Banner Samples arrived AND the stickers are ready for the survey!
Hello everyone, and happy almost-New Year's! I hope everyone's been well and had a nice holiday season. We have big news today!
Fist, I have the Rainbow sticker sheet complete, and the Four Seasons sticker is 80% finished, so I'm going to go ahead and show you because I think you'll see enough to determine if you want to choose it or not as a freebie.
4x6in sticker sheet, will have holo glitter details. Final design subject to change according to formatting needs.
Thank you to the backer that suggested a window design, I think it's perfect! Just need to figure out what should represent spring/summer!
SO! The most exciting part happened this week, and you may already know if you're following on social media - samples of the original 6 designs arrived! I had to wait almost 2 solid months for them to get here, which makes what I'm about to say more bittersweet..
They're cute and the colors look good, BUT... all of the designs with a wooden rod are a little too small. T_T I am going to request this is changed, but since they already had the correct measurements to begin with, I'm a little worried about this coming out right. Also, the tassels on the Constellation banner were mysteriously changed to blue. The blues also blend together too much in the printing process, so that will be lightened a bit. Just a testament to why samples are so important 😅
Vaporwave was the only one that came out right (it's actually a little bigger than the original size in order to fit on the metal poles)
Honey, that blue on blue on blue is -not- a lewk.
Hi hello yes I do have a Genshin Impact obsession.
The last thing you may have noticed is that poopy string. This part is something we can't change as far as manufacturing goes, because that's the only option they have, BUT I ordered a bunch of jute (like a thin twine) in many colors and will be restringing these to see if they look better and will support the weight of a pin-laden banner better. Also, on the note of making it more aesthetically pleasing... I am going to order and test out some little round wooden end caps to give the wooden rods a more refined look.
SO! With this all finally addressed, I'm going to add these sample images to the BackerKit page. You should all get links to complete the survey via your email sometime today! <3

Hey all you cool cats and kittens 🐱
Looks like #5 was the most popular design choice for the purple herbal banner! Enough people liked #2 that I think I may go ahead and make that one too, but it will be at 2 inches in size to save on the additional cost. Speaking of costs... Can you believe SurveyMonkey charges $100/month for the most basic subscription?! Since we are going to make all the banners anyway, I'm taking down the survey tomorrow to keep from being charged another month. If you'd like to make an anonymous comment, now's the time to do so.
For the constellation banner, I've got a pre-existing sticker design that I've never released, and a new one that more closely fits the banner theme. If you have a cool idea for a sticker for this one I'd love to hear it! You can comment or DM, as always. Without further ado, the two current choices:
2.5 inch tall sticker, clear (no white borders)
Space Whale, the 3in. sticker I made but never sold.
Those of us in the US may be spending the end of this week stuffing our faces with Thanksgiving food - among the things I'm thankful for is the success of this project and how helpful you all have been in all of these decisions! This has been a great experience bouncing ideas and getting feedback, and I hope you are enjoying it too. 😊
The next update will have the choices for the green forest banner and possibly the vaporwave one as well, if I don't get too crazy making too many options again :P To save on time I may just go ahead and finalize stickers for all the stretch goals without voting. If time is not of the essence to you (the banners still won't arrive before January either way, and the stickers only take 2 weeks to make/ship to me), we can put them all to a vote also!
