Hi Guys!
I've been inundated with messages asking about surveys, I've been cleaning up ready and I completely forgot it can take Backerkit a few days to review surveys. All's good now and I've sent out the Smoke test for the surveys and hopefully as long as all goes well and theres no reported glitches surveys will be out this weekend!
Thanks for your patience guys!

Surveys and funds!
over 1 year ago
– Tue, Oct 04, 2022 at 07:45:58 PM
Hello Everyone!
Sorry for the radio silence this last 2 weeks! Nothing much has been happening while we wait for funds to drop! They're due to clear with me in the next day or 2 now ready to order pins. Backerkit surveys will be going out in the next few days so y'all can choose your pins and pay shipping fees plus add on any goodies and extras. As many of you who follow Jo will know they've just given birth so there will be delays on finishing up backerkit items until they're back comfy and settled at home and ready to carry on.
Once surveys go out we'll collect responses for 2 weeks before piling quantities up ready to order, and will be sending out reminders prior to locking surveys! Those of you who have had errored or dropped surveys will be able to order from the backerkit preorder store which will be linked in the main project and we'll drop a link here so you can claim some goodies! As always any questions or problems please don't hesitate to contact here or via Instagram 🖤

Last few hours + a Backerkit Suprise and 8 pin freebie! ✨

Hello!
Were in the last few hours of the project and are due to finish super overfunded which neither of us ever expected! We're so happy our pins have been received so well! So with the over funding were announcing 2 mini pins!
These will be 10-20mm each and will feature a moth and a planchette representing each of our businesses. They will also be fitting the theme 'Its okay to not be okay', knowing that sometimes its just okay to have bad moment and episodes and you don't have to subscribe to sentiments such as 'Theres always a rainbow after the rain' if that just doesn't fit you! We're scrabbling together to get these drawn up and they will be available via Backerkit to claim as a reward! Backers claiming all 8 pins will receive the set as a freebie! These potentially will be available outside backerkit but we are still working out the details!
Thank you all again you've been amazing! We're so happy to have you all along with us on this journey and for so many of you to relate like we do!
(Also as a small heads up theres 1 early bird set left to claim if you'd like to snag a bargain!)

Second Stretch Goal Pin + Add on Update!

Hiya Guys!
Dropping in to show our second stretch goal pin from Jo! So along side our core 6 pins which are fully funded we now have 2 stretch goals to meet! ✨ You can now alter your pledge to 8 pins to snag all 8 or there is now an updated option in edit your pledge to add 1 add on enamel pin so if you have an early bird slot it doesn't effect your discounted set! 🖤
Make Room (Inky) - £2080
Sometimes its hard to remember to 'Mush Room' for yourself, self care is often easier said than done and when it comes to knowing your limits its important to make room for your needs.
You Don't Look Sick (Jo) - £2360
This pin design has a few meanings behind it. It represents body dysmorphia and eating disorders which I suffer from as an autistic person. It also represents the stereotype of having to look ill when majority of us have hidden illnesses. It also represents dissociation and our views being distorted or “cracked".
Thank you for all your support so far guys! We've got just under 3 weeks left to go! ✨

Amazing start! 4 pins funded already! ✨

Hello Everyone!
Sorry on the massive delay for this update, but wow what an amazing start! I was feeling a little rusty after not launching a project in over a year now, but the turn out has been fantastic. So just a quick update and a massive thank you for all your support so far! 🖤
So 4 out of 6 pins are already funded, and we managed to hit the first goal in a few hours of launching, as well as funding 3 within the first 48 hours 😱 Y'all are amazing, Jo and I are so glad the designs have been so well received and we can't wait to get them produced! Saying that theres still a whole 25 days to go so we'll be stirring up some stretch goals if we manage to fund the core designs. Don't forget pledging now helps put the pins you want to see in production, and you aren't charged until the project ends in just under a months time 🖤
Another quick notice and reminder there is no shipping charge for this project, this will be charged later on in backerkit so we get a more accurate scope of where the pin goal is and helps us accurately collect postage and ship out your goodies!
A huge thank you again!
- Inky & Jo ✨
