First Crack: Choose any single pin!
Chipped Set: Pick your 3 favorite pins!
Full Cabinet: The complete Cracked & Kind collection, includes all 5 pins!

As the designs are already finished and a manufacturer found, there should not be many delays. Here are our estimates:
Pledge manager launches in March
Production starts in April
We get the items in May and start shipping within 2 weeks.
Changes in U.S. trade policy may occasionally affect shipments to U.S. backers. We monitor the situation closely, keep backers informed, and can pause shipments using EU-based storage if needed.
I’ve run crowdfunding campaigns before, but this is my first time designing enamel pins. The idea for Cracked & Kind came out of a kintsugi workshop I did with friends: working with broken pieces, repairing them, and realizing how much character those cracks can have. I’ve been a little obsessed with the idea ever since. Thanks for taking a look!
