Hi guys! I just wanted to make a quick update, sorry it's been a month since the last update... Well! All the pins are paid for an on their way for productions! The manufacturer said it would take about 20-30 business days to make, and with shipping and weekends it's projected to get here in about two months. From there I'll update you guys once they are finished, and they have shipped, and also again when they get here.
Thank you guys for being so patient with me. I want to be professional, and I don't want to blame my mental health for everything, but things truly have been so hard. Seriously thank you so much. For those that believe in me and know you'll get your pins, and stick around? Yall mean the world. Thank you.
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up, that most of yall's surveys are completed, so I am gonna set the cards to be charged January 25th! If you aren't ready or if you dont have enough funds, there will be a second charge attempt Feb 1st.
That's kinda it! Once the cards are charged, im gonna put in the order for the manufacturer and get that in right away! All the files are ready, with pantones and info. and my counts for the order are estimated enough to know what I need.
Hi guys! I firstly want to apologize, I overestimated my ability to work around the holidays and two conventions, starting Jan 1st and some personal mental health struggles, and things have been overwhelmingly difficult to do even the smallest tasks, and that is purely no one's fault other than my own. I am sorry. This last year has really done numbers on me, to the point I sought professional help and have therapy. 😅 I will work to do better in the future for this and all my projects. Thank you all for being so patient, I am sorry to leave yall in the dark long enough, it is totally unfair to you guys. I just want to take responsibility for my actions and explain why I've been behind pretty bad. I'm sorry.
SO!... SURVEYS ARE FINALLY SENT! finally.
☕So please check your emails! And or your Spam! (Sometimes they end up there) Please fill these out! :D Not sure which email it's going to? it'll be whatever email is attached to your Backerkit account, so be sure to check That email! :> 💙
☕Please don't ignore the survey! These aren't surveys that rate the Backerkit's performance etc. which seem like a waste of time, it is me asking for what pins you would like, so I need you guys to fill this out so I know your order/reward, and your shipping address, so I cannot fulfill your reward without you filling this out, so don't ignore! :D 💙
((more info below in FAQ of why))
And the Pumpkin Bread pin is there on the survey! HERE SHE IS!!!
- The Pumpkin Dragon pin is an option to pick for any reward tier, just as any of the other unlocked pins! - The pumpkin Bread Dragon is also available as an Add-on, and you can get as many as you like, as well as any of the other unloked dragon pins! They are at the bottom of the survey, under "Campaign dessert dragons. It is like an Etsy listing you click on, and you pick which Dessert Bakery pin you like and the quantity. :) - the Pumpkin Bread Dragon is the same size as the others, at 1.8inches, and copper plating with two butterfly clasp backings. It also has screenprinting within the bread itself. :)
And then also, The coffee Dragons will be available for add-ons too. Thank you so much!
__ ✨ Survey FAQ✨__
My card was never charged.
If your charged was never charged, it most likely errored do to insufficient funds. Be sure enough money is in your account to match the reward tier and shipping you backed for the funds to go through. Otherwise, it might be an issue with your bank, or I'd suggest trying a new payment method.
I never received my survey!
IF YOU NEED A NEW SURVEY SENT! click this link, and it shall send another survey to your email. https://enchanted-dessert-bakery-dragon-enamel-pins.backerkit.com/
-Be sure to check the spam box in your email if you never received your survey, it may be hidden in there. - If you used an old email/or different email for your Backerkit started account then the email you usually use, be sure to check the email that is connected to your Backerkit account. If you haven't received your survey after looking at the two steps above, email me at [email protected] so I can either give you the survey directly, or so I can manually get your reward shipped out to you through email discussion.
Will I be able to buy these pins at a later date outside of Backerkit/Kickstarter?
YES! Once all rewards are shipped out and I have received the product, I will be selling the pins individually on my Etsy. My Etsy can be found in the link below. https://www.etsy.com/shop/SpectroliteAAA?ref=seller-platform-mcnav
Will I be able to add extra pins to my reward?
Yes, you can do that after filling out the pins that match your reward tier, you will be given the option to purchase additional pins in the add-ons section of your Backerkit Survey. There you can add as many extra pins
-------
Thank you guys, I'm sorry my personal issues have effected my work so bad, I will do my best to be better. I understand your guys' time is important, and I never want to make anyone feel like I took their money, because this is a crowd funding project. So thank you.
Hi guys! I want to thank everyone that WOW we are just under 10k!?
And for our first backerkit campasign?! Seriously wowowowow thank you all! I cannot express how grateful I am!
I also just want to say, if anyone was wondering! All the pins will be available on Etsy once the backerkit campaign has been fulfilled to all the backers! :D
New pin this late?!
Hahah yeaaahhhh hahah! After the last Mint Chocolate Chip dragon, I know the campaign is literally about to end, but boy howdy does inspiration like to hit whenever it freaking likes. Cuz I got this idea to do Pumpkin Bread! And it's too cute NOT to do! So, haha I want to get this little guy in the batch of bakery dessert dragons, even if she isn't finished for the last day of the backerkit haha. there's a two week period waiting for the money, being sure everyone has time to complete their surveys etc, and so Pumpkin Bread will be available as well!
For now, here is the sketch! or two sketches, cuz I drew the bread and the dragon separate and then combined them in my art program lol I'm about half way done, so this little guy will show up on your surveys to either pick as a pin for your reward, or as an add-on. I have made a new reward tier for 7 pins for anyone who wants to get this guy for their reward, so that can be changed before within the next 10 hours. Of course we have made so much that they are already unlocked.
Firstly I should mention if it isn't obvious, all the pins are unlocked! Including the new one you see below. ✨
Hey guys thank you all so much for participating in my first backerkit campaign! It's been going by so smoothly, and everything has been kosher on schedule and it's wonderful! I know this backerkit campaign isn't as big as my previous projects on Kickstarter, with only a handful of pins instead of like, 15 like I usually do, but there is an additional pin now making this project at six! :D 💙
The dragon is Mint Chocolate Chip, as a brownie and the classic, ice cream! I wanted to do something extra for the near end of the campaign! I hope you guys enjoy this new dessert to our cute little bakery! I have added a new reward tier if anyone would like to upgrade, or you can just add-on another pin to your existing pledge if interested! ✨💙
ADD-ONS IN THE SURVEY!
So with the Backerkit wrapping up in just a few days, I have gotten a few questions if I'm going to have any of my previous pins as add-ons for this project, and the answer is yes/no? It's more like, I'll have new pins that literally just came into the mail right after Thanksgiving Holiday. And wow has it been nuts for this project and my previous one to kinda all come together at the same time with the holidays haha! BUT My Coffee Dragon Pins have just come in! 😭💙🙏 I cried. They are so beautiful! (for those on the project, you will get a fuller update later today! <3)
However! For previous pins! There's actually a better discount going on right now on my Etsy shop! all my pins and stickers are 25% off until December 31st! Check it out! :D https://www.etsy.com/shop/SpectroliteAAA?ref=seller-platform-mcnav Here I have what is left of my Tea Dragons, my Seasons, elemental etc.!
So, essentially, I am fulfilling my previous Coffee Dragon Kickstarter literally this week! And of course, I have plenty of inventory beyond the Kickstarter, so the Coffee Dragon pins shall be available as add-ons to pair nicely with your tasty dessert dragons! 💙
To see all the coffee Dragons, check out the kickstarter here. The small Dragons will be $13, and the medium dragons will be $16
Here's some photos of them! the lighting wasn't great, so they look a little yellow in the photos, but wow they are just beautiful! I'll take better photos soon!
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! I'll make another update probably tomorrow or when the project finishes to keep yall updated! Thank you! Seriously! what an amazing turn out for such a shorter and smaller project and on a new platform! Thank you seriously! it means the world! thank you!
