Thank you very much for the Adobe code! I literally saw the listing at 3:30 on Monday and I couldn’t believe that I could still register for it. So I got ready in 20 minutes and was out the door. Luckily I live in the city so it didn’t take that long to get to. It was interesting to see his early drafts and hear about how he got started. I can’t believe how many different product lines he has! Simone was very down to earth and humble which is very cool!

Thanks a
million to Stephanie for hooking us all up…he’s a great speaker and so adorable, I wish he’d make a plushie of himself. (-: I saw a bunch of people taking photos and I hope they’ll post them…he showed some previews of the new shirts/prints/toys, but sometimes clicked through so fast it was hard to see. Here’s a link to some photos I took @ the end, will post the presentation ones w/comments when I’m back later this week. Enjoy!!

I’m glad to hear you guys had such a wonderful time! I wish I could have been there! I live near Fresno, and have two little girls and wanted to go so bad… and the drive would just make it too long of a day for me because I would have to leave the girls with my husband and come alone . Hopefully he comes back around and I can make plans to ditch the kiddos with grandma and make it a mini vacation. I would love to meet other addicts because no one here even knows what Tokidoki isl! They just think I’m crazy- they don’t believe there are more like me!

Yes, it was fabulous! I had a blast! I brought my dad who had absolutely no idea about Simone and Tokidoki, but he ended up having a great time… due in large part to Simone’s kind and gracious nature. Simone had endless patience, posed for scads of photos with everyone who wanted one, signed and drew characters for all, and stayed after his session until every last person had a chance for photos, signings, and a little conversation as well. His session was so interesting- he talked about his background, how he developed the tokidoki brand and how he uses technology. Then after the session, Dad and I hit the massive cocktail party and had wine, great food and made a bunch of new friends.
One of the most fun things for me was meeting some of the other tokidoki fans from this blog- Hi Elisabetta! Hi Ricegirl! And hi to all the other nice people I met today. I’m hoping that one of you will post some photos as I’m a bit technologically challenged.
Thank you Stephanie, for posting this event with complimentary registration. It was such a terrific day and will be a wonderful memory! I only wish you ALL could have been there.
