Sloan here, hijacking the blog to thank everyone who came to our art tables at Ai-kon 2016! Shevi (Dash of Creativity) and I each had our usual tables with our printed artwork, but mom made her Ai-kon debut as Colleen’s Ami Critters and it was a success!

This year was different from our previous Ai-kon experiences, but it was definitely an amazing experience due to the wonderful friends (our “Ai-kon family”) we spent it with, and the personal growth we achieved.

And of course, it wouldn’t have been as successful without support from everybody else, so THANK YOU!!

Whether you bought something from us, or just stopped by to say “Hello”, it made a difference and the three of us are beyond thankful.

You are all amazing and we can’t wait to come back next year!! 🙂

The last year has been rocky for us, but things are looking up and we WILL be opening an online store in August 2016, so please look forward to it!

Just wanted to say thank you to everybody who stopped by to see us at the event this past weekend!  It was great seeing the familiar faces from the previous years, and it is always fun meeting new people.

As the Mom of Sloan and Siobhan, it puts a smile on my face when I see so many people so happy with their purchases from my daughters.  For this event, I was thrilled to see so many smiles when children, teens and adults saw my amigurumi plushies.  It made me happy to know that my little critters were all going to good homes.  Thank you all for supporting all three of us!

For those of you who were asking if we take credit cards at our tables, we have good news for you.  The new online shopping cart has been installed, so now it is just a matter of uploading all of the products (which may take a week or two if all goes well).  We will be accepting PayPal, which allows you to pay with a credit card or debit transactions, depending how you have your PayPal account set up.  I’ve been using PayPal for almost 10 years, and have found it to be a safe and secure method for online payments.

If there were items that you wanted to purchase from Sloan, Siobhan or myself before the store opens, please shoot an email to arti @ arti-bytes.com (with no spaces) and we can see what arrangements can be made.

Thanks again!

Hi! Welcome to the future online store for DesignsBySloan (Sloan), Dash of Creativity (Siobhan or Shevi) and Momma (creator of future handmade plush toys)! We will be selling prints, buttons, stickers, bookmarks, and handmade plush galore~!
…And that’s only what’s certain – who knows what the future has in store? 🙂

Thank you to everybody who has attended Ai-kon and stopped by our booth! We are all quite excited about opening an online store this summer. We’ll have all our old products previously seen at Ai-kon, as well as new products too (such as Momma’s plushies), so please keep an eye out for it!

Thanks again for all the support!!
