Hey hey, fungi friends! 👋🍄 Hope this summer has been treating you well so far. Just dropping in to give you a short and sweet little update:

These guys are the last remaining product that we've been waiting on, and after a long production period, I'm happy to report that they're all packed up from the factory and finally in transit to me! Look at this adorable picture from the manufacturer of all those squishy lil Shroomies stuffed in together:

They're on their way!! 💪🍄🍄🍄 Once I have all of the plushies in-hand, you best believe I'll be taking some fun photos of the full plushie batches together as well as some adorable glam shots.

✨ Note: You may notice that these little guys don't have the blush cheeks on them. In fact, the large blue plushies don't either at the moment, aside from a few individual samples. Due to some production complications with getting the blush color right, my manufacturer and I decided that I will be manually adding the blush to each plushie myself, so that I can get the color and size of the blush circles exactly how I like. This back-and-forth did slow down our production time a bit, but ultimately I think it's best that they didn't handle the blush application, since the blush colors in the sample photos I was getting always looked faded or oddly sized, and they couldn't seem to get it just right. Thus, I don't mind applying the blush to all the plushies myself to secure the quality and integrity of the design—please just understand that this will add a little bit of time on my end before I ship them to you. But it'll be worth the wait!

Now that the last items have finished production and as I prepare to start shipping all of your individual orders, your payment methods will be charged in the next few days. All outstanding balances (shipping, add-ons, etc.) are due at this time, and you should see an automated email or two regarding your payment between now and Monday 7/21.

❗ Important: If your payment bounces back with any kind of error, it's critical to fix the issue(s) ASAP, otherwise I won't be able to ship your order out to you. Please see 👉 BackerKit's FAQ on Failed Payments 👈 or reach out to me if you need any help!

Shortly after your payments process, all shipping addresses will be locked down, so now's the time to make any edits and double-check that your mailing address listed is correct. For context, I plan to ship all orders during August and September. If for some reason your address is going to change during that time, please reach out to me here ( [email protected] ) and let me know of your address update. 

Simply log into BackerKit > click your profile icon in the top right corner > click "Your Pledges & Surveys" > find and click "Shroomie Shoppe" from the list > then find the "Edit payment or address" link in the top right.
