I see it as $23 when I'm sitting on the add-ons page, but it jumps with no explanation to $31 on the final page. I'm assuming it could have to do with being in the US, but would like confirmation before I submit my survey. PS: looking forward to seeing the other plushies' prototypes soon!
Project Update: 🧵 APRIL UPDATE 🪡
I wanted to make a quick update for the month of April to let you know where we're at with the new samples! I just had a two hour long meeting with my manufacturer and we finalized fabric colors, patch patterns, and embroidery blueprints! This means they'll be putting into production the final version of the samples and I should be able to show you all photos soon, woohoo!
Thank you all so much for your patience, plush sampling is always a long and tedious process, but I don't want to rush it to ensure we can produce the cutest, and closest-to-our-design sample as we can!
As stated in the previous update, surveys remain open for you to access and update your reward choices! They won't close until I have the photos of the new samples to show everyone and give everyone time to make changes if needed.
Also, I'm sure some if not all of you have heard about all the recent tariff news and the impacts it will have on small business owners like myself. I just want to reassure everyone that I will not be passing on any additional tariff charges to you guys and will be covering all of it myself, even if out of my own pocket if needed. I understand with the current economy, it's a difficult time for everyone and it just would not be fair for me to make my customers shoulder these extra charges for something that you and I cannot control! The only thing I would like to ask is some extra patience and leniency with the fulfilment date, as me and my shipping team figure out the best way to ship our stock here over the new few months!
I'll be back with another update once I have the sample photos, which I estimate won't be long! As always, if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to email me at [email protected]!
Project Update: 📅 Survey Extension + Lowering Unlock Goals for Paisley & Scraps ❗️
Thank you all for filling out your surveys in such a timely manner! We've already reached 85% completion on the surveys! I will be extending the survey deadline for the last 15% of folks who have yet to fill their surveys, and also for everyone to have time to see this update as I have a few things to announce:
First is, I've lowered the goals for Paisley and Scraps so that both are now unlocked! In the end, I didn't want to disappoint the dedicated backers that Paisley and Scraps have won the hearts of and will be self-funding the difference to bring them to life. However, since Paisley and Scraps are late unlocks, they will NOT have keychain / enamel pin / patch designs. My apologies but this is final! They will still have their matching free ID cards~
Next, I hear everyone's requests to see sample photos of the new plush designs before locking in their choices! I totally get it, with items like plushies, I want to see the final samples too before making my choice. Therefore, the surveys will remain open and editable until I have the photos of the new samples to show everyone.
Finally, I'm currently working on the samples! We've already gotten the shapes down for our new Pals, the next step is to match the right fabric colors, then we test the embroidery and patches and finalize details like ribbon, button, etc. I hope to have photos to show everyone by early April!!

Since folks on stretch pay don't have their surveys yet, they cannot add Scraps or Paisley to their orders. Also, it seems a bit odd for a plush campaign to close surveys and the preorder store while the majority of the plush have yet to be prototyped. Have you given any thought to allowing the preorder store to stay open, at least through prototyping Zippie, Twill, Lakko, Woolly, and Ruffles? This might allow the folks on stretch pay a chance to add Scraps or Paisley, and let most people see what the finished product will look like before making their final selections.
Project Update: ✨ Woolly and Ruffles Pin & Patch Reveal! ✨
Wow I was so focused on getting the surveys out to you guys that I totally forgot I've been waiting for the survey update to finally reveal Woolly and Ruffles' enamel pin / patch design! Well, now they get their own update just for that!
Those of you who have filled out their surveys already probably already saw the designs, but here they are!
For those who missed the BackerKit campaign, the preorder store will be open for the next 10 days!
