Surveys and extra goodies

✨Hi Star watchers! ✨
By now, everyone should have received their BackerKit survey via email. If you don’t see it yet, please check your spam or promotions folder first. If it’s still missing, feel free to reach out, and I’ll resend the email.
Please also double-check that your credit card payment went through successfully. There are a handful of backers with card errors, and fixing those now will help keep everything on schedule.
On to some extra goodies. 60cm Deskmats are available as an add-on in Backerkit when you're selecting your pledge rewards. This was a popular request from a few folks on Instagram. I've included digital mock-ups, but please note that the mock-ups might not be a true 60cmx40cm size. It's just to give a general idea.
I've also uploaded phone backgrounds on ko-fi for anyone who is interested! These are just a fun little bonus and are for personal use only.
As always, thank you so much for your support and for helping bring this star-bound sprite project to life. I hope to have updates after the lunar holidays around the end of February.
✨Wishing the best!✨

✨Hi Star gazers! ✨
Project funding is officially complete on Kickstarter, and I’m beyond excited by the amount of love and support this project has received.
Here's the current status of each item:
-
Hats: embroidery design samples need adjustment
-
Pouches: print approved and in production

Pins: molds approved and inthe color sampling phase
-
Stickers: in production

Sticker books: completed and on their way via sea shipping
So what's next? The rest of the fulfillment will be handled through BackerKit. Once surveys are set up, you can expect to receive your survey email within about a week.
If you realize you want to add an extra item, you’ll be able to do that directly through BackerKit as well.
I’ll continue sharing more frequent updates on my Instagram Stories, so feel free to follow along there for behind-the-scenes peeks and progress updates!
And finally, the winner for one free star-bound sprite dad-hat is backer #36. Please send me a message on either IG or Kickstarter to claim your hat by March 30th.
Thanks for stargazing with me & see you under the next update mid to late Feb!

New Add-On! Star-dust mini pins

Hope our star gazers are staying warm this weekend ✨
We’re less than a week away from the conclusion of the Star-Bound Sprites project! What began as a small hats-only idea has grown into an expanded collection of hats, pouches, enamel pins, and more — and I can’t thank you enough for the love and support you’ve shown these silly star-bound friends.
This will be the last update on KS until the project ends on Saturday, January 31st at 12PM EST so I'll try to make it count!
For those who may not have seen it on my Instagram, I’m happy to share fabric sample prints for the pouches. Embroidery samples will take a bit longer, as my manufacturer is preparing for the Lunar New Year holiday.
Additionally, I've decided to add mini filler pins to the add-on section. For the kickstarter, these will only be available via add-on. No separate tier will be created for logistics purposes.
For those who asked for an enamel pin-only tier, that option is currently available as "Glimmering Starlet Pin". By selecting this tier, you can select a pin from the four sprite companions.
Here is a digital preview of the star-dust filler pin. They will be anywhere between 0.5"-1" in size.
Thank you again for being here and helping bring this project to life!

Hello, star gazers! ✨
I’m so incredibly thankful for the overwhelming Day 1 support—fully funded in less than half an hour! Even more amazing is to see all three star sprite hat designs unlocked so quickly ;u;
Next up, I’m hoping we can unlock all pouch designs, and then set our sights on some potential super stretch goals 🌟
In the meantime, I’d really appreciate your help by filling out this unofficial survey to let me know which star sprite is your favorite! As a thank-you, everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a giveaway for a free Star-Bound Sprite Dad Hat ☆
