Hi Everyone,
cauldron-ita.backerkit.com
click the link above if you cant find/lost your survey
I wanted to let you all know that the surveys have been sent and you can now pick out your bag colors, pins, add-ons, and pay for shipping.
I put out a disclaimer page in your survey. I highly recommend reading it if you have never used backerkit before!
This is my first time using backerkit’s services so, there may be something I missed or have wrong and if you find that to be the case, please let me know!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me through my email: [email protected]
You may also email backerkit if you run into any problems.
Regarding Samples:
I dont have the second samples ready yet. I have been in contact with my manu though and she told me they will be done either at the end of October or beginning of November. I will be keeping both the surveys and the backerkit preorder store open until I have the samples in hand and can show you all just in case you decide to change bag colors.
Charging Cards:
When paying for shipping and or add-ons on backerkit, you will not be charged right away if youre using a debit or credit card. If you wish to be charged as soon as youre done with your survey, I would recommend paying with paypal.
I will be posting a date soon on when you can expect your cards to be charged but, aim for either the end of october or early to mid november if you pledged for a bag. I apologize it isnt more narrowed down but, like I said, I want to wait until I have the samples in hand and can show you all what to expect.
Expect to be charged on October 21st if you pledged for anything other than an ita bag.
Charging cards means that anything purchased in the add-on store and or shipping will be deducted from your accounts. All funds added to your kickstarter pledge have already been deducted from your account and you WILL NOT be charged again when I press the ”charge cards” button for these amounts
Thank you all for your support!
Until next time,
Courtney
We did it!! + Survey Info - Important Info Attached
over 3 years ago
– Mon, Oct 05, 2020 at 05:15:28 PM
Hi Everyone,
I just thought Id quickly come on here and update that you all that the Kickstarter is officially over and we hit all of our goals!! I am honestly in awe at how far this Kickstarter came because I truly didnt think I‘d even hit 6k let alone 20k!
I honestly couldn‘t have done this without your guys’ amazing support and I really appreciate you all supporting this bag and my witchy obsession.
Im, unfortuantely, still waiting on the updated sample BUT I did put in an order for the pink and purple versions, as well, about 2 weeks ago. Hopefully, I can have all 3 samples in my hands by the end of October however, China is having a Holiday soon from the 1st to the 5th, I think, as well as something on the 8th. So, this will unfortuantely delay the samples further. But, I will be keeping surveys open until I recieve the samples in hand that way you all can make your final decisions before they go into mass production.
That does bring me to my next topic of Surveys.
The surveys will be done using Backerkit. Since the project has concluded, I can now put my surveys into review with backerkit and once they are approved I will send them out ASAP. Im hoping you all will recieve an email for your surveys either late this week or early next.
With the backerkit surveys, youll not only be choosing your rewards but thats also where I will be collecting shipping costs. This charge of shipping costs was stated multiple times throughout the campaign and if its not paid, you will not recieve your items until it is paid.
When you recieve your surveys, youll also be able to choose any additional products youd like to add on inside of the Add-On page. If you added money to your Kickstarter pledge, youll be given a credit to use inside of the add-on shop to choose the items you pledged for. Please make sure you choose which items you added on for in backerkit otherwise, that extra money will be treated as a donation.
You will not be charged immediately inside of backerkit after checking out. There will be a ”charge cards” button on my end that I can push and charge all of the credit or debit cards at once. Im planning for the first wave of cards to be charged by the end of october or early november. If youd like to pay right away, you will have the option to pay using paypal.
You will not be double charged when I press the ”charge cards” button if you paid using paypal. Only purchases made with a debit or credit card that wasnt already money accounted for in Kickstarter will be charged when the button is pressed. I will be updating you all when this will happen using kickstarter or backerkit updates. You can also check my instagram (@cinnitea) for these updates.
Id also like to note that NO REFUNDS will be given after your card has been charged with both kickstarter and backerkit. I listed this on the Risks and Challenges page on the Kickstarter as well. This has been there on all of my other campaigns, as well as, since the beginning of this campaign. I apologize if its inconvient for you but, its to help protect me since this project is very expensive in general.
If you have any questions, please feel free to write them here, on this update. You can also message me personally either on Kickstarter, Instagram, or email me at help[at]cinnitea[dot]com
Thank you all so much again for the amazing support!
Until next time,
Courtney
Cute Witch Club - Exclusive button freebie
over 3 years ago
– Tue, Sep 15, 2020 at 11:53:10 PM
Hi Everyone!
I wanted to quickly update you all that I just added another freebie for all physical rewards! I designed a little button for you all and I really hope you like it. So, without further adieu welcome to the Cute Witch Club!
(anyone in digital rewards cannot recieve this freebie unless they add it on, they will be responsible to pay for shipping after the Kickstarter is over - same as everyone else if added on same goes with adding any other item)
Ive had a button maker for some time now and havent used it for awhile so, this is a throwback for me. I really wanted to give you all something that could be added to your ita bag and worn seperately that can be used more than once (aka not a sticker).
I really hope you all like it! Im personally really happy with how it came out and now everyone will know that you’re a cute witch (if they didnt already).
Until next time,
Courtney

Hi Everyone,
Thank you to everyone that wished me well yesterday. I really appreciated all the kind words and, thankfully, started feeling better later in the afternoon.
As a thank you for all your support on this campaign, I wanted to give you all this free digital wallpaper!
All tiers that include a reward will recieve this wallpaper for FREE! No need to add on anything at all! This reward will be distributed in November and will be emailed to the email attached to your Kickstarter. Please make sure this is an email you have access to in order to obtain your reward.
I really hope you all like it. If you recognize the design, its because this will also be the interior lining! (the interior lining will not be colored like this, you can see what the interior lining will look like on the campaign).
Thank you all for the continued support!
Until next time,
Courtney
This digital reward is for personal use only! Do not use this design for any commercial use or on products. Altering this design in any way will not make it your copyrighted work. Thank you.

Hi Everyone,
I honestly cant believe we did it! The lilac purple bag and the love is poison acrylic charm are now officially unlocked!
I will be updating the Kickstarter soon to reflect this but Im, unfortuantely, not feeling very well today. I will be taking today and, possibly, tomorrow off from working on art related things and hopefully be back to feeling like myself on Monday.
Thank you all so much for the support! It truly means the world to me and I cant wait to continue this bag making journey with you all.
Of you ever have any questions, please feel free to reach out either on kickstarter, instagram (@cinnitea), or email me at help[at]cinnitea.com .
