The backerkit is over and it was a huge success! With over 34k raised we have fully funded production on not only the blankets, but the hoodies, pins and prints as well!!
So what’s next? First, everyone should’ve received a notification saying that the money was deducted from their account, but we had a series of pledges fail, so please check your information if you happen to be one of these people. The system will automatically attempt to charge failed payments again in a week.
In one week, once the funds have transferred into our account we will send out a survey, the surveys are where you decide what design you would like and since we funded all of the stretch goals, all of the design options will be available. This is also when we will collect shipping costs, they are a separate cost and may be high for our international audience so please be prepared. (SHIPPING COSTS WERE NOT INCLUDED IN YOUR PLEDGE)
Once the surveys have been received, and we know exactly how much to order, production will start.
The projected timeline goes as follows: May 19th: The project goes live May 19th-June 19th: Funding Late June: Surveys (one week from the end of the project). July - September: Manufacturing September – early October: Shipping Mid October: Inventorying and quality checking Late October - November: Fulfillment and shipping Late October - early December: Delivery of the blankets to our backers
We have tried to account for delays in this projected timeline, so there is a chance everything may move quicker. But this is the prime season for the manufacturing of textiles so we will keep everyone updated via emails and project updates.
To anyone who missed out on this project, these products will be available on our website after the orders are fulfilled. We are expecting to be the end of this year or in the new year.
Thank you again to anyone who backed and supported this project. You made something wild come true and we are so grateful! Thank you!
All goals are unlocked, with a special exception made for the Version You Love design, which I have unlocked early due to its popularity and the request of our audience. Thank you to everyone who loved this design, and I am so excited that it is being made!
We have budgeted, conferred with our manufacturer and feel comfortable unlocking this design early as we are less than $2000 away from $30K. This is something that I never thought would happen, I added those last stretch goals as a wild dream not knowing what to expect and the fact that we are this close means so much! There is one day left to support this project and I believe that we can not only reach 30 but surpass it. Please keep sharing and thank you to everyone who has supported this project.
Here is the full collection and the final hoodie mockup!
With just over two days left, our seventh and second to last stretch goal has been hit! Sorry for the delay in this announcement, as we had a huge event over the weekend. But officially now, every design except for the Version That You Love design has been unlocked! This is a huge milestone! We know a lot of people were excited for that last design, and I wanted to pose a question, if we were to unlock it early in the hopes that we reach 30k, how many people would support it? We want to provide people with what they want, but we also need to keep our costs in mind. Please comment or react to this update if you would pledge for this design!
Thank you again to everyone who has pledged and made this insane project so successful! Thank you!
Goal #6 is unlocked and that means we’ve officially funded one of our secondary stretch goals which is truly unbelievable! Thank you all so much, every single one of you is incredible and has played a part in making this campaign a success!
We have just under two weeks left and I am hopeful we can unlock at least one more goal! Please continue sharing with people who you believe would be interested in this campaign! Also! Pay Over Time is officially available for pledges over $150 so those who make rather large pledges can pay them off over time while still supporting our campaign within the time frame!
Thank you again and all the love, -Playing Possum Clothing Co.
And just like that, we hit goal five! Actually, we unlocked goal five yesterday but before I had time to write the update, we not only got to 16K, 17K but almost to 18K! You all are amazing and because of that, the five initial stretch goals have all been unlocked, and these blankets will be getting made! But we are far from done! We still have three additional stretch goals and potentially another design depending on how quickly we reach those! But I just wanted to say thank you! Yes, you all are supporting our blankets, but you were supporting so much more than that. You were giving us the freedom and security to pursue new products, new designs And more! Everything we do is for you and our amazing community!
Thank you to everyone who pledged, and if you want to support us this back or is the best place. And if you cannot pledge, please consider sharing! Thank you again and onward to 20!
