I'm a part of Early Summerween, a Backerkit-hosted event! Backerkit is "pledge now pay later"; you don't get charged until after the campaign ends and the base goal is met! Since I have multiple designs, I've divided them into base goal and "stretch goals", stretch goals are gradually unlocked once the listed funding amounts are met, adding more pins to the rewards over time!
For our group event, there's a lot of fun freebies you can get just for helping us all reach our base goals!
Back five projects for physical rewards and receive a spooky pin set! Each pin is designed by one of our participating artists. See the rewards below
Back TWO pins from each project, and receive a second fun pin set! Using the logo designed by our very own Waxwing Cedrorum - each colorway is designed by one of the participating artists.
Back each project for 2 or more pins and receive the above batty pin set!
Thank you so much for checking out this campaign! This set of designs means a lot to me, I hope you love them too!🖤
This is my first Backerkit campaign, but I've been running Chocolat Chaud (pronounced show-cola-show), a small business based in Japan, for around 11 years.
• Backerkit will not charge you unless the campaign reaches its base goal. • You can change your pledge amount at any time before the campaign ends. • This also means that if we haven't met a stretch goal you're interested in, to help it unlock you can pledge for something already available, then change your pledge once that goal is met! • Surveys will be sent out once the campaign is over so you can pick which designs you would like. Please ensure you have access to your BackerKit email address to prevent any delays in receiving your rewards. • Shipping fees are collected post-campaign in pledge manager. • You will receive updates on production and fulfillment as they progress, through your Backerkit email or the Community tab on the campaign page.
Unless stated otherwise, all the pins will feature: • Hard enamel • Silver plating • Backstamp • Recessed metal details on the frames • At least 2 pin posts (Aside from the freebies)

For backers of pins from all 5 Early Summerween campaigns, this design is my freebie:
If you pledge to each Early Summerween campaign for a minimum of two pins (at least 10 pins in total), you will get a set of coin-style logo pins from us! Here is my colorway:
There are a few add-ons available for this campaign!
☆Stickers☆
They are both 4" high, glittery vinyl stickers.
☆Celestial Window Necklaces☆ These gothic architecture inspired necklaces are made of platinum plated sterling silver and feature a beautiful gemstone chain with obsidian or moonstone beads. The chain is approximately 26.8" long + 2.6" between the chain and the pendant, and the pendant is approximately 2.25" high. This necklace is tarnish resistant, and nickel and lead free.
☆Magnetic pin clutchs☆ Magnetic pin clutchs to turn your enamel pins into magnets are also available as add-ons!
You can also of course add extra pins to your pledge~
Since I'm in Japan, you'll notice the currency for my project is set to yen.
Shipping to me from my manufacturer is a bit less expensive than it would be to western countries, so with that in mind, here is a pie chart approximating where the funds will go.
Please be advised that these are estimates only. Shipping costs will depend on the final weight of your order.
• Japan : 700¥~1400¥ • Canada : 1750¥~2900¥ (12~20 USD) • United States : 2300¥~3200¥ (16~22 USD) • Everywhere else : 2300¥~3800¥ (16~26 USD)
Please make sure there are no mistakes in your shipping address before ordering. If an order comes back to me due to an incorrect shipping address or if the package is unclaimed, the order will be re-sent at the backer's expense.
Notice for international backers: International mail service has been suspended for some countries. Backers are responsible for confirming if service is suspended. If I am unable to ship to you I will refund your pledge, minus any fees and taxes.
Import duties, taxes, VAT, etc. are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These fees are the backer’s responsibility. I will not be able to refund orders that are not accepted because of these fees.
Shipping to the UK and the EU is at your own risk, and only orders above 135£ (160€) can be accepted. I'm currently unable to ship to Germany.
