Project FAQ
Witch's Kitchen is an enamel pin crowdfunding campaign! With your support, we are creating cute crafting components straight out of the kitchen of our very own Whimsycraft Witch. Each pin is hand drawn, hand enameled, and has glow in the dark elements!
Great Question! We've partnered with some AMAZING artists for PinTober, a celebration of all that's spoopy, and as a reward for supporting 3 or more campaigns, you'll receive a FREE pin from EACH campaign you've backed! Make sure to back us, and then head on over to the PinTober page to select 2 or more other campaigns you'd like to support! Your mini-pins will be added automatically after the campaign ends, in the pledge manager.
Another great question! We've actually completed a successful pin campaign before, and you can check it out here - https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/bookwyrm-games/fungal-familiars In addition we've also run a successful crowdfunding campaign previously in collaboration with The Dungeon Artist to produce the Quest Chest. We also have an established digital presence at www.bookwyrmgames.com and we're at most of the Fancon and Comic Con conventions that happen in Western North America, so we're not going anywhere :) The designs are complete and ready to go, we just need your help to get these pins made!
As a thank you to everyone who finds us early and helps get us going, we'll be offering a special reward! Anyone who backs within the first 48 hours will receive their very own Witch's Familiar, a spellbinding Froggo!
If you back my campaign and The Dungeon Master Dragon, and His Kobold Krew campaign before both campaigns end, then you will qualify for our special cross collab incentive.

We wanted to offer everyone the opportunity to have us design a CUSTOM PIN! We realize that this tier is more expensive, because it's a lot of work to create custom artwork like this, so we wanted to make it a little bit more accessible. For this tier we have opened up a Pay Over Time option to allow you to split your payment into multiple installments! Backers who select pay over time will pay their balance in four monthly payments, beginning after the campaign ends. No additional fees or interest will be applied to your order. Subsequent payments will be charged monthly Some things to note - 1. Rewards will not qualify for shipment until you have paid in full. 2. Any partial payments made are not eligible for a refund. 3. You will not be able to access the pledge manager survey until after you have paid in full.
Shipping is weird at the moment, and that moment has stretched into three or more years if we're being honest. We think we've got a pretty good handle on what it costs to ship things though through our main business, so we feel fairly confident in our projection of around $19 CAD ($14 USD) to pretty much anywhere in North America. Elsewhere is likely to be slightly more, but we're going to do our best to keep the numbers down! Shipping will be charged after the campaign ends, in order to get the most accurate numbers. We expect it's likely that the cost will go down from what's been suggested here, but we're being cautious!
No problem! We're always happy to chat :) Please feel free to post a comment with your question and we'll respond ASAP. If you'd prefer to ask something privately, you can reach us at - [email protected]
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
