Yasss so glad you did so well at this convention! It still boggles my mind how many expenses you must have doing these international cons and (hopefully) make the money back plus more! That’s such a huge effort! Glad you have help now! Hopefully your camera arrives soon! They’re hard to find here in Australia too (but I love mine, they’re so inconspicuous 😅) worth the wait!!
thank you so much!! it added up pretty quickly hahaha next year i definitely need to put a bit more thought into what shows i do and how expensive it might be aheh.. this one was still worth it for me since the profit was high and the airport/con/hotel were all really close! I just hate that so much product needs to be sold just to make expenses back :S I'm hoping to do more tourist-y ones next year so I can actually enjoy the travelling part of it too hahhaha
First of all, so glad this show went well! Also as a heads up as an Otakon con goer for 10+ years (ew I'm old), be prepared for a BIG SATURDAY! Like every year I say "Oh I'll buy this on Saturday because Friday is to look around!" EVERY YEAR WITHOUT FAIL those artists work that I wanted....sold out. So yes, you are correct, the Otakon crow comes to SHOP! And we love to support our artists! Finally, be ready for your wifi to go out on Saturday. It's THAT BUSY on Saturday (it's literally insane). So maybe make it aware to your audience that cash would maybe be preferred??? But can't wait to see you at Otakon!
Ahh omg I'm nervous but also I'm ready to prepare SO MUCH STUFF !! I feel like with our lil team now instead of just me, I should be able to make maybe 2-3x the number of flowers I usually bring hehe also because i have like a full 2 months to prep LOL also thank you for the warning on the wifi hahaha I just might have to make a post about cash then hahaha SEE YOU THEN!!!
Hi! OMG I saw your booth at Acen and I really regret not picking any flowers up :( If you come back next year I'm definitely gonna help myself to some flowers hehe (side note: I actually got super interested in crochet flowers after seeing your products and I didn't know you sold patterns - but I'll probably be picking some up
im a fan from Ph 🥰 u r one of the reason i started doing displays for my crochet stuff too (just a few ones bc i cannot do it like u) and ive been selling out as well 🥹 will be taking a break tho bc priorities but watching ur vlogs excites me for when i am back (crocheting) and am no longer afraid to do a lot and display at more events!
Ahh, it was such a pleasant surprise seeing your booth at Acen!! If you want to see the Bean next time, you could try tabling at C2E2, which is usually downtown so much closer to most of the famous landmarks 😄 Hope to see you again next year!!
I always look forward to your vloggs. Love! Love the flowers you make too. I do crochet flowers here and there but I'd like to get better at it. Thank you for being my inspiration🙏💜🌺🌻🌹
I'm excited that you're coming to otakon, I hope I can stop by your table! It's one of the biggest cons in the area so I'm sure you'll do well!! Also regarding your Square payment issue, at other cons I've noticed that some international artists have like a Paypal QR code for people who want to pay via card/don't have cash so maybe that could be an option for you?
i’m from texas and if you ever flew down for a con in houston or dallas make sure you have a good amount of bluebonnets!! texas does not play around with the state flower and you could sell a very good amount!!
First. Also a great way to start my morning. I personally like more of the raw style vlogs. Some peoples are almost too polished and sometimes doesn’t make them feel like real. As far as the shop I am definitely going to get the bouquets. But are you going to put up those keychains as well? (Sorry for how long this)
Thank you so much!! I appreciate that especially because I've been trying to clean up my editing and I think I'm just not good at it LOL I probably will not put the keychains up - I'm slowly discontinuing them!
Tina. I'm trying to crochet your cherry blossoms. I can't find any canadian yarn similar to hobbii 4/8. Can you tell me what kind of lions brand you used? I just have michaels and walmart near me. Thanks!
Thank you! I normally try to, but because everything is so far away (not walking distance) in the con area, our only choices were starbucks and the $5 bottles of water from the concierge :S We did try to bring our own water the other days!
Thank you for your support 😭😭😭 I have been watching your videos since probably the beginning (on my personal account). I still cannot believe that you came to my table and bought stuff from me 🤯 I will be at Otakon too! I will be tabling solo again, but I will try harder to come to your table this time 🫶❤️
omg haha thank youuuu, your stuff was so cute, the dogs are wearing their bandanas right now hahaha I will have some friends with me at Otakon so I'll definitely stop by!

@@madewithapril green and moist 😂
Congrats on the con success! When is your online store going to restock?
Thank you! Probably second week of June!
i’m from texas and if you ever flew down for a con in houston or dallas make sure you have a good amount of bluebonnets!! texas does not play around with the state flower and you could sell a very good amount!!
Ouuu noted hehe
Are you perhaps coming to Winnipeg aikon this year?!
I didn't get in :(

I probably will not put the keychains up - I'm slowly discontinuing them!
@@madewithapril do you have any keychains left?
Tina. I'm trying to crochet your cherry blossoms. I can't find any canadian yarn similar to hobbii 4/8. Can you tell me what kind of lions brand you used? I just have michaels and walmart near me. Thanks!
I think they recently changed the name, but the Michael's acrylic brand (loops and threads) works well!
@@madewithapril Thank you!
hope you'll come to momocon one day!
Maybe next year!
I was talking to you! I was trying to show you my crochet page lol
Haha hii! I remember!!
I wont be able to catch you at anirevo in Aug! But hopefully you can sell out!
Thank you!!
How did you manage to do sales in states being Canadian?
I have a friend help me with all the logistics of it, so to be honest I'm not really sure what the legal/tax process of it is ;;
Was anime central 2024 worth it this year in chicago
It was my first time and I made back all my expenses and more!
@@madewithapril great to here I mean except your expenses how was it I feel the year I went was better what was the best cosplay
Does Julia crochet flowers too?
She helps with the assembly!
I love you please don’t die
omg o-ok
How much did u make?
i really appreciated your channel and efforts, but please try boycotting starbucks.
Thank you! I normally try to, but because everything is so far away (not walking distance) in the con area, our only choices were starbucks and the $5 bottles of water from the concierge :S We did try to bring our own water the other days!
@@madewithapril okay i appreciate that you tried!!
Wet money is so gross😂😂
