Shop Temporarily Closing


The Sleepy Robot 13 Etsy shop will be CLOSED starting tomorrow morning (12/1/2010) through the weekend while I try to catch up on the orders received while I was out of town. If I make a decent size dent in my current orders I will re-open sooner. I apologize to everyone hoping to place Christmas orders this weekend.

Designer Con Re-cap

Woo! Designer Con came and went in a blur! I kind of feel like I set up my booth and in a blink of an eye it was over. I had an amazing time. D-con was my very first convention, so I wasn't really sure what to expect. I made a few mistakes as far as planning and expenses (I had to travel from my home base in Ohio to Pasadena, CA for the show). I definitely know what to do differently next year.

The reception was great. A lot of people stopped by the booth and I even met a few celebrities. The highlight of my day was finally getting to meet Buff monster who is one of my favorite artists. I was taken by surprise by the number of people who walked up to my booth and handed me their sketch books. I guess sketches are the new autograph lol! I loved it though. My boyfriend Bobby was kind enough to help me out in the booth through out the day and I think he really enjoyed himself.I will turn him into a toy person yet!

Below I have added several pictures of the booth through out the day. If you would like to see pics from other exhibiting Designer Con artists click Here.
