Project Update: Just a quick progress update!
I've been hoping to post something more exciting but it's been a while so I just wanted to make a quick update on how things are going!
Poes are in production of course-
I've been not liking how the envelopes have been looking though.
I've asked the manufacturer of schoolboy Poe's bag to make Poe's Envelope 2.0 and am finalizing the samples for. It's taken a lil bit to coordinate with my plush manufacturer, and making sure we're all on board with the magnets facing the right way... finding the right materials to look cleanly made for something so small...
Previous Poe envelopes were made of felt and were a bit flimsy, and the felt hearts were difficult to reliably be cut in the same shape, so these ones will be much higher quality! They're a thin PU leather with a heart patch. I'm also ordering a ton of extras. I know they're prone to getting lost so now if Poe misplaces his letter he'll be able to get a new one!
What else-
I'm not sure how many of you are from my social media things, but a bit from my personal life, I was able to visit my friends for the first time in years the other month which was during the plushie campaign. It got me motivated to work hard catching up with all of the million little tasks I need to settle before moving forward and I've been kind of obsessed with getting that all taken care of. So I apologize for not yet posting the designs of the freebie items! I'm planning to post them this week. I also unexpectedly just had to move my work room so I'm just about finished settling in and reorganizing. Spent several hours these days counting a million pins and doing data entry and all sorts of mindless tasks. But with those things nearly behind me, I've pretty much only got "draw," "pack orders," and "advertise" on the to-do list so I'm ready for all these Poes to get over here! I've also set aside all of the add-on items ordered, put all the lil pins on backing cards, got the goodie bags together, so that's another thing that'll make shipping go smoothly.
Please message me at [email protected] if you've got any questions! Addresses are still able to be edited, and you'll receive a message from Backerkit when I'm getting ready to lock addresses
Thank you as always!
