Animate! Miami Anime Convention 2014

♥ Animate! Miami Anime Convention 2014 ♥

Happy New year everyone! I haven’t update this blog for few months, because I was busy preparing my first ever convention, attending Animate!Miami anime convention.

It’s a smaller convention compare to others. 2013 only had about 5000 attendees but report said this year they have about 10,000 attendees! Wow, I was happy to know that. Hopefully next year they will grow into bigger convention!

Anyway, I want to post lots of pictures here to show you. I didn’t take a lot of pictures because we were busy meeting new people and working. 😛 Me and my friend cosplay during convention. It was fun! I enjoyed a lot and hopefully we can go to conventions to sell things together.

We were there the day before the convention to set up the booth. We had NO idea what to setup or how to make our booth look nicer, but we did a fantastic job, isn’t? 🙂

Cute unicorn next to our booth, an excellent icon for convention! I’m considering to make one, this is TOO cute <3

Taking few pictures with my cute alpacasso! It was cold so earmuffs are PERFECT! 😀

Of course the fun part is when we cosplay ^^ Here are few cosplay pictures for your to enjoy 😀

These are gift from the vendor next to us. I was told that they were very excited because they saw my store name. I found out that they’re my Facebook followers!!! OH MY! Such as small world isn’t it? 🙂 I LOVE these cute pins, they even gave me an alpacasso one! I was wearing it during the whole convention, I LOVE IT 🙂 Thank you thank you!

Here is my Junko Enoshima cosplay!

I made the little bird (On top of my head), it was a hit! A lot of people buy them, I’m very happy ^^

I took it while I had a little time. This cute mint flavor bear was sold to a lovely girl. She bought 3 of my amigurumi, I was like :O I am SO happy that someone liked my work! ♥

She’s ordering a custom made Usagi & Hitsuji (Karneval) from me!!! OMG! 😀 I’m working on it atm and will post WIP in here shortly.

This is Sushi Monster, she’s the guest cosplayer from the convention. She’s very pretty and skinny O__O oh my goodness, I wish I am THAT skinny >_< She bought a pink alpacasso from me, I was shy to ask her for picture but I took courage and ran to her for picture. She’s very friendly <3

One of the feature item from my shop of 2014 is Korean handmade Clay watch! These babies are hot sale items in convention. Good results! I think I’m going to carry this item from now on in my shop. If you’re interested, you can visit my shop. ^^

Little snack for hardworking ladies <3 <3 Mr.Baird’s Gaijin Taiyaki was DELICIOUS! I don’t like chocolate BUT this chocolate toffeetaste great! I think I can eat that again and again 😛 LOL!

This is taken at the first day of the convention by our friend Paul, from ManStudio Photography. Check out his facebook page, he’s an amazing photographer! Very nice guy! 😀

I thought would be fun to make a photo collage 😀 I had a best time ever selling at the convention. Not because it’s a business but I got a chance to meet new people, making new friends…oh and of course, lots of pictures!! xD

This is my favorite picture, kissing my tissue box alpacasso ^^ She’s available for adoption, man, this alpacasso wants to work for you ^___^ Who wants to adopt her, hehehe.

I want to thank my friend’s support during our short 3 day convention. Without their help, I won’t survive 🙁 They are AMAZING ladies and I LOVE THEM! I’m still looking for an open spot for our dinner date ladies *wink wink* :3

My next possible convention is Hurricon in April. I hope to have enough time to reveal new items. I will post in here as time progresses. OH OH, if you’re going to Megacon in March, please let me know so we can have pictures together! ^__^
