Project Update: June Update!

Hello all, 

Is everyone entering hot summer and starting to slowly melt? I HATE being hot and sweaty and my face gets super red like a tomato. Here in my town in Mexico our seasons are a few months earlier so I've already gone through summer. It's finally rainy season and it gets cool from all the rain. I actually love rain so bring it on! 😍

The manufacturing of the pins has been going good so far and I'm still confident the timeline will be met. The company I use is very easy to work with and shows me every step for approval. First comes the pin molds which have all been made and approved. Next is showing me a sample with the enamel colors filled in to see what I think. The majority looked good and I only asked for a slight change on a few of them. Usually to make the color a little lighter. Next I'm waiting to see the color changes and we can go forward!

I thought it would be funny to show you this sample image with two of the pins. It looks like a squirrel munching down on psychadelic acorns and a cat crying over what must be a very sad part in a romance novel. Poor guy.



Please note that this is NOT how the pins will look. This is just showing me the enamel colors and they have not been sanded down so that nothing spills over and the bright metal shows. This also does not include the screenprint as that is done as the final step.

As usual, thanks to everyone! Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Next update will probably be showing off the backing cards. Each Make a Scene set will come with a unique card to match the theme. 

Have a great weekend!
