Hey there! I have a few announcements so let's get into it~
📈 Tariff news
With the Tariff news happening over the past few weeks, a lot of us small artists have been worried about the proposed Tariff fees on our pin orders (145% tariff fees as of yesterday). I'm working with my pin manufacturer on a solution to make sure costs don't rise a significant amount on my end when the new pins ship to me. Any increased costs during shipping I will make sure it is not passed onto you!!
With the pins already in production, I'm bringing some extra additions to the Add-on Shop before I lock surveys down!
With that being said-
🛍 Why browse the add-on shop again?
There's a few new items I forgot to add to the shop like XL pins, discounted pin bundle sets, and leftover vinyl stickers. Any additional pre-orders placed on the extra pins I've already put into production will help offset any extra costs/potential tariff fees that might come up during the shipping phase!So any extra support is very much appreciated during this time 🙏🏼💖
There's also a new Tariff Tip Jar if you just want to show some love/support 🤲🏻💖✨ Anyone who adds to the Tariff Tip Jar will get an extra random sticker from my sticker inventory added to their order~ If you want a specific sticker just leave a comment on this update and I'll make a note :)
(Full set available in shop)
Tariff Tip Jar!
(Set sale available in shop)
⌛️ Surveys closing at the end of this week!
With the pins already in production, I'll be locking down the surveys soon at the end of this week and charging cards! Before I do that, check out some of last minute items I added to the Add-On Shop!
🛍 New items in the Add-on Shop this week:
-XL Harpy Woman + Egyptian Night Goddess Nut pins (Both low stock, about 20 left)
Harpy- Teal, blue, and purple color scheme
Nut- Glitter blue pin

^Feel free to share this Pre-Order Store link to your friends that missed out on the campaign! <3

🙏🏼 Thank you all so much for your support and patience!! I cannot wait to see how these new pins turn out and ship them out to their forever homes!! :)
Just a quick update, I realized I forgot to add my Reusable Sticker Book designs to the Add-on Shop! I'll be restocking these this month for my campaigns and convention table. So if you want to reserve one of your own, now is the time ^_^ Each sticker book has 50 reusable pages, and I'll have 4 designs to choose from~
Reusable Sticker Books:
Pokemon- Legendary Birds Trio
Mario Starry Night Art Level
Jackalope- Error 404 Not Found
Shibari Succubus- Tattooed Demon
Sticker book decoration example! (*Stickers not included with book*)
Backers can reserve a copy through the Add-on Shop for only $20~ (Each reusable sticker book goes for $25 at my convention table, and $30 online through my Etsy Shop). If you're a sticker hoarder like me this is a fun little add-on ^_^
Persephone Leftover Collab Pins:
➡️ If you missed the last update, I added the last leftover Persephone Goddess Spring pins from the Femme Fatale campaign!
**Since these were a Femme Fatale campaign-exclusive item, these won't be restocked again! 🌹🌸 The last way to grab these limited-edition pins is through the Add-on Shop!
Tan/ Gunmetal Persephone
White/ Gold Persephone
Persephone's story:
Persephone was the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, and she was the goddess of spring/agriculture. Persephone also became the wife of Hades, King of the Underworld which made her theGoddess of Death and the Queen of the Underworld. She's the perfect Femme Fatale and the reason why I chose her as the special Femme Fatale collab pin 🙏🏼🌹💞
➡️ Remember, these won't be restocked again since they were collab pin prizes! I'd rather list the last batch here on Backerkit than on Etsy where the shop fees are much higher.

✅ How to add the Persephone Pins/ Sticker Books: to find your survey/add-on shop, please visit the page link below and enter your Backerkit email address~
Hello everyone! First and foremost, I want to thank you all for your amazing support and patience for this year's Pintopia!! I can't believe we unlocked all these pins together, I'm so excited to see these all in their final form 💖 I wanted to wait to send an update until I finished wrapping up my last campaign's shipping fulfillment and waiting for the flood of Pintopia emails to calm down a bit 😄
The great news is the surveys were finally approved over the weekend by the Backerkit team and I already sent the "Smoke Test" surveys out to make sure there were no errors. Since everything went smoothly with the Smoke Test, I sent out all the surveys today so I can get a proper count of all the pins, stickers and other add-ons. If you see your survey please fill it out as soon as you can :)
➡️ You should be receiving an email soon with a special link to your BackerKit survey! After the survey is filled out, you'll be taken to the Add-on Shop where you can browse other pins/merch I have available and fill out your shipping details~ (Shipping and add-on costs will be charged at a later date)
Here's a sneak peak of what's in the Survey Add-on Shop:
Femme Fatale, Muerte & Magic, and Rebirth & Ruin pin campaigns
Leftover Persephone pins!
3 sets of mini pins together: Roses, Hearts/Stars, and Firefly mini pin sets
Leftover Tan Persephone pins!
➡️ Leftover Persephone pins have also been listed in the Add-on Shop! There's only a handful of these left, so if you wanted one, grab them soon! (These won't be restocked again since they were a Femme Fatale campaign-exclusive item) 🌹🌸
Tan Persephone
White Persephone
All the other Femme Fatale pins are still available! Pink/Rainbow Medusas, Blue Siren, White/Tan Persephones, Rose mini pins and Harpy pins are the only pins in low stock.
Here's some sample pics from my "Muerte & Magic" campaign: a Dia de los Muertos Mexican culture pin series
Xolo Dog Mexican Skull Pin before screen printing
Day of the Dead enamel pins!
Alebrije Mexican Pin before screen printing
I'm also setting up pre-orders for the Switch gaming ita bag that sold out last year, so feel free to check out the whole shop!
Gray insert
Padded pocket + 10-game cartridge tab for your switch/games~
Holographic insert
➡️ Since I don't have many conventions lined up to vend at this year, if you could take a moment to share this campaign link below with your friends, family & social media, I would greatly appreciate the shares! :)
Hai this is my first time backing your project and I've not seen a survey sent out yet. Is it still a work in progress or could there be a glitch on my end? Please reach out as soon as you can since I would love to have the pins you're offering! <3
Hello there! I have some updates and great news for the last few days of Pintopia! :)
First of all, my apologies for the slight delay revealing these new pin designs you voted on 🙏🏼 I needed time to not only draw/finalize the artwork for the stretch goals, but I've also been prioritizing wrapping up the last few batches of shipments from my other pin campaign before I released these new pins. (If you're a previous backer, your tracking number will show up very soon! Thank you so much for your patience it is much appreciated 💌)
Because of how far we've reached in this Rebirth & Ruin campaign, these new stretch goal pins you voted on are all unlocked for the last few days of Pintopia! 🎉
Screenprinted details on the leaves
Celestial Decay features a beautiful crescent moon surrounded by the poisonous and hallucinogenic Datura Moonflower. Its toxic beauty thriving in the quiet decay of night, a delicate balance between ruin and rebirth; the perfect pin to end this campaign 🌙🤍✨
Screenprinted details on the wings
Moth's Rebirth features the serene Luna Moth: a symbol of new beginnings, rebirth, and spiritual transformation. Its wings worn by time but never defeated, it carries the echoes of past cycles within its torn wings—a quiet story of renewal in the face of decay.
Glow in the dark mini pins
The Light Bearers pin set features four *glow in the dark* firefly mini pins! These tiny pins capture their delicate glow, a symbol of staying grounded and appreciating life’s smallest wonders. Like a firefly’s light, life is fleeting yet beautiful, a spark in the darkness that urges us to pause, breathe, and cherish each passing moment.
----> To add any of these stretch goal pins for any tier, check out the Add-On shop! Especially Early Bird Tiers, this is the best way to add new stretch goal pins while keeping all your early bird incentives. Don't forget Early birds, you can still add more pins to your order to 3+ pins to qualify for the free lotus mini pin <3
Regular Tiers, you can either change tiers to a higher tier to add these new stretch goal pins, or simply add pins from the add-on shop.
----> A new tier has been added for Regular Tiers to switch to if you want the entire Rebirth & Ruin pin collection 🌿💖 Early Bird Tier (x4), you can keep the Early Bird tier for the freebies and simply add pins from the Add-On shop for the same full collection deal <3 Early Birds, if you need me to manually upgrade your tier to a (x4) pin tier just leave a comment and I'll help you out as soon as I can after I ship these last few orders out 🙏🏼
----> More great news, Rose mini pin sets and Heart/Star/Dagger mini pin sets are back and have been added to the Add-On shop! I'm also adding a mini pin bundle of all 3 mini pin sets at an extra discount.
Full 12-piece mini pin set! <3
Also, be sure to share the campaign with your family, friends & loved ones and check out my campaign partner Allison's amazing Eternal Bloom campaign to get both of our collab freebies!!
Thank you so much for your patience and support <3
