Hi guys! I just wanted to give everyone a quick update regarding custom orders. Due to the high volume of orders I've been receiving and the upcoming holiday season, I will not be taking any new custom item requests until mid January 2012. This includes wedding orders of all kinds. If you sent me a request before 08/04/2011 and confirmed that you were ok with the time frame/price you have been added to the waiting list and will be receiving your custom item(s) by September 15, 2011. I apologize to everyone who has sent me requests over the last week and to anyone who was planning to order custom items for Christmas gifts. Unfortunately I am only one person and there are only so many hours in a day:(

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.

Blue & Gold Golden Ticket Wedding Cake Toppers

I recently made custom wedding cake toppers for Mrs. Mollie Ruth using the color theme of their wedding as well as the golden ticket design of their invitations. She was kind enough to send me a few photos of their cake and I wanted to share them with you!

DIY Robots

I have made available again in my Etsy shop a few of my blank robots and I lowered the price! You can now get them for only $5.50. I have also dedicated a section of Sleepyrobot13.com to photos sent in of finished bots (it can be found here.) Below you will find a few pictures of photos that have already been sent in.

Sleepy Robot 13 Interview from zombiesandtoys.com

You can read the full feature here

What were the first creations you made?
"Action figures of my friends. My first detailed creation was an action figure of my best friend Vanessa called the "Napkin Ninja."

Which do you prefer, toast or robots?
"Hmm, that's actually really tough to answer. They are both items that should really not have personalities due to the havoc they could wreak upon the earth... I think that's why I like making them so much! It's definitely a tie."

How did you first get the idea to create zombie toast?
"A friend of mine has toast every morning for breakfast. Wanting to try something different one day, she put a piece of dark rye bread in her toaster. When it came out, the 1st thing that came to mind is that it looked like zombified toast. After that, whenever she made toast I'd ask her if she was making "Zombie Toast". A few weeks later I made my first zombie toast figure and gave it to her as a birthday gift. He still sits in her kitchen to this day."


Most influential zombie moment?
"Dead Alive! Not much beats killing zombies with a lawnmower!"

Favorite zombie book, movie, game?
"Zombie Book: World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks
Movie: Shaun of the dead (I love comedy and I love zombies)
Game: I really liked the Resident Evil games up until the rail shooter..."


If you were bitten, would you want shot or left to change?
"I would change but then I would want to be shot just so I can see what it feels like."

If we were making a toy of you, would you be a zombie or survivor and what accessories would you come with?
"I would be a zombie and my accessories would include a turkey baster, licorice intestines and a clown with no head."

No Comic-con for Sleepy Robot 13

Yesterday I started getting quite a few emails and direct messages on Twitter asking my booth number for this years Comic-con. I'm not sure how the rumor got started, but sadly I will not be at Comic-con this year. I just couldn't afford a booth, maybe next year. I am however 99% sure I will have a booth this November at Designer Con in Pasadena, CA. I want to apologize to everyone who emailed/messaged me that were hoping to check out Sleepy Robot 13 merch at Comic-con.
