and Spooky Fall. We'll also have a bunch of smaller "accessory" pins ranging from .75" to 1.25" to accessorize your pin village. Follow along early to receive a free pin for pre-launch followers, and ANOTHER free pin for early bird backers!
Okay that was a lot! Thanks so much for sticking through to the end. TLDR; lots of updates and fun pins in production and on the horizon!
Just the tiniest of updates to let you know that the workshop is hammering away at your beautiful doors! Here is one before all the details have been added! I just love the color! ❤️
Things are looking good thus far! No hiccups so we a currently on track according to our schedule!
Just a note that 12 people have either not completed their survey or their card was declined! The time to still fix these errors is narrowing! So please take care of it ASAP.

Baguettes, Berets, Bastille-Oo, La La! A love letter to Paris. This enamel pin series captures the charm of cobblestone streets, café culture, and timeless Parisian icons. Each design is a tiny memento to the City of Light.
Hello Baker Friends (and Explorers, and Dragons, and Cafe patrons)!
🍰 Just a quick update that Cake pins are on their way! I have also ordered the Dollop Sticker Sheets, so those should be on their way soon. Really close to sending out all your goodies! I will be working on the pin displays over the next two weeks. I expect to start shipping all Cake orders by Feb 28. 🍰
NEW WEBSITE!
If you missed out on the Cakes, they will also be available on my new website, Pin Pavilion! They will not be part of the upcoming Spring Cleaning event. Sign up for the monthly Pin Pal newsletter to keep up with sales, projects, and events!
CURRENT PIN PROJECT
Please join me in the current Space Corp adventure, Mythic Pins. This time we are exploring mythical dragon realms in space! As someone who backed the Cute Cake Club project, you'll receive a FREE 1" Moon Pin with your pledge.
Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH for being part of the Club opening! Please let me know if you have any questions. My next update will be in about 2-3 weeks with shipping progress report.
Please remember, if you fail to pay for your pledge, add ons, or final shipping costs, you WILL NOT receive your rewards.
Hooray! I got a gigantic 30 pound box in the mail yesterday before the snowstorm here in New Jersey. About 75% of the pins from Celestial Cottagecore are already in hand: this delivery had the hourglasses, all of the cloche designs, the zodiac books, the celestial animals and the mini pins. Still in production are the lantern bookstacks, the ombre gradient windows and the snowglobe style shaker pins as they are a bit more complicated and with my other manufacturer. But we are ahead of the game and have a ton of stuff in hand for me to quality check.
Here are some pictures! These are in natural light at my front door as there is already almost 10 inches of snow outside and not stopping anytime soon.
I'm incredibly pleased with them all! The glitters and pearls really pop against the clear epoxy on the cloches. I'm so proud of this collection.
That's all for now - I'm not sure I'll have the other pins before the factories take a well deserved break for Lunar New Year in February. But any updates I get from them I will share with you here and on Instagram. Follow me @sunsetroadco for more frequent communication and pictures of my cats!

If you’re not ready by the 30th, no problem—just don’t complete the final confirmation step. You can return to your survey later.
Design choice guarantee deadline: February 7th After this date, you can still submit your survey, but we can’t guarantee all design selections. If we run out of one of your chosen designs while packing orders, we will reach out to you to choose a new design. It's very rare that this happens as we usually order more than extra of each pin.

If your original pledge charge failed or was canceled, you’ll still receive a survey where you can complete that payment to receive your rewards.
Add-Ons
Add-ons are optional and ship with your pledge (not separately).
Shipping Address Changes
You can update your address in the survey until January 30th.
After lockdown, email [email protected] as soon as possible for address changes.
Returned packages due to incorrect addresses will require a new shipping payment.
We’ll post a final address reminder before shipping begins.
Pre-Order Store
A pre-order store is available for non-backers. Please note:
The pre-order store is separate from your survey.
All survey items already appear in your add-ons—be careful not to place a duplicate order.
