My manufacturer has come back at me with new prices for the bag inserts.
It would mean editing the cost for you all by another 10-12$ per.. Which I really really REALLY do not want to do, and I’m actively trying to negotiate with them to break down the costs per set.
The only way I could keep the current cost is if you were all okay with accepting just ONE panel at the currently set price rather than a set of three.. this would be for everything except the candle early birds. The added on later /extra sets would be edited as well.
I’d love to hear back from you with opinions on this.
My only other option would be to try and see how much it would cost ( which might end up being the same ) to attempt making them myself with my sister’s help as she’s a seamstress with more experience than I.. but I wouldn’t also be able to Guaranteed the same level of finish on the pieces if I go that route.
I’ll edit this post with updates on any negotiation I can get through with my manufacturer, but in the mean time please let me know what routes you’d like me to do..
A better shot of the colors in the mini lantern size! Full art swatches will be produced and started with me shortly! I’ll update this post with them when I get ‘em
Reaching out to let everyone know I’m locking down final counts now so I can get orders placed appropriately with my manufacturers!
We are still in a pretty hefty list of failed payments though, and that doesn’t include all of you in the pay over time darlings! You’re well accommodated, and I am doing what I can to over order a few bags of each so there’s plenty of coverage !
Please do what you can to Correct you’re payments soon, I’ve got over 20 currently!
The preorder shop will also be closing soon so last chance to grab goodies while possible!
Sending a notice out to let you all know that The smoke tests for surveys have gone out! I’m hoping to send out the surveys in full in a few days from now if the smokes go off cleanly!
I also wanted to remind everyone that we’ve got about 26 orders that still need to be remedied for error of some variety! If you can fix em up It will help me significantly as the quantities failed puts us on the edge of keeping tiers open or needing to close them off😰
Also I have been made aware of some Shipping price issues showing up on the end of pins? I apologize for that and know that it should be showing up at 8$ and bags should be between 18-25$ depending on your add ons!
Please please continue to reach out to me if you notice this not being accurate!
Also I’m going through pirate ship on these boxes and these are the rough quotes I’m being shown for the big bag boxes!
I’m excited to share a quick prototype preview of the cardholder that was just sent to me! Reminder that the bits put down with paper will be totally embroidered on the cardholder vs the embossing and embroidery line on the bags.
I am really happyI got a preview for these before we drop the surveys! It’s a nice way to show it off for those who may have been on the fence!
