Checking in with y'all with some updates and some info - I'll start with the campaign plugs, and then finish with info on shipping & some updates for those who ordered custom peekers as well as pin boards!

My friend is running a SUPER EXCITING campaign to get these septum rings made - BOTH designs come in faux and 16g clicker varieties - I personally wear one of Midnight Springs' faux rings at a lot of events I attend (the celestia in silver) and HIGHLY recommend them :) There are only 20 hours left in the campaign however, and they are trying very hard to hit their next stretch goal of $2400 (requiring just under $800 more in backing).

If septums are your jam, with or without the piercing, this is definitely a campaign for you to back!! Click the image above, or CLICK HERE to go to the campaign to pledge!

Additionally, I will be launching ANOTHER pin campaign in October in collaboration with many other artists as part of PINTOBER! Click the image below or CLICK HERE to sign up to follow the project to be notified when it launches (October 7th) and for other updates regarding it!

Now to get into things regarding THIS campaign - 

I have shipped out roughly half of the packages! Those who ordered custom peekers - there was a massive delay in getting those printed (the company I use is run by one person, who had some medical issues for about a month after I placed my order), and then they came to me in the wrong size...I have placed the re-order and will hopefully have those in hand in the next week. As soon as those are situated I can send them out!

Those with pinboards - I have FINALLY worked out the last few snags in printing, and will be sending images of the finished boards for approval in the next week as well! If at that point there are any color changes you'd like to make, please let me know. Once those are finalized, your packages will be shipped out.

I want to extend an EXTREMELY grateful THANK YOU for all of your patience with this process, and for being so kind to me during my first ever crowdfunding campaign and foray into making enamel pins. I am extremely excited to do it all over again with my next campaign, and hope y'all will be coming along with me for that ride!

As always, if you have any questions, concerns, comments, or otherwise, please don't hesitate to reach out via comment, e-mail ([email protected]) or through instagram! I will be putting out probably 2 more updates to announce additional package shipments. 

Hello! Short update today - sorry it took so long, but I am finally fully better and ready to start sending packages! I will be charging cards within the next 48 hours - in that time I will begin prepping packages to mail.

Thank you all so much for your patience with all of this! Despite all the bumps along the way, I am only a bit behind on my original timeline 😅 lesson learned for my next campaign!

Speaking of - I am planning to participate in Pintober this year! My theme will be spooky space - so if you’re interested in that theme or any of the cuurrently designed pins, feel free to follow along with the teaser page by clicking the image or THIS LINK HERE.

So I've returned from Otakon, and brought myself a wonderful gift - Covid 🙃 in order to ensure I don't pass that on to any of you, I am going to wait until I am recovered to pack any orders. I hate to delay things even further, but I would feel terrible if I somehow infected someone by touching things with my sickly hands 😭

That being said, when I did get to sorting some of the pins to bring with me to Otakon, I realized that what I received, while it still looked very cute and resembled the original drawings, did not match what I ordered. Because this was my first pin order I agreed to UV printing the details onto the pins...I, however, did NOT realize this meant they would be UV printing EVERYTHING including the paw color. So essentially unless the part had glitter or in the case of the jelly peets, was translucent, it was just UV printed onto the metal. 
I am extremely upset with myself and the manu for taking advantage of my naivety in pinmaking, but at this point there isn't anything I can do other than use a different manu in the future. I've included a couple close ups to demonstrate what I mean to you all. 
The pins themselves still look ADORABLE and I'm excited to have them - but I also wanted to be fully transparent with you all and apologize for the difference in final appearance from what I thought I would be sending to you. 

I will hopefully have another update in the coming 7-10 days that I am feeling well enough to not worry about passing along the virus to anyone. I should also have updates on all custom peekers for those who ordered in the next couple of days, for final approval before I order the stickers themselves!

A week earlier than I expected, the pins arrived TODAY! I am exceptionally excited, they all look GREAT so far (I've only been able to open the 2 boxes and pull out 1 of each to examine however) and I've attached photos below for you all to see!

Some important updates below the cut - if you ordered washi, a custom pin board, or a custom peeker, there will be information for you!

Hi all! I wanted to give an update since it's been quite a while - sorry about that! Had two large conventions and life events sucking up all my time, but I do have some additional pin updates - the printing layers have been shown to me an approved (though I am waiting on the orange peet and booties still...), and because I forgot if I mentioned before either - I have received all freebie stickers, the stickers of all the peets, and the lanyards! Washi is still in the works but I will include images of all the items I've received so far.

I am hoping to go through orders and begin prepping any that did NOT order pins or washi, as I will be able to pack and ship those out very soon if so! For those with custom kitty peekers, I hope to have updates on drawing progress in the coming weeks as well, and will e-mail updates for feedback as I complete each piece. 

In these images, keep in mind that the pins are still missing their final epoxy layer!

As always, if you have any questions feel free to reach out to me through here, e-mail ([email protected]) or on any of my social media platforms! Thanks so much and enjoy the images :) They will be backer-only to prevent too many images in your e-mail, so please log in to view!

I ordered the monster peets AFTER I ordered the shiny stickers, as well, and realized I forgot to throw the spiral peet in there - so will be ordering those and hopefully have an update for that soon as well!
