Project Update: 📣 Surveys - Everything you need to know! 📣

Surveys

Surveys are being sent today at 12pm EST. Please check your email throughout the day for a survey email from BackerKit.

Lockdown and Charge Dates

The lockdown for these surveys is January 27th, 2025.

Once surveys are locked down your card will be charged for shipping fees and any add-ons. If for any reason you cannot finish your survey and make your payment by the 27th, no worries. We understand that sometimes life gets in the way, or you might be waiting for a payday, or you need more time to decide. The deadline to guarantee you receive your design choices is February 3rd. If you aren't ready by the 27th, simply don't complete the last step of the survey. The last step of the survey is the confirmation page where you can review all your details and enter in your card details for shipping costs, if you're not ready to submit, just exit the page and you can go back to it later. If you choose to not submit your survey by the 27th, the next charge date won't be until February 3rd, 2025. 

After February 3rd you will still be able to complete and submit your survey, but we may not be able to guarantee that you receive all your design choices. If we run out of one of your chosen designs while packing orders, we will reach out to you to choose a new design. It's very rare that this happens as we usually order more than extra of each pin. It's better to get your survey done sooner, and before Feb 3rd. 

Pledge charged failed

If your original pledge charge failed, or you cancelled it thinking it was fraud, you will still receive a survey. The survey will allow you to make up this failed charge, so you can still receive your rewards.

Add-Ons

The purpose of the add-on section is to add extra items you may want shipped with your pledge. Add-ons are entirely optional, if you do not want extra items, please skip this step. Please note that any items added from this add-on section will ship with your pledge level, and not before.

You'll notice that as backers you receive a discounted price on most pin add-ons. 

Stretch Goal Add-ons


You will see a few pin designs, stickers, and other items set as stretch goal add-ons. This just means that there is a minimum number of orders we need to meet to manufacturer that item. Some of the stretch goal add-ons were designs that didn't fit with the campaign, or they were too specific, or I just thought of the design after the campaign ended. If we reach the stretch goal quantity you will be charged for that item and it will be included in your order. If we do not reach a stretch goal for a specific item, we first determine whether we can manufacture it anyway, and if we cannot the item is removed from your order and you are not charged for it. 

Changing shipping address


You will be able to change your shipping address up until the lockdown. After the lock down date, if you need to update your shipping address, please email [email protected], and we can manually update your shipping address. Please let us know as soon as possible that you need to update your address so we can amend the address before your package is sent. If you fail to notify us of an address change, and your package is returned to us, we will ship it again, however, you will have to pay another shipping charge. 

We will post an update for last call address changes before we start shipping packages.

Pre-Order Store


There is a pre-order store for this campaign. The purpose of the pre-order store is to allow anyone who did not pledge to the campaign a chance to order these pins. You can access the pre-order store with this link.

Please note that the pre-order store is separate from your survey. All items in the pre-order store are in the add-ons section of your survey. On occasion backers have confused the pre-order store with their survey and placed a second order by accident. 


If you have any questions regarding your survey or any of the above information, please email us at [email protected]


Cheers,
Liz

Project Update: Minor Design Change

Hey everyone,

Ahead of sending out the smoke test I just want to alert you to a minor design change. The "smoke/mist" coming out of the cauldrons was originally translucent, sandblasted enamel. This means, colored, translucent enamel, placed over top of metal. When designing them I forgot to take into account that the plating on these pins is black nickel. Any time you add a colored translucent enamel over black nickel it comes out murky and way darker than intended. Since the green and teal in these designs are meant to be bright, I've change it instead to glitter enamel. The below picture shows a mockup with the glitter. 

Cheers,
Liz

Project Update: Smoke Tests, Surveys, and Future Project Theme Poll

Hey everyone,

Smoke Tests

My surveys were approved by Backerkit so I'll be sending out the smoke test tonight. The smoke test is where we send out just 5% of the surveys and let it run for a bit to ensure there are no major issues with the survey. I typically wait about 12-24 hours before I send out all of the surveys. There's also no way to know who is in the smoke test as it's completely random. 

When I send out all of the surveys I'll send out another update with all the pertinent information. 


March 2025 Project

In March I'll be launching a new project in collaboration with a few other pin makers. The theme for that project is undecided at the moment. The general direction I've been leaning is a mashup of book readers/bookish themes and the seven deadly sins. 

I'm asking ya'll what kind of themes you want to see. Remember to keep themes on the more general side, for example: "dogs", and not "I only want french bulldog pins".

Keep in mind that the poll only lets you choose one option, and I've left it quite open ended with the "other option" Please feel free to leave your theme suggestions in the comments.

I wanted to thank you for the amazing work you do. I have been backing your pin campaigns since Own Your Stigma Part 2. These campaigns bring me so much joy and excitement. I receive so many compliments on these pins and I love sharing these positive affirmative messages. I know there's a lot of uncertainty ahead with another T presidency. Thank you for being a light!
