I'm happy to announce that 91% of surveys have been completed! 🎉 Thank you so much!! ^_^ Luckily there are only 5 backers left who haven't filled the survey out yet, so if that's you please fill it out so I can mail out your pins ASAP when they finally arrive to me! :) It was brought to my attention that there was a glitch in the surveys that didn't show the free mini pin for backing 3+ campaigns or the freebie stickers, I believe that error should be fixed and those items should show up now 🤗

Here are some sample pics of the Alebrije and the Xolo Dog pins from my manufacturer! These pictures were taken before screen printing details have been applied, but they are looking great so far! :) 

The rainbow sugar skull mini pins are going through the anodizing process which takes a little bit longer to give that rainbow gradient effect. As soon as I get pictures of the freebie mini pins and the screen printed details of the Alebrije/Xolo Dog pins, I'll add it to the next update~

I currently don't have an exact ETA on when these pins will be finished, and I never like to rush my manufacturer so they can 100% focus on making every pin high quality A-grades with very little errors/B-grades. Once my manu says the pins are almost ready for shipment I'll make another update for you all ASAP! :)

⏳ While we are waiting for manufacturing, I'm currently working on designing the backing cards for the pins and counting up the stickers/other add-ons I need to order now that most of the surveys/counts are done. ‼️ I'll be locking down orders in the next few days and charging cards starting this Friday. If you need more time to pay for your items/shipping, please comment below and I'll make a note to hold off on charging your card until later!

Once the pins finally arrive to me, here's my estimated timeline for fulfilling orders: I anticipate taking roughly 2 weeks to grade the pins, apply them on backing cards, wrap the pins up in protective tissue wrap for transit, package all orders up, triple check each order is correct, and finally purchase/attach the shipping labels for shipment (It's a lot I know! lol 😄) I'm estimating the stickers, add-ons, and backing cards should arrive around the same time the pins arrive, so everything should be smooth sailing to wrap up this Muerte & Magic campaign! ^_^

➡️ Those who ordered some of the newer pins from my latest "Rebirth & Ruin" Pintopia campaign will need to wait just a bit longer for those pins to finish going through production. Right now my newer pin designs are being processed through my manufacturer's design team, and they'll be going into production shortly for the pin molds. 

Thank you so much again everyone for your patience and support during this campaign!! I'll be back soon with another update as soon as I get more info~
