For those who missed the kickstarter campaign, we're opening it up for those who still really want to order a Cork! If you have any questions regarding shipping, details about the plush etc, please refer to the Kickstarter Campaign page. That has everything laid out in detail for you! To keep things simple, we are not offering the different tiers that came with the campaign. And, of course, if you end up having any questions or need guidance, please don't hesitate to reach out and ask! ***Your pre-order will be locked within a few days of you placing it. This means you cannot change your order or card information. Then 24 hours after your order is locked your card will be charged. We will lock in addresses closer to delivery date***

Hey Mashies!
June has come and gone and our Kickstarter Campaign deadline is quickly approaching on July 11.
We're still hopeful we'll hit our first stretch goal of $55k, which will allow us to begin work on the Tricatatops Plush!! We've been focusing on reaching out to boosters and promoters to get the Cork Kickstarter seen by as many people as possible during this last week.
We want to thank everyone again who has shared our Kickstarter and who's spread the word! Word of mouth and sharing with your circle is the most successful form of advertising after all! SO THANK YOU!! It would be super duper helpful if you share and spread the word for this last push! We got this!
WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU
Since we reached our funding goal, when the campaign ends on July 11, your card will be charged for the amount you pledged.
After that, we'll remain in contact with you via email to keep you updated on the project and request any information we need.
(If needed, on the Cork Kickstarter page, you'll see an option to “Manage your pledge” which will allow you to make any changes to your pledge - (like going up a tier to get more corks!! 😀)
WHAT'S NEXT FOR THE CORK
Once the project ends, we have to wait to receive the final payout from Kickstarter after they remove their fees and taxes (🥲). This process could take up to 2 weeks.
Once we get that money, we'll submit the order to Squishable to begin production!
And then....that hardest part. We wait 😭
After the campaign ends, we'll continue to keep you updated on the production and project process through the Kickstarter Updates.
Down the road, once the Cork is ready to ship, you'll receive an email from BackerKit asking for shipping information and last-minute details before we work to get the Cork to you!
That's all we can think of for now! But if you have any questions or comments please feel free to let us know ^_^ As always WE APPRECIATE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!

We just got our "Project We Love" Badge from Kickstarter! Which is their way of "highlighting brilliant examples of creativity". This means they'll feature the Cork campaign across Kickstarter!
We have still 18 days left on the Kickstarter and, as we post this, we are 149% funded. This means we are setting our eyes on the stretch goals! If we can reach 55k, we'll start making a second plush design right away! The second design is the Tricatatops, a Triceratops + Norwegian Forest Cat from the Purrasic Park series! Half dino, half cat, all adorable and guaranteed to knock something off your counters.....
Thank you all for the shares! Spreading the word has been a majority of our marketing and it's WORKING. So thank you all for being the best mashies ever!

Wow, folks. WOW!!!! In less than a week after launch, the Cork is fully funded. We seriously can't believe it.....did we say wow yet???? Cuz WOW!!
The amount of support this community and all of you have shown throughout this project has left me speechless. You've seriously helped me bring my dream to life and I can't wait to get the Cork into your loving arms.
Here are a few important things to note:
We're continuing to push the Kickstarter in the hopes we can reach our first Strech Goal of $55k which will allow us to begin work and fund the next Mashables Plush, the Tricatatops!!
If you'd love to see this adorable bean come to life as a plushie and keep your Cork company, please continue to share and spread the word :)
Again. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!! We wouldn't be where we are right not without this absolutely amazing community and all of your support <3
