All surveys are out - thank you for the speedy response from smoke test folks. If anyone runs into issues during this phase, please reach out via e-mail ([email protected]), Discord, or any of my social media accounts; or, comment below!
Hello folks! Smoke test surveys have gone out - I will wait 24 hours or whenever majoriry of smoke tests have been completed, I will send out the rest of the surveys.
I have included a single listing for ALL planet shaped pins - the amount required to "fund" it is listed at 75 checkouts, but because the price ranges from $10 to $77, we could require significantly less than that amount or significantly more. Depending on the amount funded I will also unlock some of the flags vs needing ALL to be unlocked at once - so if you want to see planets made available this canpaign vs waiting until next year, be sure to add the planets youd like to your cart!
Because I'm not sure how planets will fund yet, I am not allowing mix and match in the survey - if enough planets are purchased, this option will become available and I will make an announcement with a google survey; those wishing to swap a star to a planet (for planets & stars) will be able to do so at this point. If you would like a full planets set, this will be an option as well.
THE PRE ORDER STORE IS ALSO OPEN
If you missed the campaign but still want some pins, or wanted planets, placing an order via the pre order store is the best way to get in on these! I will not be ordering a lot of extras given how many ondividual colors there will be, so I won't have a ton of extras to choose from once orders are sent out!
If you habe any questions, comments, concerns, or issues with the survey, please dont hesitate to reach out via comment below or via e-mail ([email protected]) or my social media accounts/discord!
Thank you all again - can't wait to have these little pins in hand!!
Hello folks! Thank you for helping make my first solo project a success 💖
Your cards should begin charging, and I will be working on getting the survey out to you asap - initially I planned 2 weeks for this, but if its done sooner I will release it. The survey will have the option to purchase many of my previous pins as well as freebies if you did not qualify for them during rhe campaign.
Please be sure to correct any failed charges on your cards, as after 2 weeks when funds reach me, those cannot be corrected and unpaid pledges will NOT receive their rewards.
Happy pride again, and I look forward to getting you all your pins in a few months' time!
Hello everyone! I decided to make a few changes to stretch goals, as well as add on a pledge tier for add-ons only for those who want to support the campaign but don’t necessarily want the star pins (or planets, if we reach those goals). Please note that you must pledge for at least $10 of items (same cost as lowest pledge tier) to qualify for freebies. I also decided that I wanted to squeeze in several of the flags from the polls pre-launch as stars before the planets goals, rather than afterward, so that those options would be available for everyone interested.
Due to these changes, and it happening/being announced past the early bird deadline, I am allowing anyone who pledges until 7 PM EST (4 PM PST) to qualify for the early bird sticker. This is something I will need to manually enact on my end, so if it doesn’t show up, don’t panic - it will be added to your order by the time things ship!
So, a new stretch goal #2 is posted below, and goals #3 and now #4 will have slightly updated funding amounts! We are close to the second stretch goal being unlocked - just under $400 away. Once that goal is reached, the “oops, all planets!” pledge tier will become available.
For those who may have pledged to the all-in or oops, all stars tiers, you will be able to choose which specific colors you would like (since this adds 35 new colors to choose from!); there will also be an add-on item specific to those pledge tiers that adds all additional 35 colors of stars to your pledge at a discount. Once the additional colors of planets are available, that planets-only option will become available as well.
I also have a sticker design I put together below - this was originally going to be a pin design for stretch goals much later on if the project funded more than I had originally planned it to fund, but I am enjoying the design enough that as wanted to offer it to you all in this campaign anyway. Some minor changes may be made to the design as I adapted this sticker pretty quick this morning from the original pin design (details that can show up in & translate well to print often don’t in pins, so simplification is needed).
These planets will be 3” wide, and will be available in as many flag colors as I can manage!
When I do a part 2 to this theme, likely next year (either for the March pride project, or another in a June), these planets will definitely also be a part of the campaign - I wanted this one to be a bit smaller & simpler than previous projects to wrap up the year, and working with my manu on something with so many different colors to fill in would likely end up a nightmare, I’m sure 😅.
The bi flag is always my go-to default lol, but other flags will have a similar, artsy/gradient type vibe!
You will be able to request the specific flag or flags you’d like in the post-campaign survey & I will be working on art for a bunch of flags between now & when surveys go out so you have a visual of what flag you’re choosing will look like!
Thank you for all of your support on this project - it is definitely very different from my usual collections, so I am super stoked that it’s something folks are interested in!!
I likely won't be making any updates until closer to the end of the early bird in 48 hours, but as pins are unlocked I will make additional pledge levels available.
I'll be keeping an eye on things for any questions y'all might have so comment away 💖 🏳️🌈🌈
