We hope everyone is having a fabulous week! We have been working with our manufacturer to ensure a smooth start to production. Here are a few updates:
🌸 Manufacturer Updates 🌸
After reviewing each pin design with our manufacturer, we wanted to share a few changes:
1. Changes to the Magic Dagger Pin:
Due to a spacing issue, the magic dagger pin will only have one backing post. We wanted to have two backing posts, but our manufacturer recommended using only one since it would be difficult to attach a second post with the limited space.
What is a backing post? A backing post is a pointed needle on the backside of pins that helps attach pins to clothing, bags, etc. Here is a photo provided by our manufacturer (the image on the far right shows the placement of the backing post):
2. Changes to the Bottle of Mermaid Tears Pin (Dark Red Variant):
For those who added the pre-order item, the Bottle of Mermaid Tears Pin (Dark Red Variant), to their pledge, we needed to change the design to create more space for cut-outs and clear enamel. Here is a comparison image of the previous design to the new design.
Key Changes:
The pin size has increased from 1.25 inches to 1.325 inches, screen printing has been added for shine and sparkle details (screenprinting will be applied on top of the clear enamel), and the glass bottle part of the design has been increased in size to create more space for cut-outs and clear enamel application. We tried our best to keep the overall look of the pin the same.
