Just popping in with a small update. All but 1 Dragem has been approved for mass production and I'm hoping to get a new sample of the last one sometime tonight or tomorrow! Hopefully the new glitter color I've picked will work out better and I can finalize that one too!!
Also as a heads up, I'll be collecting for the shipping and add-ons within a few days. So please be sure to check and make sure your information is all up to date! You'll have some time between now and fulfillment to correct any errors, but it's always best to check sooner rather than later!
Once I have all the pins in hand, I'll be checking them all and starting fulfillment. I'm hoping that will be by Nov/Dec, but it all depends on how long mass production and shipping it to me takes. I'll be popping in here and there when I get any updates.
EDIT: I completely forgot to show off the progress of these three pins while I was dealing with the main set!! I think they're looking great so far!
I'm back with some more progress photos for the pins! I just got these in last night and I can say that I think they look WAY better. I still have 3 that I'm going to have them continue tweaking however, so I'll have more info on those below.
Here are the new in progress photos!
Aquamarine
Sapphire
Pearl
Emerald
Blue Aqua
Citrine
Peridot
Diamond
Opal
These look so much better and I'm really pleased with them now! I'm very happy with how they look and they'll continue forward into mass production. The problem three are below. I'm happy with the placement, just not the colors. I'm trying to get the manu to pick different color glitter so fingers crossed that they'll be able to find better matching glitter colors.
Garnet
Amethyst
Ruby
Once I'm happy with these three, I'll send them into mass production as well and things can get moving! Of course when I get updated on them, I'll be sure to keep you updated too. Hopefully it won't take to long to get updates on these three.
Just got in some photos from my manufacturer of the first 2 pins! I'm having them tweak the glitter in some spots so they'll look a bit different than what these pictures look like, but it's thrilling to see a couple of them already!!
I'm having them use less glitter in the darker spots on Amethyst and less glitter in the green spots on Peridot. I think its to much as is and I'm not a fan. I'm hoping to hear back soon and hopefully get more photos in to see what they look like.
Amethyst
Peridot
I can't wait to see more of them in progress. When I do, I'll be sure to show those off as well!
Wanted to make a small update for you to show you that the washi tape and some of the stickers are already here!! Still waiting on pins, but those always take more time.
First though, there are still some of you who haven't filled out your surveys!! I need these done otherwise you will not be getting your rewards!! Please fill it out asap!!
We are now past the point where you cannot get refunds so please make sure you fill out your surveys so you get your lil Dragems! (They'll be sad if they can't go home to you!!)
I'll also be locking orders this week! Please check your pledge to make sure everything is correct!
I also wanted to let you know that the washi tape has a backing on it for you to peel off. I was very confused at first as I've never gotten a washi tape like that before, but honestly I really like it! I'll include photos so you can see what I mean!
I think this makes the washi tape stick so much better to things as it's not using up it's stickiness to itself! I'm very happy with that!
Here is the sticker sheet and some of the stickers! I apologize for the butts quality in photos. Photography is not my forte haha!

I haven't had a chance to take photos of the other stickers yet, but they look just as good as these do! I'll try to find some time to snap some photos of them too so you can see.
I will be unavailable today until this evening should you need an answer to a question. I'll be sure to answer you by tonight. I will also be out of town this Friday through Sunday (As well as the whole last week of this month). If you have any comments/questions over the weekend I'll be sure to get to them on Monday. You can email me at [email protected]
I'm looking forward to getting in progress photos of the pins to show you. Fingers crossed that will be soon! Thanks for hanging in there with me! -Fox
Just wanted to jump in here with a mini update since it's been about 2 weeks now!
IMPORTANT INFO:
There are still some surveys not completed! As of right now there are about 15-20% of you that have yet to fill it out! PLEASE PLEASE fill these out if you haven't yet!!
PAY OVER TIME ADOPTERS - you'll get your survey when you've paid in full.
Please double check your payments and your addresses!!
I've gotten a pretty good feel for the counts of everything and I've begun to get orders put in to manufacturers. I'm hoping to get photos of things at some point, so when/if I get them I'll be able to show them to you! Always exciting to see a new campaign come together >w<
While these little Dragems are being hatched, I do have another campaign launching August 6th! It'll be my last campaign for the year, so if you haven't checked it out or given it a follow, def do so! Click the banner below to go check it out!
That's about it for the mini update. We're entering into the waiting period for things, which is always so difficult because I want them now haha! Just gonna have to be patient and wait, oh well. I hope to have another update for you all soon, but don't be surprised if it takes a bit. When I hear news, you'll here it too.
Hope you're staying hydrated and cool (And warm and cozy to those in the Southern hemisphere!) Cheers, Fox
I've gotten most of the smoke tests back and with a few minor tweaks I feel confident enough to send out the rest of them! I'll be doin that in just a little bit so be sure to keep an eye out for it in you email. Be sure to check your spam folders too, just in case!
FILL OUT YOUR SURVEYS ASAP
I can not stress this enough! The sooner I get these back, the sooner I can see what all needs to be ordered and get that ball rollin! Filling out the survey also ensures I'm able to get you your rewards!!
*Those who backed the support tier will not be getting a survey
PAY OVER TIME BACKERS
You will get your survey once you're paid in full. The survey will be sent to you automatically once that 4th installment is paid.
FAILED PAYMENTS
Please double check your payments to make sure they've gone through!! You should receive an email telling you if your pledge went through or if it failed. I, personally, like to go directly to my backerkit page to check and urge you to do the same. Failed payments will not get their rewards!
If you know someone who missed out on the campaign and still wants to get one, be sure to send them to the pre-order store! There's still a little bit of time before I close that up! CLICK HERE I'll be closing up the Pre-order store the 28th of July. **If you backed the campaign DO NOT use the pre-order store. You will be charged twice if you do!**
SHIPPING
Remember that this is a whole separate charge!! It will be at the end of your survey with any add-ons you would like. This also needs to be paid before your rewards can be sent to you so double check that this goes through! Failed payments will not get their rewards!
Future campaigns:
I do have another upcoming campaign launching next month!! If you love cats and carbs, or know somebody who does, check out my Kneady Bakery!!<-Click here or the banner image above.
