[Artist Alley] Looking for artist alley/vendor feedback

I’m currently looking for a bag to carry important items to artist alleys/events. Not for the actual merch.

What’s the most annoying thing about carrying your supplies to/from events?
What do you wish your current bag had?
What items are always awkward to organize or access?
What do you end up carrying separately because your bag just doesn’t work for it?

I’d really appreciate any suggestions!

Looking for artist alley/vendor feedback! 🎨

I’m currently developing a dedicated artist/event supply bag designed around the stuff artists, crafters, and vendors actually need to carry to conventions and events.
Before I finalize the design, I’d love to hear from people who do artist alleys, craft fairs, conventions, etc.:

I’m especially interested in the pain points—even the little annoyances you’ve gotten used to.
I’d really appreciate any feedback! 🙏 I want to make something that solves an actual problem rather than just making another generic tote/bag.

Designing an ita bag insert for pins + keychains — thoughts?

I’ve been working on my own ita bag insert and wanted to get some feedback from other collectors before I make my next prototype!
The goal is to make it easier to display both pins and acrylic keychains in one insert. It’s currently 10” × 8” with different elastic loops for attaching charms/keychains.
This is my first prototype, so I’d love to hear what you think or what you’d change! What features would you want in an ita bag insert?
