Hello all!
I wanted to give you a brief update on my progress with everything. Reward surveys should be going out soon. Please answer them as quickly as possible so I can get an accurate count for my manufacturer. You can pick your designs, as well as add additional add-ons through Backerkit, this is also where you will be asked to pay for shipping.
I have started communicating with the manufacturer, and so far everything is going right on schedule. :)
Best,
-Kelsi

Hi all!
I wanted to give you just a little update. First of all, THANK you. This really was such a successful campaign. I love my designs, and I'm so excited I get to make them, and I get to share them with so many people! It's such an honor so, thank you, thank you, thank you, for trusting me to bring these to life.
Second, I wanted to let you know what the next steps are. I am going to be working on setting up backer surveys next week, at which point you'll be able to choose your pins and add-ons, and the shipping costs will be totaled! Once all of those are in, and I have a rough idea of how many of each pin to make, I will be sending my files off to the manufacturer. My goal is to have everything finished and shipped out by mid-September, and as of right now, that is looking very doable.
Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have, and I will do my best to get back to you quickly!
Best,
Kelsi
Rainbow pins unlocked!!

Last few days check-in! Hi all! we're counting down in hours now which feels WILD. It's been a month of ups and downs, but at the very least this has been something GOOD going on that I've been able to anchor myself to. Thank you all for being here, for being supportive, and for helping push this along!
We just unlocked Rainbow Pins and I'm SO excited. 10k seemed like such an unattainable goal at the beginning of this whole thing, but it's now a reality. I'll be throwing up, screaming, and crying for the rest of the day, but like... in a good way?
I'll check back in at the end of the campaign with backer surveys and the like, but for now, I would just like to celebrate.
So, I guess we met all of our goals, huh?

Hi!
SO, first of all, thank you all SO MUCH! We managed to unlock the entire collection this morning, which is much faster than I was anticipating, and I am still reeling from it.
I do have TWO things to touch on before moving on to the more exciting announcement, but I'll make it short.
ONE-Because I launched and wrote a lot of this campaign while I was out of town, mistakes were made. A couple of reward tiers had a $2 shipping charge left on it. If this was you, and you were charged $2 for shipping, I will apply that charge to the final total of your shipping at the end of the campaign. I'm sorry for the confusion there, it was an oversight on my part.
TWO-I am working on more reward tiers and addon options so keep an eye out for that if you weren't quite satisfied with how you were able to put together your reward.
With that out of the way, the more exciting announcement. Because everything has been unlocked, I am working on another stretch goal for $10k! If we reach $10k, I will offer an anodized metal (rainbow metal!!) color variant option! I tested them out quickly, and they look really rad, so when I have a more finalized mock-up I will add them to the campaign!
And that's all! Thanks again for a fantastic first day.
