Update #8: The Story Behind Your Earring
Update #7: On their way. It won't be long now!
Hi Backers
The Earrings are FINISHED and we are really happy how they turned out! Have a look at the finished pieces and try and spot yours.
If you can, please take the time to share the page with your friends either on facebook, by email or get out your quill or fountain pen and write them a letter.
Word of mouth advertising is important to us and enables us to spend our time creating cool stuff instead of just talking about it.

Thanks for your support,

Update #6: Earrings in Production
Dear Patrons
Your first batch of customized Streets Earrings are going into the etching bath this week. Next week they are being gold plated. The week after next we will be busily attaching the hooks and putting on the finishing touches before sending them off to you.
On our Facebook page you can see an image of a test we did to see how fine we can go making your earrings.

Update #5: Please Choose Your Section
Dear Backer,
about half of the project backers have chosen their location with the help of our interface already. If you haven't got an e-mail with a link to the interface, please contact us via info@fluid-forms.com
If you have got the web-link, please choose your section as soon as possible, because the production run can't start before we have got all sections.
Thanks and best,
Hannes, Stephen & John
Update #4: Thanks! Next steps to get your rewards
Update #3: 100% + + +
So we have reached our goal... and some more!
We can make more Earrings, so please continue with the funding!
This is awesome! Thank you everyone that has participated.
We can't wait to see what area you will select!

That's fantastic - well done on achieving the goal so quickly.
So what are the next steps for us supporters? -
Stephen Williams on March 16, 2010
Stephen has almost the interface done. Most likely we will show you how to select your piece. We will set up something.
Unfortunately we don't have anyone's email till the ending of the project, so i guess we have to wait till then.

I'd love to be able to get one of those, but strangely Amazon Payments doesn't let me: I'm living in Switzerland, but can only add an US address. Any idea how I can chip in?

The earrings look incredible. Thank you so much for making them. I will do a big email note to friends and family and let them know. My location has special importance to the whole family and will be an amazing keepsake for years to come.
Thanks for the feedback Marie!
I would love to hear your story if you have time to flip me an email. Hearing peoples stories makes all the hard work worth while.
