A fashionable everyday ita bag focused on features and functionality

Unfortunately, due to some unexpected (and COVID-expected) delays in manufacturing and shipping, we are not running according to schedule.
Here is what I know about the updated timeline so far - my initial estimates relied on receiving the shipment by the beginning of the month. Communication with our manufacturer indicates the order should ship out from the factory by the end of April. Shipping stateside usually runs around a month so we anticipate receiving the bags around mid to late May. Once the bags are in hand, I'll be able to more directly control how swiftly you receive tracking numbers!
With the delay, I intend to be a smidge more scrutinizing than initially planned to ensure the product that arrives at your doorstep is high quality enough to compensate for the delay.
I will keep you all abreast of the details the moment anything updates.
While I'm waiting on the final updates from my manufacturer about the starbags, I've been keeping busy - and I wanted to loop all of you into what I've been doing! Starting with a new Kickstarter account I collaborate with!
Introducing Cat's Pin Club - we host fanzine style collaborative pin collections! Our first project is live on Kickstarter right now! I did two enamel pins for this project, and I'm really proud of them. We're already funded and plugging away through stretch goals - and there are customs available too!
Check out our Kickstarter here!
Second and much more time sensitive, I'm running an emergency FLASH SALE on my Etsy - including Crown of the Heart ita bags and rare retired tarot decks. Everything on my Etsy is ready to ship and on-hand - the sale runs until Wednesday. (My poor laptop is breathing her last ;; )
Hello everyone, and welcome to 2021! I hope your holiday season was safe and comfortable.
Candidly, while production is ongoing, I am still waiting on good pictures of the bag production itself. That said, the boardfiller pins are complete, and I get to share those pictures with you today!
After I fulfill backer rewards, I will have extra copies of these boardfiller sets up in my shop! Shameless plug: I also have some gorgeous itabags and anime convention style goodies ready to ship over there too.
I wanted to take a moment to tell everyone that the bags have been paid for and production has begun! In the coming weeks I should be able to share production photos and video from the manufacturer. For now, I want to wish everyone a safe and prosperous holiday season, and to thank you again for supporting this project.
