Hello everyone!

A huge big thank you for an amazing campaign! An especially big thank you goes to all the backers that have pledged to make this project come to life, my heart goes out to each and everyone of you! We were so close to unlocking the second design "Steamy Dumpling" and I have decided to put in some of my own savings to offer this design as an option for ALL existing backers and in the pre-order store!

All backers will be receiving emails regarding processing of payments in the next few days. In the email, Backerkit will indicate if your payment has been processed successfully or has failed.

If you have failed payments, please get them verified and correct as soon as possible as it is very important for the next step of the process of this project and to prevent further delays.

What's next?

Surveys will be sent out in approximately 2 weeks time as I prepare them. When they are sent out, you will be able to confirm your pledge, optionally upgrade your pledge if you wish, add on any items that you might have missed during the campaigns and set up payment for shipping.

Pre-order Store Open!

For those that have missed out the campaign, the pre-order store is now OPEN!! You will be able to purchase items in this store AND receive them the same time as backers!

CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE PRE-ORDER STORE

**PLEASE NOTE: If you have backed this project, please wait until you receive your survey to add on items. If you utilize the preorder store as a backer, you will be charged for shipping twice. The same items will be available during the survey.**

Thank you once again for pledging to make this project happen, I could not have done it without ya'll!

Initially I wanted to receive a physical sample before the campaign launched but I wanted to make sure that my manufacturer gets as close to what I've envisioned in my mind as possible so there has been a lot of back and forth to try and refine it as much as possible. That's the only reason I do not have a proper sample to show off to ya'll but here are some of the most recent photos sent to me by the manufacturer and we are 95% there!

They have been exceedingly patient with my revisions and I am so happy that the sample is almost done! I have also put in a request for a slightly wider grocery bag instead of it just being square for more space to use. Hopefully we can finish this sample off by the end of the week and ship it to me by next week!

We've hit over A$1000!! That is only A$500 away from unlocking our next design the Steamy Dumpling! We're a little over the halfway mark for this campaign and have about 11 days left so if we want to unlock that dumpling we need YOU! Yes YOU, to tell all your friends and family about getting their hands on an exclusive yumyumcha plush reusable bag charm! 

A biggest thank you to everyone who has pledged so far, we couldn't have done it without ya'll! We've hit the initial goal of getting our Siu Mai design funded!! 

All early bird freebies have been claimed (your exclusive handcrafted yumcha themed lucky red envelope) BUT there is still 5 more early bird tiers with discounted pricing still available to pledge for! Don't forget that every pledge after this first goal goes toward unlocking the next design in the series and Steamy Dumpling is up next so let's keep the momentum going!!

Thank you all once again from the bottom of my heart <3

I don't about ya'll but I'm buzzing with excitement with being able to share this project with everyone! I know some of you are eagerly waiting to be able to get your hands on your very own YumYumCha merch and we'll be able to do so very soon!

Here is a sneak peek of some goodies and freebies to expect:

This is the full planned stretch goals (including the initial funding goal) we have so far and if we knock it out of the park and unlock them all, I will most definitely be adding more.


Don't forget that the first 20 backers of ANY pledge tier also receive a handcrafted YumYumCha themed lucky red envelope + Lunar New Year vinyl sticker.
Also not to forget that you have access to exclusive cross collab rewards if you back both projects (physical tiers containing a plush reusable bag charm only)!


That's all for now and will be the final update before the big launch, see ya'll very soon on the other side!

How cross collab works is that if you back both projects, you unlock FREEBIES from BOTH of these projects! So if you back both of our projects, you will receive an exclusive YumYumCha vinyl sticker pack from me and an adorable onigiri acrylic charm from Pinbuds!
