As a dinosaur in the AA scene, I thank you for your in depth demonstration for this type of display. I've been doing only wire cubes but been meaning to do the switch to a more proper (and easier to set up) floating bar display for some time now. Tutorials like this were far in between to word of mouth/non existent back in the day. I hope you have a lovely day
gosh thank you!!! I pay my respects to those who have been on the scene for years ~ hopefully you found a good idea or 2 here, thanks for joining innnn
@@Sundrop.Studios Oh my goodness I sure did gain a couple ideas!! Definitely gonna try the velcro thing for the prints first- I am SO DONE with taping my prints up!! And you are doing amazing, no matter what happens, follow your heart and I think you'll be lead the right way! You're very welcome
i really appreciate this video! it’s nice to see how other artists plan their aa set up’s, and i’ve never seen another artist go into such depth and detail as you do. thanks so much!!
Your table is always so gorgeous and eye-catching, I'm so happy to see the process explained in such a helpful and accessible manner! Thank you so much for sharing. 💖 Also that table runner looks soooo good, it's crazy how much it brings the setup together.
Absolutely this was so helpful~ Thank you for showing what you use visually, some people just show pictures but this was nice to see in motion on how you do it.
yus! I saw someone else do that and HAD to ask them about it. Haven't switched back since! It does take a little bit of some planning and practice though!
this is awesome info thank you!! I'm still very much a baby in merch artist category (im designing my first stickers) and to hope reach this level and have my own booth someday at a convention! I just recently found your channel and you make something like vending at an artist alley seem much more possible in my eyes thank you so much! and you're an inspiration :D
You got this! Starting artist alleys is a lot of fun and a great start into your journey as a business person! But it certainly comes with a lot of ups and downs and risk. Best of luck~
I LOVE THIS VIDEO !! and thank you so much for the links they are so helpful! I've been searching high and low for the exact product for a sturdier display! to the wishlist it goes hahahah
THANKS FOR WATCHING! I’m glad it helped! I think this kit is worth saving up for (and again, I have 2 of them so I can be flexible with all the pieces). It’s $$$ but it’s high quality af
If you're running out of space for your tote bags, you can put it on the front table beside your cloth banner, clip it, and people can see it is a tote bag. A small con about this is it may not be visible if people crowd your booth.
Love this video!!! Quick Question though- Have you ever had issues with prints falling with the Velcro strips? I’m so paranoid that things would fall LOL
Separating every print design into their own bags is such a good idea! I always waste so much time digging through trying to find one print during transactions 😵💫
Your table is so stinking cute! I've been stressing about changing the way I display my mini prints, and this helped me get my thoughts organized. *Chef's kiss*
I'm still a newbie to artist alley, so I've been wondering if I should try out using the photo stand method. I just clip them to wire grids but it gets super tall and intimidating I think haha. Also thanks for showing how you store prints for conventions! Tried out multiple boxes until I saw your recommendation! 😅
oh I started off with grid panels too! I used magnets to get my prints to stay up but it was very time consuming and I didn't like that they were so visible AND that I was LOSING them all the time lol! hoping you found some good ideas here :>
Has anyone ever tried stealing? I always wondered how you keep track of everything, especially if its busy, also have never done a convention, though it seems very scary at least for me...
Honestly I wouldn't know, but I'm sure it's happened to me. That's obviously the risk you take if you decide to do a self-serve type of display. I think it's worth it because I LIKE ppl touching my stuff and recognizing that everything feels high-quality. I have never caught someone blatantly stealing off my table, but I have seen little kids grip stickers and almost walk off with them XD. A simple, "oh kiddo! Can I have that back?" usually gets them to pause and hand it back over hahaha. I take stock before and after every event and the numbers have always come out just about right. I also tend to give stickers away for free to friends or bonus freebies who watch my vlogs ;)

OOOO THATS ME IM THE ONE PERSON WHO ASKED FOR THIS LET'S GOOOOOO
THIS IS FOR YOU
Really interesting. I always love watching how people build their displays. x
If you're running out of space for your tote bags, you can put it on the front table beside your cloth banner, clip it, and people can see it is a tote bag. A small con about this is it may not be visible if people crowd your booth.
Omg yeah! I used to do that, but never figured out an elegant way of securing it. I think magnets might work- tho I’d want to get heavy duty ones
Love this video!!! Quick Question though- Have you ever had issues with prints falling with the Velcro strips? I’m so paranoid that things would fall LOL
Cool!
Thank you for the in depth steps to setting up your booth! It's really fun to see and I learned some really good tips.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for sitting thru my extensive over explanation 🤪🧡
50 minute video 😍
Yessssir
Separating every print design into their own bags is such a good idea! I always waste so much time digging through trying to find one print during transactions 😵💫
This might be the aspect I’m most proud of in my display LOL, and no one even sees it 😅
Your table is so stinking cute! I've been stressing about changing the way I display my mini prints, and this helped me get my thoughts organized. *Chef's kiss*
Glad to help someone out there 🥹
YEEES love this
Hehe

those sticker trays are nice! most often they're way too deep and bulky
I think so too! Each spot is like 3”x3” so it fits most stickers perfectly, and I like stocking up to 40 stickers deep in them

may I ask, where did you buy your rug? xD
