I went to Calgary Expo! I was super excited this year to be able to sell my lil flowers at my local fan expo event! It was crazy busy, and I was SO exhausted after vending for a whole four days in a row.
I also got to meet Mona from Nanalan and honestly she was so cute and so smol and amazing :')

Hi im a recent fan and I really like your vlogs! I also sell at Vancouver conventions so it's nice to see familiar faces in your vlogs! :D I hope I can catch you at one of the Vancouver events! I also tried for Anirevo but the 5 tables went sooo fast T_T I also made some red spider lilies for a commission recently and it makes me admire your work even more because I was highkey struggling with wrapping and putting the flowers together LOL

HII OMG I'm hoping to share a table with my friend for anirevo bc omg that was an impossible task with those tables omg I've been working on some red spider lilies too omg i was having the hardest time making it look like anything thats not just a big tangled ball of yarn on a stick LOL

Maybe you could try to work with other artists, and make limited time versions of their original characters, make certain flowers and plants that fit their themes, and help at their booths instead of having your own big booth, just so you don’t give yourself so much burnout, but can still crochet as part of your business? You could also sell pattern cards (I literally just made this idea up), where you write a pattern on a mini card or in a tiny booklet, and sell copies of the pattern with little doodles on it so it’s cute and people can put them on their walls? Just slowly drifting away from everything you make being completely handmade by you so you can grow and become more successful.

Ahh thank you so much! I love the idea of collaborating with other artists and creators, I might have to look into trying to make that work!! THE POSTCARD IDEA IS SO CUTE TOO OMG *writing these downnnnn*
