Production is moving along! I've been receiving lots of updates from the factory, and things seem to be progressing swiftly, which means hopefully it will all be wrapped up within a few weeks. I am incredibly pleased with how everything is looking, and excited to have these in hand to get out to everyone! 🌈  

Apologies for running a bit behind update schedule, my semester just ended and it was a crawl to finish 😅

It’s another biweekly update, though a relatively small one for now. Manufacturing is still moving along, and more update photos will be on the way as I get them. 

As for the looming question, the tariffs, rest assured that I’m working on a solution that hopefully shouldn’t impact delivery times by too much. Otherwise, I’m caught up in throwing out job applications to both absorb the unavoidable costs and pay the bills since for the foreseeable future, running the business full time isn’t particularly viable given the state of the world.

Hi everyone, I'm making another update to answer some questions and address some things--

To begin with, I'm deeply sorry for the delays. I've definitely made some mistakes over the past year, and am working to correct everything as swiftly as possible. To that end, as I've previously stated:

I WILL NOT BE RUNNING ANY MORE CAMPAIGNS OR PROJECTS UNTIL ALL OUTSTANDING PROJECTS ARE FULFILLED.

I thought I had made that clear, but it seemed as though some were still confused.

I know I dropped the ball. I've done my best to communicate as clearly as possible, but evidently my updates have still been lacking, so here's a breakdown of the situation.

Thanks to various life circumstances, I unfortunately took far longer than anticipated to complete proofs necessary for the manufacturing process to begin, along with switching manufacturers. At this point, however, I've finally managed to almost fully catch up on everything at this point, and Foxwright Apothecary has been fully in production for several weeks now. As promised, here's some a photo update from the manu of some of the molds:

Pride Potions has now also fully entered production, and surveys for Decadent Orchard should be sent out before April. Proofs for Decadent Orchard have been completed at this point, so following survey responses, that project can also enter production swiftly. As it currently stands, all Foxwright Apothecary pins should be shipped before the end of May, provided there are no significant delays in manufacturing or shipping, which are outside of my control. Pins for all ongoing projects should be shipped before the end of Summer 2025. I know that this is less than ideal for many; my aim is to resolve these projects before the summer begins. 

I understand the concerns expressed in the comments, and would like to know what I can do to better serve everyone. Would it be preferred that I make an update once a week, even if I have nothing new to share, or would it be preferable for updates to only address new developments?

With everything approved and fully in production with Foxwright Apothecary, I’ve had the time at last to finalize all the proofs for Pride Potions, which was a behemoth of a task that has been a source of a lot of my overwhelming stress. They’ve been sent along to my manufacturer, I’ve gotten my invoice, and have sent the payment, so that means all Pride Potions pins are going to be headed into production very soon!




⭐ Thank you all for sticking with me, and for the continued support and patience!
