First and foremost I LOVE your energy! I recently found your channel and I just want to say THANK YOU! so much for sharing your experience within all these cons you are attending. I'm an artist (artist alley noob) and your videos have been helpful ^_^
AHAHA I always hear it's a funny surprise whenever people see themselves pop up in the background of the vlog 🤣 hope the event was successful for you!! 🙌
I loved seeing your booth there! It was so cute and it caught my eye all weekend, sadly i was unable to purchase anything but hopefully next year if you attend i can get something
This was the first convention I sold at so I was pretty shocked by all the walking, but other than that I had a good time. A lot of people didn't seem super happy with how large the vendor/aa hall was but I think it's going back to normal next year? I was told this year was a fluke with how booking ended up.
thanks for watching and congrats on your first convention! 🙌 the walking was definitely a shock since most conventions i've vended at don't have such a distance between the entrance and the artist alley hall. I can't imagine what the trek was like if you had bad knees or mobility issues ˙◠˙ glad to hear it's going back to normal next year! i think vendors and attendees alike preferred the previous location for artist alley 😵💫
Cool, so I wasn't the only one! I have attended Momocon for YEARS, but due to nerve damage to my legs, walking around half confused to where things were was a legit NIGHTMARE. Once I finally found artist alley I did not have a very good time walking around. I'm not 100% sure if it was because I had no idea which artists were vending this year (I looked all over the website and couldn't find any information on artists tables) but hopefully that does change next year, I missed a BUNCH of artists 😰
@@PrinceBaraButterfly so sorry to hear about your experience 😵💫 I definitely thought about how the layout (con + AA wise) must've made it hard for those with mobility issues ˙◠˙ hope they implement some changes next year to make it a more pleasant experience for vendors and attendees alike! also, if you're curious about to the artist list, you can find it here! 😊www.momocon.com/artists/
That’s a lot of artist I attended a convention in Germany it had 700-1000+ artists. I agree with the space artists get as someone who has attended conventions I don’t understand why they make vendors isles big but the artist alley feels so congested I go early because that area gets packed later
wow that's a lot of artists 😳 and I agree, artist alley does tend to feel very cramped with little space in the aisle for attendees and also behind the table for vendors 😔
@@drawnbyivy it definitely is I don’t know how many went this year I think they had more applications as I’ve a friend from Europe who tabled there this year with a friend. It’s honestly sad 😔I suggested more room to the event I go to they added more space to vendors hall I’m come on people 😔
What's it like for the different seasons? I imagine cons are a warm weather event so im curious what your winter is like. I'm also curious if you vacuum pack the soft stuff for travel, I've seen lil handheld vacuums for sale for that. Might help with packing all the totes and hats
my convention schedule is at it's peak during march-aug so I definitely think most conventions do happen during the warm weather months! my schedule definitely looks MUCH more sparse throughout oct-jan (I'm lucky if I manage to land one event per month) so I definitely have to plan for the lack of the events in the later half of the year I personally don't vacuum seal as space usually isn't the primary problem when packing suitcases for travel (it's the 50lb weight limit on for checked bags on planes 🤧) I have thought about vacuum sealing when shipping out extra boxes though 🤣
Thank you for the shout out! So happy that you love the hair clips. That keeps me going further for more new designs xoxo!💋
thank YOU for gifting me such cute clips! can't wait to see what other designs you come up with 🤩🙌
@@drawnbyivy I’m on my new projects already. Be prepared to try some of them!
