Hello again, 

This is just to remind you that surveys will be going out at the end of this week!

If you still need to update your payment card info, there is still plenty of time.  

I can't wait to get these pins into your hands.  I know you will love them!

Kindest regards, 
Joshua R Pinkas

Hello again, 

The campaign is now completed.  We are now in the two week waiting period that BackerKit prescribes before the surveys are sent out.  

I am truly thankful for all of you who supported this project.  It was a fair bit bigger than my typical 'Something beautiful' campaigns that I tend to have one or two of each year, so I really am thankful for each backer of this project.

I know it wasn't the biggest project here, but you have helped me bring somehtign very dear to my heart into the world.  I am sure that these pins will become treasured mementos, gifts, and keepsakes for many many people.  

Thank you again, and if you have any questions or concerns before the survey goes out please let me know!

Kindest regards,

Hello again, 

There are less than 48 hours left in this campaign!  So, while the campaign is winding down, I am winding up all of the backend logistics!

Approximately 14 days after the campaign ends you will receive an survey through Backerkit.  This survey is where you will select your pins, provide a shipping address, select any add-ons and pay for shipping!

Because I had a narrow window to work with regarding lower tariffs on goods coming form my overseas production partner, the pins are already on their way to me now.  Unless everyone wants multiples of the exact same letter, we should be fine any not have any issues.  

I expect to ship them out to you near the end of August or early September at the latest.  

If you have any questions or concerns please let me know.

Thank you so much for supporting this project and helping me bring something beautiful into the world!

Kindest regards,

Hello again!

There is only one week left for the Love Letters campaign!

Every year I have at least one project where the goal is not to earn money (although that does help with providing food and shelter for my family, haha), but instead the goal is just to being something beautiful into the world.

A great example from last year was my giant Sky Fox Island pin set.

Love Letters is my 2025 project for the sake of beauty and creativity.  In this way it helps feed my artist's soul and will forever be a memory of a creative journey with my youngest son, who I collaborated with in the creation of these designs.  

Thank you so much for helping me bring this project to life and for brining something beautiful into the world.  

Kindest regards, 
Joshua R Pinkas

Hello there!

I just wanted to thank you for supporting my Love Letters project!

I know this isn't exactly the type of pin designs that most people have come to expect from me, which is why I appreciate your interest in this project even more.

While I truly love designing Science Cats and working with Fantasy themes, I also love to create things just because they are beautiful.  And I find these designs especially beautiful because of the young heart that helped me design them. 

Thank you for making day one of this project a success! I have already placed the order for these pins, and they are currently in production, as I am trying to get them in hand before the current lower tariff rates expire. 

I took a bit of a risk placing the order before actually collecting any funds, but I really do love these designs, and I hope you do too!

Kindest regards,
Joshua R Pinkas
