Hello!

Sorry for the recent silence, but on a happy note - the pins are here!


These were sent over along with the previous Pintober pins and are with my project collaborator JBlake Design, but I will be picking them up this weekend! Once they are reviewed and given their backer cards, I can start sending out the orders!

I will also be charging shiiping soon and locking addresses so make sure to double check all your information is up to date!

You can let me know if you have any questions and concerns via my email at [email protected]

Thanks!

Small Production Update
about 2 months ago – Mon, Jul 27, 2026 at 02:42:57 PM

Hello Everyone!

I'm here to give a brief production update. The pins are in progress but there have been a couple of bumps along the way. Most are minor, but we did have one issue with the Venus Flytrap pin having areas too small or not being fully cut out:



I did some edits to the pin shape that I hope will give it enough room in those problem areas. Overall, not a big change:


Besides that, there isn't much to update, but I will share pics as soon as I get them. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns via email at [email protected]

Thank you for your patience!

Quick Update - Banner Incentives
4 months ago – Mon, May 25, 2026 at 01:30:39 PM

Hello Everyone!

There was an issue that came up after the end of the campaign where backers who backed the 3+ projects under the themed banner were not receiving the respective Bloom & Burrow mini pins from each creator in their survey incentives. Since this issue affected multiple projects, I contacted Backerkit to look into this issue. They were able to identify the outliers that weren't included and make a list of who was left out so I could add the incentive to those accounts.

This issue should be fixed and the Bloom & Burrow mini pin should pop up in your packing list if you qualify. I also make sure to cross check the associated incentive lists when it is time for packing, so this issue should be resolved.

In addition to this, I decided to include the Hellebore pin design as a design option since it was so close to unlocking. Art files have been sent to manufacturing and production should hopefully start soon!

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to email me at [email protected]

Thanks!

Issues with Extra Pins Survey Add-Ons FIxed!
5 months ago – Tue, Apr 14, 2026 at 09:07:15 AM

Hello All!

Quick update to let you all know that there was an issue with some of the surveys where if you chose to get an additional 2/3/4 pins, it would not ask which designs you wanted to choose for each. This issue should be fixed and will ask which designs you want after the add-on is added to cart.

Since I wasn't able to add images to the questions, here are the current options you can choose from for this add-on:



If you had issues with this, you should be able to edit your survey to add them now!

Please let me know if there are any additional survey issues when you come across them!

Thanks for your patience!

Surveys Have Been Sent! 📣
5 months ago – Fri, Apr 10, 2026 at 10:23:36 AM

Hello All!

A large majority of the Smoke Test surveys were completed without incident, so I have sent out all surveys! If you didn't get an email regarding your survey, you should be able to see it when you log in to Backerkit.

Via the survey, you can finalize your pledge, add anything else you'd like, input your shipping info, and pay tax & shipping. Filling out your surveys will help us gauge how many of each pin to order, so please get them in as soon as you can! Remember, if you don't fill out your survey then I can't send your items to you!

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about your order. You can email me here: [email protected] - I'll do my best to answer!

Thanks!
Allison
