December END OF THE YEAR UPDATES
Hi everyone! I am just realizing I was not putting monthly updates in the correct tab (oops) but wanted to hop on and give some final updates before the end of the year! I w...
Our totes have completed production and are on the way to us! As stated at the beginning of this money, all totes will be shipped out first. If you had tote(s) and sweater(s), you will receive seperate packages containing each.
I have been trying to wait things out before making a statement, as it's hard to come up with a plan as the situations are consistently changing by the day. But my policy is always transparency, so I will share with you all what the current plan is - please forgive me if the situation changes BEFORE we reach a conclusion.
It's no secret that my items (like most clothing) are made in China. A lot of crowdfunded items are, paper goods like board games, or other textiles like plushies. This is just the reality of manufacturing here. The tariff situation has changed almost daily - and as of writing this we are at 245%. Of course this is all unprecedented, and was not accounted for in the original crowdfunding budget.
So here is my current plan:
Purses These are the closest to completing production. I am working with my manufacturer to see how much shipping will be, and within my capabilities, I will likely use the shipping funds collected and my own personal money saved/raised to bring the items over.
Sweaters A group of my friends (I have recently dubbed Slay Team 6) has offered to help on rotation to make all these sweaters in house with me. Knowing this, I have begun sampling fabrics and options to have sweater fabric made onto. I will be making mockups, and posting updates here. I am monitoring this situation daily, and am hoping to be able to decide by May 1 if in-house production is the path we choose.
This will likely end up being entirely out of pocket, as the money for the sweaters has been used to start their factory production already. But I want to ensure first that everyone gets the products they paid for. We have currently paused the factory. production on these, the amount of them needed to ship over would definitely just be something I cannot afford nor did I account for (who could've?!).
Again, thank you for your patience, sorry for the delay on all of this, and I hope most of all, that all of you are safe and well.

As far as product updates go, things are still in production, currently it looks like the Purses will be the first to finish - as a thanks for your patience, I will be sending out all purses, even if you are waiting on a sweater! So you will receive 2 packages if you ordered both. The current timeline looks like purses will be completed around May, and we will have a similar timeline to the shipping of the Bells and Whistles campaign where totes completed first.
The sweaters may complete shortly after the purses, and put us on a similar timeline as the first Tanjiro inspired line from 2022/2023. Either way, things are moving along as expected.
Again, thank you all so much for your patience. I am in and out of office for the next few weeks to vend and work various shows. If you see me, say hello!!
Echonyx will also be undergoing a small rebrand in the next few months, the name and products will remain the same/similar. But we will be having a new look to our tables and brand!
Just wanted to give an update that I will be out of office from Feb 3-Feb 19, there will likely be no major updates during the month of February, but I will be sure to include any if necessary.
Due to being out of office, I will also be pushing back the next Tote campaign into March!
Please direct all inquiries to [email protected], and I am happy to get back to you ASAP.
Just wanted to give a few updates as production for these gets rockin and rollin! There likely won't be *too* much going on until the springtime, so while I am planning on giving monthly updates here, please don't stress if things aren't posted exactly one month on the date.
This week is technically my "vacation" week, as I got to vend at 2 cons pretty much back to back, but I wanted to make sure everyone is informed on our current timeline. Emails and other forms of contact will be returned next week when I am back in office.
When I return next week, items will *officially* begin entering production. Now, this is my first time working with apparel, so I cannot give you an accurate timeline on when we can expect those sweaters. Often times the manufacturers tell us one thing but it is often not correct, and I do not like to rush them and risk lower quality. Historically, totes have always completed first, so lets see if that happens this time!
As we entered the new year, manufacturers did inform me of some increasing of costs, much like everything else in the world. To make up some of the increased funds, you'll likely see me working a table at a lot of in-person events, selling handmade items in person and online- etc etc. Business as usual for me, but all of this will go towards picking up some of the gaps so we don't have anymore delays in production or shipping.
Other than that, there are not really any huge changes or news. If you see me working a table or event near you, please come say hello!
Thanks for your patience, support and I can't wait to get these products out to all of you this year <3
