Hello everyone! 

I hope you've been well. I apologize for the silence! Much of the pin making process is just me sitting around in anticipation, waiting for responses, e-mails, signs of life. I've managed to keep myself busy for the most part this time, but I still check my inbox first thing in the morning, most mornings. Enamel pins are largely hand made - after each pin is poured and released from the mould, a dedicated factory worker fills the cavities of each pin with enamel by hand before polishing them flat, running them through the ionized plating bath, and polishing them again. In theory, I understand that this process is long, much longer than my days usually are, but I can't help but feel impatient through it all. That's why I'm excited to be able to finally share some photos with you all! Most of the pins are ready to be, if not already, buffed and plated. I expect to receive them by the end of May! Assuming all goes well. 

As always, I will continue to keep you updated and send along the interesting photos, as I get them. There are still a few stragglers for the post campaign survey, so please fill yours out if you haven't yet done so. 

Hope everyone had a safe and fun long weekend. Talk soon!

Hi all! Today is the last day to correct any errored card payments for your pledge. Tomorrow is when surveys will be sent out. A small portion of you have received yours already for testing - thank you for filling them out timely!

In the meantime, please let me know if there are any questions about add-ons. 

Keep an eye on your e-mails tomorrow!

Talk soon,

Hello everyone! 

The campaign is officially over! Thank you all for your support throughout and making this project come to fruition. I'm sorry for the slightly late update, I was on vacation until yesterday, but am ready to jump back into pins!

The surveys are being reviewed by the BackerKit team at the moment and will be sent out in approximately 1-2 weeks to give time to those needing to update payment methods. The designs are also currently being finalized with my manufacturers and will go into production soon. 

Will update soon! Keep an eye on your e-mails in the next few weeks for the surveys.
