Fern Bakery's Animal Breads - Enamel Pins

heya! i ordered the first pin sample a bit ago as well as the plush keychain sample, and as of today, the sample for the plushie keychain has been sent!

they look so perfect omg, the base fabric color i am looking to see if my manu has a lighter brown of the same type of fabric, if they dont, this will be the final sample! im very proud that they got them so good on the first sample! i dont have any edits aside from the fabric color! (they forgot to put the keychain ring on this one, they will have the keychain rings on the official ones!)

im still working on the surveys, but  i will be waiting for more samples to come out before sending them! i also wont lock surveys until all samples are done, due to these guys being more specific in their look and style in comparison to the last project!

also! please make sure to check failed payments!! the official funding summary has not come out yet, so i wont know how many of you need to update your card info, but i just want to make sure you all just check! (surveys wont be sent to those who's pledges havent gone through!)

thank you all!

thank you all for your support! this is much more than i ever expected to raise, and i am so happy you guys loved my designs enough to support their production!

the project has ended- what is next? for the next few days to a week, funding will be collected from your pledges and i will be sent the funding amount some time after! i am ordering the first sample now and will order the rest of the samples when the funding hits my account!
make sure you guys have updated info so your pledge can be collected!

i will be working on surveys within the next few weeks as well! i'm busy in my personal life with classes and work, so i appreciate your patience while i complete things as fast as i can!

as it has gone a bit dead in the water with funding for the last few days, i wanted to make an update with some reassurances to you all!

ALL pin designs will be available on the survey at the end!! no matter where the funding ends up! i will come out with the slight redesigns soon as i get the last few finished and confirmed as being able to be done by my manufacturer! if some of you dont prefer the redesign, i will always reconsider and figure something out to make everyone happy and satisfied with their pledges!

i am also dedicated to these bread doggy keychains being available to you all, and i am COMPLETELY OK with self funding those ones, as i also really want to add them to my product stock for conventions too! so those of you who pledged for them, dont worry, i want to still have them available to you all! but i  do hope funding does reach the goal, at this current moment it looks a  bit hard to get to that point in the days remaining.

thank you all for your support and i always appreciate it! lets get that bread!

It was still a close vote, but the Rye Doggy ended up winning the tie breaker! So they will be up first for plush keychains! The skink will be the following goal after that if the doggy gets unlocked!

I have added a new pledge level and add on option (seems some of you already noticed when I posted the add on last night XD), since they are the next goal, I have made it available!

I will also be getting the sample keychain of the doggy going now so everyone can get a better idea of what they will look like! As well as ordering the sample of one of the pins! There has to be a little redesign in the colors due to gradients not working in screen printing so I will make another update with the slight changes in designs soon!

Speaking of stretch goals, what do you all think about unlocking the matching mini pins with the plush keychains? It would mean a slightly longer stretch goal (by $150 or so) but that also means the second winning choice for mini pins can also be included! There is a poll attached below on the decision! But for now I am going to set up the funding stretch for just the keychain, and change it if the poll decides otherwise! The poll will be a short one so I can get quickly on top of the goals for people!

Thank you all so much!

WOW! we completed both the $3k to the finish of the taiyaki and the 50 backer goal for the freebie sticker added to everyone's order! the poll results were close, but Anise the Baker cat won! once we hit 100 backers the other one is guaranteed to also be added for everyone though! so don't loose hope! if he doesn't get reached i will still have him available as a "add-on to unlock" in the survey! 
Thank you all so very much! i truly mean it every time i say it!

the poll for which items should be added for the continuing stretch goals is still open until 12 tomorrow, currently the plush keychains are winning!
for more info on the mini plushies though, they are planned to be weighted and around 5 inches long (6 inches for longer ones and 4 inches for shorter ones). the keychains would just be embroidered 4-5 inch stuffed ones! i am still getting estimates from manufacturers but as soon as i get more info and the poll ends they will be ordered for sample immediately so you all have an idea of what the future ones would also look like!
i will also add another pledge level and add on right when the poll ends tomorrow!

as to the breadimal that will be the first up on the plush stretch goals, there was a tie between the Skink and the Doggy, so theres now a tie breaker going on! so make sure you vote for which of the two were your fav! the poll will end relatively soon due to needing to get these stretch goals rolling!
