I am beyond excited to share that production for the Death Mother pins officially kicks off this coming Monday!
There is truly no better feeling than seeing these designs finally move into the manufacturing stage. This project has been such a journey, and I am so grateful to every one of you for making this a reality. Your support means the world to me.
Now that things are moving at the factory, I should have some "first looks" and behind-the-scenes photos to share with you in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for those updates as the physical samples start to take shape!
The campaign surveys for Death Mother will lock on April 15th. Add-ons and fees will also be charged.
First and foremost, a massive thank you to everyone who has already filled out their survey! Your quick responses help us stay on schedule and keep the momentum going.
If you haven’t completed your survey yet, please do so now. 🙏 As soon as the final numbers are locked in, production will begin.
Pin Selections: Once the 48-hour window closes, your pin choices will be locked. Make sure you’ve selected exactly the variants you want!
Shipping Addresses: Don’t worry if you’re planning a move. While item selections are locking, you will still be able to update your shipping address right up until we are ready to ship out rewards.
Thank you all for seeing the vision in this design and for being such an incredible community.
I am absolutely blown away by how quickly you all have jumped into the surveys. In just 5 days, we have already reached 74% completion! You guys are truly amazing—thank you so much for being so on top of things. It makes the logistics of moving into production so much smoother.
I’ve been keeping a close eye on the tally for the Death Mother colorways, and it’s getting interesting! I love the suspense of a close race! I thought you all might enjoy a "behind-the-scenes" peek at how the counts are looking so far.
💀The Death Mother Leaderboard💀 While we still have about 18 pin choices left to be finalized (and your choices and add-ons can still be changed for 9 more days) The Pre-Order Store is also open for 9 more days for anyone who missed the original campaign!
Here is how the current standings look for our seven color variants:
Necromancer- 24
Scorched- 19
Northern lights- 19
Candy- 18
Sunset- 13
The Siren-4
Nebula-4
I do also have a little sneak peek from my manu at how the Candy variant pastels, with opal glitter will look on her Rainbow Ano metal (This is not the death mother pin) If you haven't filled out your survey yet, don't worry! You still have time to make your selections. Keep an eye on your inbox for the link so we can get your rewards locked in.
I am so incredibly excited to see these final numbers. Thank you for making Devious Sugar Studios' latest project such a success!
Over the next couple of days, please watch for the email (and peek in your spam folder just to be safe).
Quick Payment Check: We had a handful of payments fail to process. If you could quickly verify your payment status, it’ll help us get your rewards to you as fast as possible!
Mini Pin Preferences: In the survey, you’ll find a spot to request a specific color for your free mini pin. While I’ll try my best to match everyone's request, please keep in mind that availability is limited. Full-set backers will be prioritized to ensure they receive a complete set of all colors.
Don’t hesitate to message me if you need any help!
Our campaign has officially come to a close! Now it’s time for the fun part! 🎉
To every single person who pledged, shared the project, or simply saw the beauty in these designs—Thank you! This project means everything to me. As an artist, seeing my art resonate with so many of you is a dream come true. Your support allows me to keep creating, and I am so grateful to have you on this journey with me.
What Happens Next?
Surveys: Keep an eye on your inbox! Surveys will begin going out within the next couple of days. This is where you’ll select your specific pin variants and provide your shipping details.
The Two-Week Goal: My goal is to have all surveys completed within two weeks. The faster we get these back, the faster I can submit the final counts to the manufacturer.
Production: As soon as those surveys are tallied, production begins immediately!
I will be providing regular updates throughout the entire production process. From the first metal molds to the final polishing and glitter applications, you’ll be the first to see the progress.
Thank you again for supporting my art and my business. I can't wait to get these pins to each and every one of you!
