The final colorways - Brown and Holographic! + Additional Sample Photos!
over 4 years ago – Mon, Aug 10, 2020 at 12:59:52 AM

Well, I was going to announce some new stretch goals for 200k this morning, but you all beat me to the goal before I could even post them!! :P Here are two final colorways that you will be able to select from -- Brown Froggie and Holographic Froggie!

Brown Froggie will have a few printed speckles on his body so that he slightly resembles a toad! A brown bag was heavily requested, and I think he would look so cute with anything cottagecore themed :)

Holographic Froggie was my own idea, because I am a sucker for anything shiny and magical hehe. :D Also, the Holographic colorway will have silver hardware instead of gold!!

Samples are currently being made for both the Brown and Holographic Froggies! Don’t worry, you will have a chance to see photos of the finished samples before your survey choices are locked in. :)

MANUFACTURER SAMPLE PHOTOS

My manufacturer is nearly done with the unlocked colorway samples, and I’m super excited to share the initial photos!! The colors look GREAT, even better than I was hoping for!! I included the main Green bag at the top so that you can easily compare it to the Mint bag, since they are both shades of green! *Please note that the lighting of the photos + your phone or monitor screen may make colors look slightly different than how the bags appear in-person.

I’m still waiting on photos of the inserts, and will share those once they’re ready! If my manufacturer doesn’t send photos, I will take my own photos once they arrive. Again, don’t worry, you will be able to see photos before your survey answers are locked in!

Thank you so, so much for the support -- just a few days left!! I’ll provide more updates about the survey soon! ♥

If you have any questions, please fully read over the campaign page + FAQ section first to see if it is answered there. Feel free to ask anything else in the comments!

over 4 years ago – Sat, Aug 08, 2020 at 03:57:23 AM

Hey everyone!! I've just added some new Pond Pals enamel pins that you can pledge for, in addition to all of the current unlocked filler pins! :)

Individual pins (Gator, Salamander, Dragonfly, Toad, and Duckling) are $10 each! The mini frog filler pins at the bottom of the image come in sets of two (leaf green + mint, blue + teal, purple + pink), and are $10 per set!

Please add +$10 to your pledge for every additional individual pin / mini pin set that you would like (or you can wait to purchase extras in the BackerKit preorder shop). You will be able to select which of the pin designs you would like to receive via the campaign survey that will be sent out after the Kickstarter ends! ♥

Thank you! Let me know if you have any questions! :D

Halfway Mark: Samples WIP + Froggie Pin Club! ♥
over 4 years ago – Sat, Aug 08, 2020 at 02:40:01 AM

Hey everyone! 

We’re a little over halfway through the campaign!! My manufacturer is currently working on the samples for all of the unlocked colorway stretch goals. Here is a photo of the Milkshake & Lavender Froggies immediately after getting their faces printed :) I expect the full samples for all colorways to be completed by next week, and will share more photos here once they are ready!

Other things currently happening:

  • In addition to the bag samples, I also ordered insert samples in a few additional colors (orange, beige, chocolate brown, and black)! I just want to see photos of how they look before officially adding them onto the campaign as options! :) 
  • Currently finishing up the additional Pond Pals enamel pins!

Also, I have just introduced a Froggie Pin Club tier through my Patreon Monthly Enamel Pin Club! I figured I would share it here in case any frog fans here are interested! ♥ September 2020’s theme is a lil froggie ice cream cone!! Join here by August 31st to receive this pin in late Sept/early Oct!

♡ Thank you all so much! ♡

2 New Bag Colorways Added - Milkshake & Nighttime! ♥
over 4 years ago – Sun, Jul 26, 2020 at 05:29:26 PM

Two new bag colorways have officially been added to the campaign, & are immediately available for pledging! Say hi to our newest friends, Milkshake Froggie and Nighttime Froggie! ♥ 

Milkshake is a slightly warm/creamy white color, as its name implies! And unlike the other Froggies, Nighttime will have white eyes + mouth instead of black! I think it would go great with goth or Halloween themes! :)

There have been a lot of requests for more neutral colors, so I hope that this cookies & cream-esque duo will be well-received~ 

If you've already pledged for a Froggie Ita Bag, you do not have to re-pledge or alter your existing your pledge in order to receive either of these colorways. You will be able to choose from ALL unlocked colorways once the campaign is over via an e-mail survey! :)

Also, I just placed an order for more physical bag samples, so that you all will be able to see what each colorway looks like! Milkshake & Nighttime are included in this sample order, so I'll share photos here once they are complete!

FUNDED IN 90 SECONDS! + ALL CURRENT STRETCH GOALS UNLOCKED!
over 4 years ago – Sun, Jul 26, 2020 at 12:36:37 PM

Hey everyone! I seriously can’t believe it -- we reached our funding goal in 90 SECONDS. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Froggie bag is OFFICIALLY HAPPENING! AHHHH!!

And!! Not only that, but every single stretch goal was unlocked in the first 40 minutes of the campaign! I can’t thank everyone enough for showing such excitement & support on my very first Kickstarter project!

Thanks to your amazing support, I’m currently working on even more stretch goal rewards to add to the campaign, including:

  •  MORE enamel pins! Specifically, a Pond Pals collection, so that your Froggie pins can have some more animal buddies!! :D
     
  •  MORE colorway options for the Froggie Ita Bag!
     

I will also be placing an order for color samples with my manufacturer this weekend so that everyone can see what each bag color will look like! Keep an eye out on the campaign for progress shots & updates!

Thank you again, and be sure to share this project with your frog-loving friends & family members!! :)
