Mini Pin Madness!

Shipping Update #1
over 2 years ago – Tue, Sep 14, 2021 at 02:50:05 AM

Hello gang! 

I will be periodically posting updates on how shipping is going. I am using BackerKit to import orders into my online store, this should mean that you will be automatically emailed from [email protected] once your pledge has shipped! 

Currently I am working on checking the remaining designs and packing UK orders - unsurprisingly it has taken a long time for one person to check over 9000 pins, but I'm nearly there!! I also have a fair chunk of orders ready for shipping, I am packing them in batches to ship together for efficiency. Once UK packages are done I will start on international ones by pledge level.

There are over 400 packages for me to put together, and only one of me so it is taking considerable time, but I am working hard to get them sent. Thank you for your patience and I'll check in again once I have more updates!

A few of you have messaged me asking how shipping goes - thank you for getting in touch but I will not be replying to people individually. I'm sure you can appreciate that the more time I spend answering the same question multiple times, the less time I have to pack your goodies!! I'll keep you updated this way, and be sure to keep an eye on your emails for a dispatch notification 🥰

Addresses Lock in 48 Hours - Shipping Starts Next Week!

As it says in the title! I have just sent out the final notice to update your addresses on BackerKit. You can do this using the survey link originally sent to you or by contacting BackerKit!

I cannot update your address for you - please contact BackerKit for any help!

You have until 9am BST on Sunday to get your address updated! I will start sending pins on Monday <3

Addresses Locking Next Week

Good morning!

I have heard from my manufacturer that pins are done and will be on their way to me shortly! How exciting! This means I should be ready to send your goodies in the next couple of weeks, following a thorough quality check, so I will need all addresses up to date as soon as possible! We are ahead of schedule, woohoo!

To change/update your address, please use the original BackerKit survey link emailed to you. Addresses will be locked on Friday 13th August (ooo spoopy)

Lost your survey or need help? No worries, BackerKit has got you covered. Simply check out the FAQ or get in touch here: https://mini-pin-madness.backerkit.com/

I am going to update the status of your pledges on Kickstarter now, this is just for my own records and used to be invisible to backers but I believe you can see it now so wanted to make sure nobody panicked. If you have completed your survey and everything is pretty much ready to go I will update your status to "shipped" just so I know I don't need to do anything to your pledge on Kickstarter any more! See it as meaning "shipped to BackerKit" 🥰

So don't panic if your pledge is marked shipped and you haven't received your dispatch email from BackerKit. I will post another update once all packages are on their way! You'll also receive a 48 hour warning email to update your address before I lock them too. I hope that makes sense! 

Have a great week my sweets <3

More Manufacturer Photos!

My manufacturer is doing a cracking job at keeping me updated, and I have just received some more photos! How good do these pins look?! They are hoping to ship them in around a months time so we should be running nicely to schedule, woohoo.

Which are your faves?? I am loving the fruit slices!

First Production Photos!

Hello everyone! How are you doing? 

We are currently at the fairly quiet stage in the Kickstarter cycle. Things are going on behind the scenes but until the pins arrive and I begin my quality checking and packing there isn't much to report. I have had a few photos through from my manufacturer however so thought I'd share those with you! They're not amazing photos but hopefully they rekindle your excitement a little 😻

Thank you all for getting your surveys filled out! There are still a few outstanding, so if you could get those in as soon as possible please that will be great. The production order is in now, so whilst I have ordered extras of every design, if you have not filled out your survey by now I may not be able to guarantee your first choice of pins. 

There are also some failed payments on BackerKit, you will have received an email if your payment for add-ons did not go through but please double check just in case! I wouldn't want you to miss out on your extras <3 

Where we are at the quiet stage now, there may not be an update again for a few weeks, but once pins are complete and on their way to me I shall update you again! Hopefully it won't be too long :D
