Updates Coming Soon- I'm sorry.
I cannot explain how awful I feel about not being able to properly and timely update everyone.  I've been struggling with potentially becoming homeless as well as being stolen from by someone I considered to be one of my best friends. They took around 10k from me, and I've bee...

Project Update: About ASAP Shipping! Important!!

Hi everyone,

I don't know how I managed to not mention and I honestly feel so stupid. 
I mentioned 2 updates ago when someone suggested ASAP shipping that I don't have all the attachments yet. 
I meant to make it obvious in the listing and update that I can only ship out the attachments I have in stock. 

I'm going to try and get in touch with everyone who paid for ASAP shipping to offer free attachments for any attachment that was missing in their package. 

If you ordered ASAP shipping please feel free to get in contact with me via email or my website and I can get free attachments sent to you so you can at least go ahead and wear your bag. 

The current inserts/claws/titles I have are

Lilypad Title
Spooky Title
Shooting Star Title
Sweets Title

Plushies Insert
Galaxy Insert
Pond Insert
Spiderweb Insert

Star Claw
Heart Claw
Lilypad Claw
Spider Claw (There is a manufacturing error where they forgot the hook on the back of this claw, I need to get them re-ordered so if you want this one you will also receive the fixed version once I get them in. ) 

If you would like a free placeholder please let me know which ones you'd want, you don't have to pay any extra shipping. I acknowledge this is 100% my fault and I feel awful about this.

Project Update: Optional ASAP Shipping

Hello Everyone!

I was able to sort out getting the website listings up for if you'd like to get your bag, plush, or both shipped out ASAP.

This link is for if you pledged for the UFO Catcher Ita Bag and is $12

This link is for if you pledged for a Coin Purse Plush and is $9

Please use the Ita Bag link if you also pledged for a plush- I will ship it with the ita bag.
The Plush Coin Purse link is for if you didn't pledge for a bag and only a plush.

I would like to reiterate again, that this payment is optional- please only pay if you can afford to.

I also ask that you please use your current or most recent address when putting in your shipping information.
I've made it to where you need to enter your backerkit email so I can find your pledge and ship out everything you pledged for that I have in my possession.

I have a notes option on the checkout screen- please leave any shipping notes or requests in that option.

If you would like to help out extra- you can purchase multiple of either of the links and all the funds received this way will go towards getting more bags and plush shipped out to backers who potentially can't afford ASAP shipping. This is in no way a requirement, simply an option for anyone who would like to give a little more and help me with shipping during this unfortunate time.

If you’d like any of the other items currently available in my store, please note that any and all funds spent on any of my available merchandise will also go towards fulfilling shipping. Unfortunately, right now I cannot afford the higher tier subscription to keep my website going that allows me to create discounts. However, I’ve decided that if you purchase any item alongside the shipping you can ask for the following FREE extra item. The requirements are as follows: 

  • Any Amount of Stickers qualifies for the Same Amount of Free Stickers. 
  • Any Amount of Mini Prints qualifies for the Same Amount of Free Mini Prints + 1 Free Sticker
  • Any Amount of Charms qualifies for the Same Amount of Free Charms + 1 Free Sticker
  • Any Amount of Enamel Pins qualifies for 1 Free Charm + 1 Free Sticker (Per Enamel Pin)
  • Any Purchase $50 (including ASAP Shipping) or Above qualifies for 1 Free Pin, 1 Free Charm, and 3 Free Stickers

Please do not add the free items you’d like to the shopping cart, please list the names of the items you’d like for your freebies in the notes section during checkout. 

If you have any questions or concerns at all, please leave a comment and I’ll do my best to get back to you in a timely manner. If your question or concern involves any personal information that you shouldn’t be sharing publicly, please use my websites contact form. 

Thank you for your patience and understanding. The positive response I received in the last update has really helped me and I appreciate each and every one of you. I felt overwhelming guilt having to ask for another payment- but please know that you have my sincere gratitude. Thank you.

PROJECT UPDATE

Project Update: I'm sorry- I'm trying.

Hello everyone, I'm very sorry I haven't updated any time recently. 

Honestly the months have been going by very fast for me- I've been struggling since being cut off from conventions. I have trouble paying my bills and staying afloat month to month. 

I'm going to try to update at least once a month- as I saw suggested in discussions. 

I am sorry. I feel awful, I've had multiple mental breakdowns about being unable to currently fulfill my backerkit promises. I know this is not an excuse. 

As of right now- I plan on making a gofundme page. My business is failing and I'm not able to pay for the remaining shipping or products that need to be made for the backerkit. Right now I only have the base bags with one title, insert, and claw per colorway.

I didn't want to announce my website re-opening because I had to switch to a monthly plan because I can't afford the yearly option I normally went with. 

I have all the bags- I've had them for months. I had to take out a loan to afford the plush coin purses- and I've been struggling to pay it back. I have only the base colorways and the plush in stock- meaning I still need to order the pins, as well as the extra titles, claws, and inserts.  With the new tariffs effecting the pins and extra accessories to the bag I know I need to ask for help now.  

I'm sorry- I can't express how disappointed I am in myself. I want to be able to fulfill everything asap. I wanted to be able to handle all of this myself and not ask for help- but I've sunk so far that I am coming to terms with the fact that I won't be able to do anything if I don't at least make my situation known. 

I would love to be able to refund and ship everything- but the harsh truth is I rarely have enough in my bank account for my bills alone. 

I'm so sorry. I never wanted to let anyone down. I've been an anxious mess, and like I said, I know that's not an excuse. I just want to make it very clear that it was never my intention to stop updating and leave people concerned that they've been scammed. I promise to you I will get out everything that people paid for. 

I've started working on a gofundme this month, I will post once it is live. I don't want anyone to feel pressured into donating. I simply do not know what else to do at this point and feel like I'm at the end of my rope. 

I don't have much of a support system, I don't have family I could ask for help. 
It feels like an extreme failing on my part to admit that I have to ask for help, and I know it's not fair considering how I've handled this campaign. 

All I can hope is that you'll forgive me for being this absent, and know that it was never my intention to disappear or stop updating. 

My health, savings, and mental fortitude have gone down the drain, I'm a stressed out wreck. I'm sorry- I truly am. 

I can't express enough how dead set I am on getting everything sent out. I'm sorry.

Hi HoneyHerds, I know when we last heard from you that you were dealing with some very difficult life circumstances. I hope you are doing as okay as you can be right now and that your circumstances are steadily improving. <3 I wanted to ask if you’re able to provide any update on this project? It has now been over a year since the fundraising closed and about 4 months since we’ve heard from you. From my previous experiences purchasing from you, I know that you are an amazing creator/shop owner and that you care deeply about your customers. As such, I truly believe that you have the best intentions and that you plan to get folks their bags. I’ve also had a number of recent bad experiences with OTHER creators on Kickstarter/backerkit, though, and it can be hard to stay positive without knowing what’s going on. Even if you can’t get the bags out immediately, more frequent updates (maybe 1x month?) would really be appreciated. Thanks & best wishes, K

It's been 3 months since the last update, could we get a progress update on what's going on or when the bags will be shipped?
