Stylish and cute hats designed to look like birds!

Latest Updates from Our Project:

We're 45% Fulfilled!
about 4 years ago – Fri, Mar 06, 2020 at 10:11:06 PM

✨Over 100 packages have been sent out! Out of nearly 300✨

For those asking, I'm still in the process of sending out packages! Keep in mind I'm also awaiting more yellow glitter pins from the manufacturer, per my last update, since they only sent 50 out of about 125 that we needed 😞💦Due to the virus outbreak they've estimated the latest they would be ready is the 25th. Anyone that's currently left that doesn't have that pin in their order should expect to see their packages soon!

If you've already received your hat please post them on either Instagram or Twitter and be sure to tag me so I can feature your post! I currently have a Twitter moment going (pinned to my page) showcasing everyone's posts: https://twitter.com/i/events/1233096828515688450

Lastly, thank you all for your patience thus far! I know it's an arduous process but keep in mind that I'm only one person fulfilling all of these by myself and I'm typically at my day job for 8 hours a day so finding extra time to get these out fast has been a learning curve for sure. Hopefully with the next round we'll have a better method 💪✨

Shipping Update
about 4 years ago – Wed, Feb 12, 2020 at 02:57:56 PM

✨The shipping process has begun!✨

I have a lot of orders raring and ready to go! Being that there's over 300 orders I will have to do them in batches as not to overwhelm myself but also the local post office. 

Some orders will be delayed because the pin manufacturer mistakenly quoted me for 50 yellow and black bird pins instead of the amount I had submitted 🙃💦Apologies for the later orders including any of those items! I'm dealing with this issue right now so look in your email for updates on your order.

⚠️DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS!!!⚠️

If you've recently moved or need a change of address PLEASE contact me before next weekend (Feb 22-23) when the first wave of shipments will be going out. 

📩CHECK YOUR EMAILS📩

I have three people listed in BackerKit that still haven't sent in there survey! Meaning you haven't used the link provided in the email linked to your Kickstarter account to: pay for shipping, pick your hat/pin color, and provide your shipping address. I will hold several hats in stock for my online store in case these backers do eventually get back to me (if in case this is referring to you).

If you need to fill out the survey please follow this link:

And that's about it for now! Thank you all for your patience. I've been having a friend of mine help me package orders since I've mostly been doing this all by myself. Of course Mango tries to lend a hand as well.

Closing In On Shipping Day!
about 4 years ago – Mon, Jan 27, 2020 at 05:46:36 PM

I anticipated the hats to come in before this past weekend but it turned out to be the pins instead 😭💦

LUCKILY I checked the shipping number for the hats themselves and they SHOULD be here by tomorrow! I plan to do the shipping in segments as to pace myself (especially after sending out all of the pins for Skate Bird's KS lol). 

Above is a cute shot I got of the pins that were in at the time! I got home and the blue pins finally joined the party. I'm nervous about tomorrow when picking up the hats, however, because I'm not sure what the boxes will look like size wise. Hopefully not too big!

Last note for now: I'll be making a post and sending out emails/msgs to everyone that has yet to respond (as well as a warning post to check your address submitted).

Hat Previews!!

Here's a personal look at the hard copy of the pigeon design! The long awaited trash birb.

I had done a simple design layout hoping the manufacturer would be able to translate it better to the hat shape and they did so remarkably! 

I also received the mockups for the blue and pink hat, which we will be updating.

The initial colors I had chosen for the back logo and the wings was a bit too dark for my liking, especially if I wanted them to align with how the colors work on the yellow version. So we did a swatch test of lighter colors that look much better!

The next step now is to get all those birdies hatched an on their way home here in Pittsburgh so they can be packaged up and sent to their forever homes 💖

More updates to come!
