I have many pictures and will post them later as my Internet is acting out.
I sold 3 out of 8 (Keiko, Zipporah, silicone cuddle Darren) on the 1st day and none on the 2nd day.
Vendors with clothes and accessories did fantastic!
I was expecting (since everything is so expensive in CA) that people would be willing to spend money, however there were so many new-commers who didn’t know much and came without being ready to pay. All my babies went to well established collectors.
I had fun and made some new friends AND spent time with my California family, so it was all worth it to me! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
I think that show will build the momentum fast.

That is always my regrets after any show. And not taking pictures with everyone that I talk to :frowning:
