THE FINAL CHARGE FOR ADD...
Hey all! Just wanted to pop by and thank you again for your support of our pin project. The remaining pins are now available in the AdorkaBows.com online shop!
Amunet and I are already planning some ideas if we get into Pintopia 3 in early 2025. Looking forward to sharing more beautiful designs with you soon. Stay magical! ✨
Brief update to let you know the project is 54% shipped! 🥳 Still hoping to have everything on the way by the end of July though I might touch the first few days of August with the final shipments.
This weekend is my kiddo's bday so there will be a bit of a lull in packing for now but I will be back to it soon!
IMPORTANT: All of these pins are Limited Edition! When your package arrives please open and verify everything is well as soon as possible!
All packages are shipped with tracking and insurance so if there's any issues at all with your items when they arrive please reach out to me quickly so I can find a resolution.
Because the items are Limited Edition I can only guarantee replacements for a certain amount of time as the items will eventually sell out.
A future update will have a deadline for any package inquiries which will correspond with the public release of the remaining items.
You can keep an eye on AdorkaBows Instagram and Facebook stories for regular packing/shipping updates. ♥
It took me ~10 days to get 1,010 pins graded, carded, wrapped and boxed. ✅
I was going to make all the packages and batch ship them but it turns out my brain is WAY too spicy for that! 🚫
Instead I'm working on making about 10-15 packages per day and will continue to do so until they are all done. I made 12 today and those go out tomorrow! 🌟
I am working in alphabetical order from A-Z by first name because it makes it faster for me to slap the labels on. 🔤
PirateShip will be sending you an email with your tracking info when you're stuff is on the way! 📨
All packages are insured. When your package arrives please check the contents AS SOON AS POSSIBLE because these are Limited Edition items I need to know sooner rather than later if you need replacements for any reason. 🕒
I will likely burn out at some point on packages and need to take a day or so to do literally anything else so thanks for your patience. 🙏🏻
I will make another update saying "I'm done" when I'm done so you can know if you need to contact me if you didn't get tracking. 🔍
Thanks so much for your support and patience! Almost there!!
Pics from packing:
All the pins have to be pressed into the cards one at a time.
The 3D Mini Sets don't have boxes but they did fit (tightly!) on the little cards.
This is when I finished carding all 1,010 pins.
Time to wrap them and put them in boxes.
Lots of wrapping and boxing, don't forget the stickers!

Assistant Supervisor Cherry loafing on the job (literally)
Everything packaged up!
The 12 packages I made today going out tomorrow!
Boxes and cards from Ukraine, pins from China, and stickers from Maryland all ordered from different vendors at different times and ALL the main items arrived today! 😲
The next step is that I will get to work on grading and carding pins. I will focus on the quantity of pins needed to fill the BK orders. Basically I will be grading and packing as I go along.
I also need to wait for the collab pins to arrive for those who backed my collab campaign. ♥
When ALL the packages are made I will print the labels and ship them.
THIS PROCESS IS GOING TO TAKE A WHILE. Your patience is appreciated!!! 🙏🏻✨
I am one person and there are ~150 packages to make. I also cannot grade/card pins and make packages all day because I will absolutely lose my mind. 🤣 I cannot give an estimate for the timeline here but I will be shooting to have everything packed and out the door by the end of July.
Additionally, check out this photo of the collab pin that Marachi Studios is fulfilling. 👀 As a reminder, people who backed both Elemental Tea Time 2: Garden Party and Mini Moon Pin Set (this one!) during Pintopia 2 for a physical rewards tier will get this pin. How adorable is it??
Mini Crystal Design Changes
I say most pins are on their way because there was a big of a kerfuffle with the 3D mini crystal pin. If you recall originally, we had this design: It's always a toss up as to how the manufacturer may interpret these designs for the 3D effect we use, and sometimes we can manage to get the design to somewhere that we're happy and doesn't take a huge amount of effort to get there.
We received the samples, and weren't super happy with the way it came out. You can see in the samples that this didn't really come across as "gem like". We asked for a do-over.
After a LOT of back and forth trying to figure out a way to make this design work, we've managed to renew the design. Here is a mockup 3D rendering of the new crystal pin. This design is more "crystal-like" with the facets, and includes some of Amunet's beautiful bits of flair as well as an iridescent crystal.
We love how much more gemlike it looks and we hope you love the updated design.
I know you're eager to get your pins and I hope in the next update we can tell you that we're starting to ship. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding! Our next update will also be close to when we're locking address so be sure to be on the lookout for that soon. ❤️
