VileWorm Etsy Shop Update - Leftover campaign items posted
Hi guys! Hope you all have been doing well! I just wanted to come in and sneak in a final announcement for anyone who was waiting for leftovers from this campaign. I'm happy to announce I've updated my Etsy Shop with over 60+ new listings! Including leftovers from this campaign, revamped pride pins, and so much more!

I'm also offering 50% off select items that will be retiring by the end of 2026. If you're interested, go hop over and visit my shop HERE Some items are in very limited quantities post campaign, so if you have your eye on something now's the time to grab it!
 



That's all I wanted to pop in and say, thanks so much again for all your support and patience!

FINAL CALL: Campaign Closes August 30th
Hello! I just wanted to give one last final call to let you know that this campaign will be officially closing out on August 30th. Here's what this means:
  • If you have not received a tracking notification PLEASE double check that your survey is complete and your card transaction went through. 
  • Any incomplete orders as a result of missing surveys or failed cards will not receive items once the campaign closes. Your pledge will be counted as a donation. No exceptions. 
  • If you have questions on the status of your order or did not receive a tracking notification you can email me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to provide you an update

That's it for now, thanks so much!

Majority of Shipping complete!
Hey guys!
Just wanted to pop in and let you know that a majority of the packages have been dropped off and are on their way to you! Thank you so much for your support during this campaign and I hope you enjoy all your new goodies! 

I did have a couple of reminders to note:
  • If you for any reason are unhappy with your order please contact me at [email protected], I'm open to any and all feedback. My top priority is making sure you guys are happy! 
  • If there's a problem with your order (ie: missing items, damaged goods, etc.) please contact me at [email protected]. I do all this by myself so I'm bound to make a mistake or two when working at this scale. I'm more than happy to send out any replacements, some items are low so if I need to order more stock there might be an additional wait. 
  • UK Backers are responsible for any tax that might come with your pledge. 
  • If you haven't received a notification of tracking, double check that your survey is filled out and your card has been successfully charged. I cannot ship out any orders that do not have a completed survey or a failed charge. If you do not correct this before the project ends you forfeit the right to your reward, no exceptions
  • I'll provide one last update before I officially close this project out to give you time to double check your pledge and make any last fixes. I'll be checking this campaign to get any remaining orders out in a timely fashion. 

And I think that's about it! Before I close out this update, I just wanted to promote my next project which will be launching January 2026 as part of Pintopia 2026! The theme is Fallen Angels and I'm planning on reworking some old designs, offering some new, and debuting my first plush toys! You can sign up to be notified of when we launch HERE


Here's a sample of some of the pin designs you can expect, subject to change, they're in early design stages :) 

Can't wait to work on this project more :) I truly appreciate your guys enthusiasm and support for my work. Things have been challenging for me and it means so much more than you know to be able to create cool projects like this! Hope to see you in my next project!

Shipping Beginning
Hi guys! 
Just wanted to pop in with a real short update for today. Shipping is set to start soon on my part and I wanted to hop in with just a couple of reminders: 
  • Double check that your card went through - I've had a big chunk of cards that errored out. This is pretty typical and I'll be running cards daily. Just a reminder that you will not receive your order until all payments go through. 
  • Addresses will be locked soon - Ensure that the address you have is correct as you won't be able to update it once shipping begins. 

I'm still waiting on the Whalefall pin which is on the way. Aside from that everything is graded, packed, and ready to go! I'm hoping to start shipping within the next week or so.


As always, if you need any help please contact me at [email protected] and I'll get back to you :) 

Thanks so much and have a great rest of your week!

Pins are In + Shipping Starts Soon
Hey guys! Hope you've been having a good couple of weeks! I'm happy to announce that most of the pins are in! The only one I'm waiting on is Whalefall, which is complete and just waiting to be shipped by my supplier. Hoping to have them in hand within the next two weeks. 

With that said I have a couple of notes: 
  • Orders will be locked and cards charged on July 15th After this time you'll be unable to make any changes to your order as I prepare for shipping
  • You have until July 15th to make any changes to your order. If you need help making any adjustments please message me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to help
  • I am unable to ship any orders that are not complete on the survey or have failed payments. PLEASE ensure your payments go through or you will be unable to receive your rewards.

And finally, here's a pic of all the pins! Hope you like them as much as I do :) 


Anyways, I think that's about it for now! I'm going to get busy packing and grading all these goodies to get them out for you! Can't wait for you to receive your stuff :D!

More Production Progress!
Hey guys! Long time no see, happy June! Hope you all have been doing well. Just wanted to pop in with some updates on the status of this campaign! However before I get there, I just wanted to announce that today is my Birthday! As such I'm holding a 30% off sale for all items in my Etsy Shop! Come check it out if you want some cheap goodies, sale ends this Monday :)

Also as another reminder, the Pre-Order shop is still open for this campaign, so if you  missed out and like what you see you still have time to grab some stuff!

Also another reminder to fill out your survey and fix your payments if they've failed! I cannot send you your items without full payment and survey completion! Make sure to take a moment to double check that your pledge is in order. Surveys are still unlocked so you're more than welcome to make any adjustments if need be. Once all pins are in my hands I'll make a notice on when cards will be charged for shipping/add-ons and orders will be locked. 



Okay enough of that! Now some pin previews! Things are still in progress for most of them. I'm hoping all the pins can get complete at some point in July. I got these pins produced through three different suppliers, with my main supplier having a majority of the pins.

Today I just got in the Goblin Shark, Chimaera Shark, and Snipe Eel pins from one of my suppliers. They turned out awesome! Hope you like them as much as I do. I'll be spending the next few days grading and packaging them on their backing cards :) 

The Whalefall Pin sample is complete and has been in production the past few weeks, I think the final sample turned out really great! I can't wait to have them in hand!


And then finally here are some WIP's from my last supplier of a majority of the remaining pins! Most of them are complete, however I'm having some trouble with the oarfish pin so I'm taking the time with  my supplier to make sure they're exactly how I want. Regardless, here's some of the other pins!

Okay that's it for now! Thanks for checking it out! As always if you have any questions, comments, or concerns please message me at [email protected] I'm more than happy to help!

Hope you have a great weekend!
