Things are moving! Thank you to everyone for filling in surveys so fast

Hey everyone!

Small update to let everyone know that the manufacturing process is moving along, I've had sample photos through from both the lanyard manufacturer and the wallets, yay!

The lanyards are pretty straightforward - the only one going to change slightly is the green wolf (just changing the hue of green to match the wallet a little better). The rest are good to go!

The wallets have needed a few more bits of tweaking - there was a miscommunication between myself and the manufacturer regarding the popper flaps, and the Cat Wallet has needed a lot of tweaks as the print came out quite dark (at least in their photos, so I have made it a bit brighter)

I wanted the underneath of the popper flaps to be plain PU leather (more durability vs the printed PU leather when it comes to being bent inwards), and they took it to mean that I wanted the entire thing to be plain leather.

This is of course being corrected, but it takes a little more time to get the second round of samples in to make sure everything is 100%. They have also been sharing with me more of the manufacturing process when it comes to printed wallets, and it's really interesting!

This is exactly how they print out each wallet, and they cut and sew the pieces individually. Very different to how I imagined it. 

The general prints of the rest are great (the Sakura dragons have to have a white zip instead of pink, as unfortunately they didn't mention earlier that a pink zip had quite a high minimum order quantity since it's a custom colour. But white is still nice!) So things are moving ahead. 

The screen printed wolves are much easier since they have the same base as the dragons.

This stage has taken a little longer than I hoped due to my lanyard rep changing and the new one often taking a day to respond / make changes, and the miscommunication. But I am still confident with the speed things are moving. 

Thanks again everyone!

WE DID IT! Thank you so much & survey information

Hey everyone!

Thanks so much for making this happen, I really appreciate all of your support with this campaign and helping making these wallets come to life!

Surveys will be coming within the week via BackerKit - so this is how you will be receiving correspondence from regarding your shipping addresses and design choices, as well as updates and push notifications where necessary (such as notifying you when surveys and addresses will be locked, as well as when cards will be charged.)

Please make sure to keep an eye out for BackerKit e-mails, and make sure they are removed from your junk / spam lists, as you may miss important survey information. 

Surveys & Charging Cards

You'll have the opportunity to add on a few extra items from my store in your survey, such as lanyards I already stock, and mini-pins!

If there is anything in particular anyone wants to pick up from my store please let me know, I can either add it to the survey or have an option for people to purchase from my store here, with reduced shipping charges so you can combine your orders together.

We were also VERY close to unlocking this design by KanizoArt, (art still in development, final details will be added if unlocked, but it'll largely look like below) - so I have added it to the survey in case we may be able to unlock it post-campaign! Her lanyard design however will be readily avaialble for purchase. 

I just want to put a gentle reminder that shipping and tariffs will be charged later on, as well as anything added on in the add-on store. So when you see an additional charge from BackerKit, please do not worry and please check with me if you have any concerns. Backerkit will make it clear in the survey how much you will have to pay. 

I think that's everything - thanks again everyone!!

We're in the final stretch of the campaign! Thanks so much to everyone who's backed, I really appreciate all of you <3

I have chosen to self-fund the remainder needed to unlock the screen printed wolves! We are so close to the goal that I'd be devastated for anyone to miss out if this was their choice. 

Thanks again, I'm excited to get these made!!

First 4 designs unlocked! Thank you! Plus Lanyard clarifications

Thanks so much everyone who's pledged!! We've unlocked the first 4 designs and are on the way to unlocking the screen printed dragons, yay!!

I wanted to clarify a couple of points about the lanyards which I will also put into the campaign:

• Backers will be able to choose with or without a break-away clasp.
• The clasps will be big beefy lobster claps which won't be liable to opening accidentally
• They are made from rPET - which is recycled plastic (other than the PU leather end)

Here are some of my other lanyards I have already made:

Thanks again everyone, I'll be posting more updates soon but I am considering a few additional like matching enamel pins, if the campaign does well!
