sorry for the lack of activity STILL, college is ...... whoa. WHOA. whoa. gonna die. I'm SOOO busy it's not even funny. I keep having nervous/panic breakdowns.

But I won't go into details.

And I do read all the comments you people leave, I just lack the time to reply as of late, but I really do feel grateful that you even give me any attention at all (which baffles me). Love to all of yous, thank you guys ♥

Anyway. So ACen is early May, and I want to be prepared before last minute this time. So I wanted to ask you guys, what do you buy at the artist tables? Or, what would you like to see me offer?

I want to offer a decent variety, but I don't know what's worth making a few/alot of or whats worth making at all.

Last time all I had was a few different bookmarks, a few 4x6ish sized prints, and a good handful of 8.5x11 prints. This year, I think I might do some buttons/pins (omg, i have no idea what of though. what would you guys like to see if I did it?), and maybe a few 11x17 prints, but do you guys acutally buy those? (I do, but that's me and I'm weird). I know people like smaller prints so I'm going to offer more of those, but what about the larger ones?

Uhh what else. Oh. Is there anything else you think would be something good to offer? I know some artists do keychains, but I have noooo clue how to do those, so uh yeah ahahah. But yeah. Throw me ideas! Suggestions! Even suggestions on which pieces you think would make good prints/buttons/whatever.

Sorry for all the questions! But I know alot of you are con goers or actually HAVE tables at cons too, and I'd love some help. And chances are, I'll probably offer leftovers on LJ and here on DA from what doesn't sell (or maybe even before, to help pay for the cost making more) /FAIL

sadly ACen is the only con i attend, its too costly to fly someplace else and go. I'll most likely offer left overs (which there will be) here on DA, so you an always get them that way! thank you for showing interest @w@ ♥

Well, I never buy things at cons becaue I'm poor, but the few times I browsed, I was really interested in buying small prints, stickers, bookmarks (preferably with bling), pins and keychains. Your art has a really good graphic quality, so you ought to try different things like... stationary or book covers or coasters or necklace pendants, something really wild and different.

Preferably with bling.

STATIONARY.

how did I forget that one!! I have this I might make copies of and sell, but I totally forgot about it until you just reminded me. Maybe I can make some cuter/colorfuler designs, too. Thanks~

yeah, that was the one i remembered! well, I wouldn't make too many copies, since teens nowadays probably text message and instant message more than they write, but you know... some of us senior citizens might want a notepad or cute envelopes or letter-sheets because we still know how to hand-write. i personally would love it.

If you can make them at a good price, make some t-shirts. If you have a unique, bold design they'll sell really well and people will be willing to pay a little more than what they cost to make since its something durable and useful. Cleaner designs tend to be better, such as [link]

Good luck with the con stuff!
