Campaign is Complete!! And a Post Campaign Q&A
about 1 year ago – Mon, May 15, 2023 at 04:11:34 PM

Hi again everyone!!

Thank you so so much for helping fund my Zodiac Cats collection!!! All funding for the campaign is officially over 🎉🎉🎉 And while everything has been funded, there is still much work to be done to turn this vision into a reality!

In about two weeks, I will receive funds directly from Kickstarter. Then I will send out the Backerkit surveys so you can choose your rewards :D Once I get a rough estimate of what needs to be made, I will be able to start production with my manufacturer! 

I will give you all updates as I hit important milestones for both production and fulfillment.

But thank you so much for all your support- it means the world to me 💕 I hope you are just as excited to get everything made as I am!!

------

As I get everything set up, I'd like to answer some questions you all might have!

How do I know which pins you want?

I will be sending surveys via BackerKit to each of you, where you can select what specific items you want. These surveys will be sent about 2 weeks after the campaign ends.

I wanted to pledge but didn't get to, what should I do?

Worry not! Once the BackerKit surveys are sent out to everyone, I will also make them open to the public. Ordering directly on BackerKit means that you have to pay for shipping on there.

For those of you without the current means but continued interest... I will have everything from the campaign later on in my Etsy store. So feel free to favorite the shop to get notifications for when they drop!

What if I want to add more items?

You can add more items to your pledge via BackerKit. And for Early Bird backers, you will be able to add any 1.5" pins for the same Early Bird pricing.

What if I am moving or changing addresses during the campaign?

You will be given the option to change your address at any time via Backerkit. If you know you are changing addresses ahead of time - please indicate that on your survey. And you can always give me a heads up too if you need any further help!

What if there are any problems with my order?

If I come across any specific problems with your order, I will go ahead and contact you! There may be some challenges when it comes to international orders, so just a heads up to those of you living outside the US.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask! I hope this helps :D

Hi again everyone! 

The end of the campaign is drawing near :D And I have some exciting news to share!

We have officially raised enough funds for all stretch goals to be funded. Meaning the variant colored Zodiacs will officially be made yay!

Not only that, but I added 4 new elemental pin designs :D

They're now available as add-ons so grab them while you still can!

And that's all the news, for now ^^ Moving forward, I'm going to continue promoting the campaign.  And once it wraps up, I'll add more updates as to what happens next (for production and fulfillment).

Cheers and thank you for all of your support!!! Hope you have a very wonderful day c:

Thank you for your continued support!!

We are nearly halfway done with the campaign and it looks like we're picking up more speed again! I have a few things to mention just to keep you all in the loop! 

I have four new celestial element designs I am working on and hopefully, I'll be able to finish them up soon ^^ 

There were many of you interested and worried about whether we could unlock the Cosmic Variant Designs. So I've decided to lower the amount of funds required for them from $10,000 to $7,000. I am very confident we will reach that goal- and I hope that can help ease some worries :D

That's all for now! If I change or add anything new to the campaign I will inform you all!

Thanks again!!!

You Are Amazing!! The Zodiac Collection Has Been Completely Funded!!!

I actually cannot begin to describe how shocked I am!! Wow!

Thanks to you all we have blasted through nearly every single goal in just 24 hours :D! All that's left to unlock, as of writing, are the variant pins!!

Since you've all gone above and beyond, I would really love to know if there's anything else you'd like for me to add to the campaign ^^

These were some ideas I had:

• More pins!
• Pin Canvas
• Beret
• Needle minder (of the Sun & Moon design)
• Bookmark
• Zodiac Wheel art print

Let me know if you think I should add any of the above!! And do let me know which pins you are most excited about as well :D

Thank you all again so so so much!! I'm so very excited for this campaign and I hope you are too <3
