I am both super glad for you and also so jealous at the same time. God I wish I could've just gone for a hike this morning 🤭

Bologna is a fabulous city to be in! I hope you enjoy JSDay and the delicious food. 😁

Hah, I notice that too. Although it happens less when I speak in my native language. Maybe because I'm more conscious of my word choice in German. 🤔

Unironically pizza. I was the only kid in the entire neighborhood that /detested/ pizza.

Thankfully I came to my senses around age 13. 😌

In the end we managed to generate a whopping 728 EUR from our first effort! 💵

So I'd like to take this as a story. If you have something you want to do, just go and do it. As @levelsio
has said: You Can Just Do Things.

The big day came and we set up a stand at Button Festival!

We were surrounded by so many other lovely artists who welcomed us with open arms ❤️

It was an absolute blast to see people react to the stickers, to chat with them, to just have a good time for two days

A lot of long production days and nights followed. Even the day before the event we were still figuring out a prototype for our booth design at 11pm. 😁

Turns out there are great modular boxes you can buy and configure in literally whatever way you want.

We were ready! 😬

Well, luckily our city happens to have a gaming festival of its own called Button Festival!

Jowi immediately applied for a table and even made a whole presentation for the application..

And she got in! Woo! 🎉 So in the beginning of March, we would go and sell things!

Between January and the beginning of March she produced a total of 1,800 stickers, bookmarks, art prints, pins and keychains.

All of them designed by Jowi and handmade from material you can buy at any stationery shop.

But how to sell that stuff?

I decided to get her an inkjet printer for Christmas and Jowi bought herself a Cricut plotter with her bonus.

Along with some sticker paper, laminating foil and some other misc supplies she now had everything to start producing!

And boy, did she ever produce a lot 🤭

Jowi was immediately inspired!

You can just sell stickers and fanart? 👀 That sounded fun to her. When we got home, she immediately started drawing.

Then she decided she wants to do /everything/ by herself. Art, cutting, laminating, the whole nine yards.
