Last weekend I went to Torucon, a big local convention that I always try to attend. After 2-3 years of hiatus for the con, it was finally back!
Let me just start off by saying thank you! Thank you all who visited my artstand this year! It means so much to me to see people so happy to be back at cons again, but also all the people who checked my stand and webstore <3
I opened this shop last year and Covid didn’t make things easy for small businesses like my own. I was nervous and curious to see what people would think about all of my new merchandise options and I can safely say that it was a massive success!
Again whether you bought anything or just checked out my stand, I am so grateful that you did! I’m not going to sugarcoat the fact that the time before the con was pretty hectic for me due to several different reasons such as technical problems, I had to push several ideas away due to time, I just moved and more! So when I went to Torucon on Saturday morning I felt I hadn’t done enough even though I know I had done everything I could!
Boy was I shocked when it ended up being so popular!
I am also so happy that I decided to have my artstand in the big open room instead this year because it let me actually see what everyone was up to and I got to enjoy watching peoples cosplays <3
So you might ask….what now? Well, I am going to prepare for another upcoming convention that I will attend in October. The shop is technically still on hiatus due to the move and such, but if people are interested in premade designs I am able to take those kinda orders later this week or next week. I’ll let you all know when the shop is ready to take customs again <3
Oh! And yes I will add the frosted mugs to the shop as soon as possible! They sold out at the con and I know a lot of people wanted to get those! I can happily say that I have already ordered new ones that are on their way! 🙂
One last time!
Thank you all for attending Torucon 2022! Sincerely a very happy pony!
The new mugs were a hit! I can’t wait to get my hands on my own. I was honoured to witness your success and see your hard work be rewarded!
Sincerely, a very happy cat
