Was looking forward to these arriving, only to find not only the very flimsy package damaged, but both of the pins that were in it damaged. All of the prongs were bent to varying degrees, one so much so that I needed a pair of pliers to bend it enough to remove from the backing board. The Baroque pin is the least damaged on the front, with a tiny piece of the yellow at the tip appearing to have been shaved off. The Victorian pin has some blackish residue covering parts of the lower half; some of it did flake off but the rest will need to be scrapped away, hopefully without damaging the colouring underneath. And the Renaissance pin was missing entirely.

Forgive the bad pictures (much harder to take pictures of pins than I thought!), but I am so happy with the quality of these pins. I will be shipping these little beauties out starting this week. Can't wait to share them with you all!

Project Update: Pins are in Production!

I am so happy to say that pins are officially in production! After lots of back and fourth with multiple manufactures I have found a company who I feel will make my pins high quality and the truest replica of my designs. The manufacturer says 4 week turn around time, and I plan on shipping as soon as I get them in hand. I will continue to keep you all updated.

Project Update: Manufacturing Update

Hello Backers, 

Quick update on the manufacturing process. I had been working with a company for awhile, and was at the point where I was very pleased with everything and ready to start manufacturing. They recently informed me that the quote they gave was wrong and the actual cost would be double what was initially discussed. So, unfortunately I am back to shopping around with different companies in hopes of finding better costs, but still quality work. I will keep you all updated as the process moves forward.
