So, I have attended comic con every year that it has been in Ottawa. I look forward to it every year, and it becomes one of the highlights of each year.
One of my favourite parts is definitely getting to see some of my favourite stars, even if just for one short minute. They are always all so sweet. Two years ago my friends and I went up to a few to ask for hugs because we didn't have much money left [ or to begin with, seeing as we were still in high school and didn't have a job ] and couldn't afford a photo or an autograph. Much to our delight, Ross Mullan was more than happy to [ and even offered ] to take a photo with us !

Comic con provides such a great opportunity for vendors, especially those that don't have a physical shop [ like an etsy shop ] . It allow them to show off their products and broaden their customer range.
My favourite stands are the ones that are unique and have items you can't get anywhere else. This year my favourites were elf ears and fairy bell necklaces from Arcane Angel Creations as well as wands from Wizard Craft Academy .
One of my other favourites is Moon Glow, they usually have a stand and sell items at a reduced price, but their products are stunning! They have a photo of the moon from every night of the year and make them in to pieces of jewellery [ check them out here! ].
This year it was super sweet, there was someone dressed up as Toothless [ from How To Train Your Dragon ] and while the smaller kids were extremely excited to see him, they were also a bit scared to approach him. It was cute to see. There was also someone dressed as Hero, the kids weren't as scared to see him, but just as excited.
Every one is always happy around comic con season, these conventions really bring people together.
What's your favourite place to shop for unique items ?
