Monthly Update: August - sample progress
Sample Progress
1st round Samples arrived in the mail yesterday for me to inspect in person, hence the delay in getting out a monthly update. For the most part they look goo...
A metal bookmark tier ($10), add-on for one metal bookmark ($10) and a pair of both Sakura and Hops bookmarks ($18) add-on have been added to the campaign already due to an unexpectedly large amount of backers saying they would want one! (57% out of a pool of over 100 already) For those pledging to just the bookmark tier with no pins, you can add an additional metal bookmark as an add-on for $9 of your choice (exclusive to this tier) since I'll be able to save some on shipping by using a flat mailer instead of a box.
Printed Bookmarks will likely still be added, but I will only be adding them if I have time to complete the art before the campaign ends. I will update if/when that happens. If you want to vote on which designs will be added if I can first do Iris, Cornflower, Chrysanthemum, and Foxglove... you can do so at this Discord link HEREwhere I already have a poll running.
Slight update to Sakura dragon, where I forgot to fill in the deep red on the back.
No sample updates yet for the remaining designs, though they have been in contact with us. Was hoping we'd get something ready in March for the monthly update, but nothing was ready for a photo before Spring Break. Though with my other Pin Club stuff starting to be approved for production, there is little holding these designs from being done sampling for lock-down. Hoping for an update any day now.

Reminders:
Discord since that makes it easier to contact me quickly if I've managed to forget to update here. Link HERE to the Discord server.Which is dramatically faster than here, and faster than email.
Survey will stay open though until samples are complete
Until Survey lock, you can manually update your address, add more pins / stickers, or select different stuff if you have changed your mind. You can even message me if you want to swap around your stickers for pins to some degree.
The Pre-Order store will be open until samples finalize as well. So if you missed out, you still have a chance to get them steeply discounted.
If you are a backer that can't find your survey, feel free to email me so I can try to help you out. Otherwise you can try this first: Survey Recovery Page email: [email protected]

Progress is still going annoyingly slow right now, we are still waiting on updated samples with the pearlescent revisions under the clear enamel. They have been prioritizing my older Patreon pin club project (from 2024) that was the most behind, which is why samples are taking so long. I'll post as soon as we get something with a photo update from the manufacturer of all the sample updates when I get them. However, I do have these 6 at the half-way point without their screen printing effects, UV effects, and fills. As you can see, overall they are looking so far a ton better than the last visual update. Hopefully samples will be completely done soon.
Thank you for your continued patience.
