I can't believe this day is here. The final few rewards have all been sent! I hope you all receive them quickly and the holiday post doesn't slow them down too much.
If you like my designs, please consider following me on Instagram and sharing your products when they arrive, I'd love to see them. Also consider favoriting my store on Etsy and of course following me on Kickstarter so you can hear first about what's next for Havilton.
If you're looking for some fun ways to display your wing pins, I currently have some Christmas ornaments for use with pins available on my Etsy, and hope to share some more creative ideas on my Instagram in the future.
If you have any issues please don't hesitate to contact me.
Once again thank you all so much for your support. I literally couldn't have done it without you.

The wing pins and charms are here!
Over the next week or two I will be making the pin chains and dust plug charms, checking pin quality, packaging etc.
Surveys have been sent and I think I am only waiting on one or two replies so thank you so much!
If you haven't replied yet or want to make changes, I plan to lock surveys early next week, so please do that as soon as possible.
I am planning on shipping orders around the 25th of November. Please factor in shipping times and check your address will be correct for that time.
I also took the sample pins away with me, to take some shots in Japan, so I hope to post some pictures to Instagram over that time also.
I'm so excited to see this project coming to and end.
Thank you all again so so much

Wow
We are so close now!
So much has been happening, I have a piece of every Item in my hands now, except for the postcards and item backing cards, which are still a few weeks away.
I have been having a little trouble with Backer kit to get the surveys out. I think we have it sorted and they should be out in the next few days. Sorry about the delay but rest assured this is not holding anything up with production or shipping timelines :) I can confirm we are on track for November shipping.
Thank you again for making this set a reality! I can't wait to see which pins and chains you all choose.
Here is a group shot of all the samples together!! (I hope to share some better pictures on Instagram in the next few days)
And a quick up close of the Vespula Germadrill wings to help show the transparency and glitter not on black :)
And here is the Vespula Germakuna charm that we designed live, sample of the dust plug charm (USB-C version)
That's all for now.

So just like that my fist Kickstarter campaign is over.
Sorry for the little delay, I've been busy approving artwork and samples :)
What a great experience thanks to all of you lovely backers. I can't wait to see the whole collection together in real life. I hope to send out surveys in the next week. Don't worry if you are wishing you backed at a higher tier or added on something extra, you will have the ability to add items to your purchase, until we are almost ready to ship.
Follow us on Instagram to make sure you don't miss out on any news.
I also have a pre-order store open at Backerkit right now, so feel free to share with anyone you think might also be interested. I will be loading more options over the next day or two.
Once again. Thank you!

Germakuna charm finalised!

Our live stream on Friday night went great! Thanks to those who stopped by. We got an initial design for the charm!
After some tweaking and a colour change over the weekend, the design is now finalised and has been sent off to the manufacturer for both the pin chain and dust plug charm.
I'm so grateful I will be able to make these extra items.
I hope everyone likes them as much as I do.
We are now counting down in hrs not days! Consider sharing the project with anyone else you think may be interested.
Thank you all again.
Talk to you all at the end!
