Preorder Crown Fox Enamel Pin Opening!

Hi friends! <3

Today was a very exciting day because... My package from Peppermint Fox finally arrived! Back in September, I saw they were doing a preorder for a fox enamel pin and just had to get one. The fox looked like a king <3 However, due to production delays it took a lot longer than expected.

Thoughts:

It's so cute! <3 The fox is adorable. The enamel is highly detailed and well done. The metal is thick and sturdy. I was surprised that it had two pin backs, but it is a little heavier than their usual wooden pins/brooches. I was not happy with the delay as I was looking forward to wearing it in the fall on my jacket. The free gift sounded nice, but it turned out to be a coupon with a discount code for my next enamel pin order. I would have preferred a postcard or art print featuring the crown fox. Then I could frame it for display. For now though, I'll just hang onto the coupon. Hopefully they do more fox pins in the future. Maybe a princess one? ;-)
