BackerKit Survey Info Sent to Backerkit Staff for Approval!
Good evening! I wanted to let everyone know that I sent the backerkit survey to their staff to review and fix any needed revisions. I'll put out a more detailed "where we go fro...
As we near the end of the 'Day n Night' plushie project, I wanted to answer some questions I've been asked about many times! Please read thru it 🩷 If your question was not addressed below already, feel free to reply/comment on this post with any questions you have! 💭
~~~~
Q: When will Swirly's sample be done? A: I'll share the detailed construction soon and get feedback here for the process! However because of a mishap with my Apple Pencil during the campaign, the blue-print construction process for Swirly was slightly delayed. I'm working hard on her now, but I am deeply sorry for the delay with her sample due to my old Apple Pencil breaking. I have since gotten my replacement stylus though so she's finally back in the works!
Q: Will the plushies from the project be available via your shop for preorder? A: Only SOME of the UNLOCKED plushies will be available for preorder on my shop after the campaign is over (specifically Yue will most likely not be available afterwards and if he is, it'll be extremely limited like, 10 or less extras kind of limited). I'm not entirely sure of the quantities yet of the others, but they will be very limited too! If you have your heart set on a certain plush I'd recommend getting them through the campaign to guaranteed, secure yours.
Q: How much will the plushies be on your shop? A: They will rise in price via my shop to $45 + shipping instead of $42 + shipping.
Q: Will we be able to add extra plushies to our pledge after the campaign ends via Backerkit surveys/add-ons? A: Yes! Backers of the project will have the ability to add extra plush friends to their pledges/orders afterwards as add-ons! In this case the plushies for existing backers' add-ons will remain $42.
Q: If we don't unlock Valentine the large, pink floppy cat through this current 'Day n Night' plush campaign, would you consider bringing them back in the future for a separate Backerkit project/campaign? A: While I don't plan to bring all locked plushies back for possible future projects, I do plan to bring Valentine the cat specifically (the big pink floppy cat plush) back in the future for their own dedicated separate campaign, with maybe some extra floppy similarly-styled stretch goal friends, if we don't unlock them in time for this current project. Stuffing and the mini plushies will not be making a comeback if we don't unlock them during this project.
Q: When do we pay for shipping costs? A: You will get an address survey and subsequently pay for shipping costs around when the plushies are almost ready to ship out, after the campaign ends.
Q: When are we going to be charged for our pledges? A: Right after the campaign ENDS (ends October 29th) you will be promptly charged for your pledge.

Thank you all sooo much, endlessly with all of my heart, for helping me acheive my most successful campaign ever by far! i'm humbled, flattered, and beyond grateful to everyone who made it possible and to Sugary Carousel/Moon for the collab and support! 🩷 I feel very blessed to have your support everyone ;; THANK YOU! 🩷 Let's end this campaign in the last week of it on a strong note!
Hi everyone! Since we're super close to Swirly and I am too excited to wait any longer, I wanted to share most likely the last stretch goal for the campaign!
pls meet...Valentine!! 🩷☁️ the floppy plush pink maine coon!! 🎀🐾
A preliminary plushie design of a pink maine coon inspired plushie
Valentine will very probably be the last stretch goal of the project! this kitty cat will unlock after Stuffing the bear if we can reach $28k in total funding!
She'll be a bit more pricey because she will be very large! Her main body will measure approximately 20" inches long, not including her fluffy tail. She will also be a bit floppy for easy snuggling and hugging~
Thank you SOOO much as always for the incredible and generous support everyone! 🩷
I will begin working on editing the graphics to include her as the last stretch goal, so please stay tuned for that!
I just wanted to put out a reminder that if you haven't filled out your survey yet please do so soon! It helps a lot with inventory counts on my end!
Also, I wanted to update that cards will NOT be charged until Swirly's sample is done! In that case, cards will not be charged for add-ons and all for another approximately 3 weeks. I don't think charging until she's finished would be fair. I'll update here when she's finished of course!
Thank you everyone as always for your patience and support! (:
Hi everyone! Everyone should have now received their survey for plush choices, add-ons, shipping costs, etc. Please let me know if you didn't get your Backerkit survey email and I can send you it directly!
Swirly's sample should be done soon! I'll update on her progress! Because her sample was a bit delayed, I have decided orders will NOT be locked nor charged until she's 100% done so you can confidently choose her or not with accurate, actual photos!
Thank you as always everyone for your support!! :D 🥹 I'll update again with Swirly pictures or any other new info that comes my way for the project! 🥰
Great news! The survey smoke test has just gone out! This means a random 5% of everyone will receive the survey to catch any potential issues! If those go well, I will be sending out surveys to the other 95% of you all by this Friday!
As well, the bulk of my payments from Backerkit are scheduled to arrive tomorrow!! Which means...I can finally secure the bulk of the plushies this week, and they will begin production!!
Swirly news, I am finishing her up as quickly as possible. I hope to start sharing updated photos in the next week approximately. I am sorry in advance for the delay with that!
I will be officially charging everyone from the surveys 2 weeks after the surveys go out to everyone so I may be able to properly secure all of the goodies! <3 Addresses will be locked closer to when things are to be shipped out. I'd estimate I'll probably be receiving the bulk around 45-60 days from when I pay them all off.
If you were one of the 5% part of the survey smoke test and have found an issue with the survey, please email me at [email protected] with your backer info asap so I can fix any issues. If no issues are reported to me by Friday night, I will initiate sending out the survey to everyone (the remaining 95% not part of the smoke test)!!
As always if you have any questions feel free to let me know of course, and thank you SOOOOOO much for your support and patience everyone! :D I'm thrilled to get this started!
