Almost done with Fulfillment

Hi all!!
It has been a flurry of fulfillment the last couple weeks but the end is in sight!
Many of you have been receiving rewards and I am LOVING seeing them on Twitter and Instagram! Thank you so much!!
If you haven't received your rewards yet, don't worry! You'll get them soon as we are almost done with sending out orders! The replacement Siamese cats are scheduled to arrive tomorrow so any orders that were either missing them or were on hold will be shipped out by the end of this week! That should complete fulfillment for all backers who filled out their surveys in time. There are a few backers missing their Backerkit surveys or need to update credit cards that I will be sending messages to after I finish the scheduled fulfillment. If you still have any questions or concerns, just let me know through Kickstarter.
For my peeps in the UK:
If you filled out the interest form then you have been sent an email with an Etsy link and details. Please check your spam folders if you were expecting it! If you want to skip to the end, here is the Etsy link for your convenience but please read the item description for instructions!

Pre-orders:
If you still want more pins, pre-orders will be available until the 30th and all pre-orders will be filled by the end of the following week. This is the last chance to take advantage of the pre-order pricing!

All of the pins will be posted up next month on my Etsy and Shopify sites at their full retail price.
Conventions:
Also, I'll be taking the pins to my first conventions starting next month! If you're attending, it will be possible to buy these pins in person. Here's my convention schedule for the year:
Otakon (DC): August 6-8
San Japan (San Antonio, TX) : Sept 3-5
Tekkoshocon (Pittsburgh, PA): Dec 9-12
Take care, and as always, thank you for your support!

Time to lock in those addresses!

Hi Everyone!
Have you ever written a text or email that you swore you pushed send but didn't? Well, that was me and my last update! OOPS! So to recap, any backer who ordered only the original 8 designs should have had their rewards mailed to them! Yay!
Stretch goal pins are in and are mostly looking great! **The one exception is the Siamese color cats which are being remade now. The delay should be about 3-4 weeks and I will update you when they arrive. If you ordered multiple pins, all pins will be mailed together when the replacement Siamese cats come in. All other orders without a Siamese cat will ship as expected.**
Now is the last chance to make any changes to your mailing address on Backerkit! I'll be locking them in tomorrow to mail out your rewards shortly. I'm sorting through pins and putting them on backing cards to mail out! The first batch will be sent out on 7/9 and I'll be sending out a batch a day until they are done!
Please let me know if your rewards are not right in any way! I am just one person doing everything top to bottom the best I can.

Thank you so much for your patience! I'm working on getting up Etsy listings that will work best and will send you an email next week!

Woah! A whopping 80% of you have already filled out your Backerkit surveys! Thank you for being on it!
Haven't gotten around to it yet? Don't worry, there's still time for you to join the cool kids club! Just fill out your survey by June 12 to pick which rewards you want and set your mailing address.
If you can't find your survey email, you can go to this page and enter the email you used to back the Kickstarter to find your survey: https://motherslove.backerkit.com/

Backerkit Surveys Are Up and Running!

Hello Everyone!
Backerkit surveys are up and running! You should have gotten the email to fill it out yesterday. Thank all of you who have already filled it out!!! Almost 50% already filled out! Wow! Amazing!!!
Didn't get the email or can't find it? That's ok! Go to this page and enter the email you used to back the Kickstarter to find your survey:
https://motherslove.backerkit.com/
Please make sure you fill it out by June 12! This will help me determine how many pins to order! Remember that anyone who gets only pins from the first 8 designs will get their orders shipped early (begin shipping June 14). Otherwise, orders begin shipping on July 9.
If you have friends that are interested, I've also opened up a Backerkit store for people to pre-order. Here's the link: https://motherslove.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
Backerkit pre-orders will ship in August, so I recommend that you all just purchase additional pins as Backerkit add-ons during your survey.
Once again, thank you SO MUCH for all your support and love for my first Kickstarter. I learned a lot from this experience and I'm already excitedly thinking about my next kickstarter! Be sure to follow me on Twitter or Instagram (@FromCaliko) to find out once it's ready!

Backerkit surveys coming soon!
almost 3 years ago

Hello Everyone!
I'm finalizing the Backerkit surveys and will send them out as soon as I can! This is the survey where you pick which designs you want. I wanted to send them to you today, but they're currently in approval by Backerkit. This is taking longer than expected, so it's going to delay the shipping of First 8 only orders. This will not affect the date that most orders will ship out. I will say production is on schedule, so this should be the final delay.
New Timeline
• June 2nd, 2021: BackerKit Surveys Sent to All Backers
• June 12th, 2021: BackerKit Surveys Locked
• June 14th, 2021: First 8 pins only orders ship*
• July 9th, 2021: All remaining orders ship (this is unchanged).
* NOTE: The first 8 are the bear, panda, tiger, fox, raccoon, shiba inu, labrador retriever and the black cat. If you were counting on them shipping by the original June 7th ship date, please send me an email or message after you fill out your Backerkit survey!
Please keep an eye out for the Backerkit Survey in your inbox and fill it out as soon as you can.
As always, thank you for your support, and your patience.

I am very grateful and honored to have your support. Unfortunately, I am unable to fulfill your pledges through Kickstarter due to the way VAT collection is done. I have refunded your pledges.
I can, however, offer you custom Etsy listings with the Kickstarter pricing and bonuses!
Please look out for an email with further instructions!
Thank you so much!
