Project Update: Production Updates
Hello all! There isn't a *ton* to talk about this update, as I unfortunately have had a lot of back-and-forth with one of my manufacturers (the new one) regarding cost for the bulk of the pins; the originally quoted price has gone up significantly for some reason, and so I am attempting to whittle that down as much as possible, so I might be able to get all designs produced still (including the potion pins).
Some of the pins are being produced by my previous manufacturer, and those are being worked on at the moment - I've attached a few photos of those as they are in progress. There was a slight change to the pigment used in the crystal ball pin, and due to how diamond dust powder is used, I could not have translucent enamel in the bottom of the rainbow pin; if this change is an issue for anyone who chose this pin, please feel free to let me know and I'm happy to allow a swap - I apologize for not asking prior to approving the design change, but unfortunately as the only option then was to use opaque enamel, I went ahead and approved it.
I did ask to have less sparkle put in the top of the dark nickel & silver nickel crystal balls, so that the metal shines through more as in the original samples I was sent. I've only received one photo of the freebie pin so far, but it looks good and I'm excited to see the final result!
The graveyard witch pins are in progress as well - I had to make a change to the purple dress witch's hair (it was WAY too dark) and the skin on the blue dress witch was also much darker than I intended, but I have not received any updated images of those yet; once I do I will pass them along.
Thank you all for your patience; I hope to have some more exciting updates for you all soon!
