Project Update: Locking Orders this week

Hey all!

Just giving you an update that I'm going to be locking in the surveys this week, and charging cards soon after that. Before the cards are charged, I will be going through each of you that noted that you backed both me and the ANTIQUITY pins, and crediting back your shipping so you won't be charged it.

Please note that this does NOT mean addresses are locked, you will still be able to change them!

There are also still a whole 16 of you who have not filled out your surveys! If you do not fill out your survey I cannot ship you any of your items! Please please please fill it out! (You can still fill it out after surveys are locked, but the sooner the better!)

I've also officially ordered the pins! They should be arriving in early April.

Here's a mock-up proof of the newer designs from my supplier:


I can't wait to see them!

Thanks everyone!

Project Update: Surveys Soon

Hey all!

Thanks for being patient! February was a hectic time for me. I managed to set up the surveys and they should now hopefully be all good and ready to send out! I'll be starting with the smoke tests this weekend, and the rest of the surveys will go out next week!

A couple notes for this one:

Shipping

As mentioned before, you'll be charged shipping through the surveys. Turns out prices have shifted and gone down from our estimates, so here's what you can expect:

  • Canada - $5
  • America - $9
  • Everywhere else - $13

This price might shift if you add a lot of add-on pins, but this is the general price!

Also, since I'm shipping from the same place as the ANTIQUITY pinset, if you backed both projects I offered the option to just pay shipping once. There will be a question in the survey asking if you backed this project too--please answer this truthfully. This will add a "free-ship" option in your order. Once the surveys are collected, your account will receive a credit for the shipping price, before your card is charged, so that you will not pay shipping with me and your pins will ship with the Antiquity one. We will be cross-referencing this on both surveys--so please use the same information!

Smoke Tests & Surveys

If you receive the smoke test survey, please fill it out ASAP and let me know if there's any issues!

Once everything is good to go, I'll send out the rest of the surveys next week! Please fill these out as soon as you can--the faster I can get a count of which pins I need, the faster I can order them! Also note that addresses will NOT be locked in until I'm ready to ship the pins, so it can be changed any time between then! I will also let you all know when addresses will be locked and shipping begins.

Add-Ons


If you missed your chance at adding on other pins during the campaign, you'll be able to do so in the survey! I've also offered a handful of other goodies, most especially the Harpy Zipper Pouch, which has the bluejay and cardinal! A perfect place to store your Lil' Harpy pins!



Timeline

From here we'll be able to get a better sense of how fulfillment is going to go. Here's a rough estimate of what I hope to achieve once everything is in order:

  • SMOKE TESTS out by TONIGHT
  • SURVEYS out by next TUESDAY latest
  • ORDERS LOCKED BY MARCH 18TH (no more changes to add-ons, cards are charged for shipping & add-ons, address can still be edited.
  • PINS ORDERED (expected delivery early APRIL)

Thanks for your patience! As always, if you have any questions I'll do my best to answer!

-Tas

Project Update: We did it!!

Heyyyy!! A little late but yesterday we officially ended the campaign! At a nice 6k and with all the pins unlocked. Yahoo!! Thank you everyone who made all that happen, I can't wait to bring some lil' harpy pins into the world!

So what's next?

Well, barring a little tiny break for me because I just spent 3 weeks boosting this campaign, I'll be setting up the pledge manager and getting the surveys to you guys ASAP. That way you can choose your pins and also get shipping calculated. So hang tight, that'll be coming up soon.
Here's a little chart to give you a reminder on shipping prices (note that Canadian prices have been going up, so this might be on the low end for that...)

What if I wanted more pins?

Don't fret! The survey will also include to ability to purchase more add-ons if you wanted more from the campaign but forgot to get around to it. I'll also be including some bonus goodies, like zipper pouches and other pin designs I already have. Stay tuned!

What about the collaboration freebie pin?

If you backed this campaign and my partner's, Shiny Trinkets, Backerkit should automatically add the freebie pin to your order. You'll be able to see that better once the surveys are out.

I missed the whole campaign!

Also don't fret! I'll be setting up a pre-order store with the harpy pins. That should hopefully come around the same time as the surveys!

Thanks again everyone! You rock!

PROJECT UPDATE

Project Update: Harpy Eagle unlocked!!

WE DID IT!! We unlocked all the Lil' Harpies! YAAAAY.

I've added the Harpy Eagle as an add-on choice, and now that we've unlocked all the designs, I put up a full set pledge tier. If you want to collect them all, you can back that one--or, if you've been collecting them through add-ons, continue on, it'll all be the same price!



So now what? We've unlocked all the stretch goals, and there's 4 days left to the campaign. So: not much!! However, there is something else that might be of interest, if we can reach 7k before the end...

Don't forget about my partner project here:


SHINY TRINKETS (collab project)

If you want to collect the FULL set of harpies, including the little crow harpy, you'll have to back this campaign too!

Also my real-life partner's project is so close to unlocking all of their pins:



ANTIQUITY

If we can get both this project and their's to 10k, we'll print an embroidered harpy keychain!

And you should also back their partner project to get more sweet freebie pins!



SKY THIEVES

A steal, you might say!

Thanks again everyone! Let's end on a BANG.
