    Stickers are everywhere: on laptops, phones, water bottles, backpacks, and cars. But how do you get started creating and selling them? Should you print them yourself or have a company fulfill the orders? Find out how to start designing, marketing, and selling stickers with Missy Walko, designer of the Etsy shop, From Flannel to Lace.
    
    We’ll cover:
    
    Why stickers?
    
    Software requirements
    
    How to choose a print and selling vendor
    
    Paper and print quality: how to balance price and quality with consumer expectations
    
    Where to look for trends
    
    Missy will walk us through her process, her observations, and her preferred practices. After her presentation, we’ll have a conversation about the wide world of stickers, and take questions from the audience.
    
    About Our Presenter:
    
    Missy Walko currently resides in Akron, Ohio with her motorcycle enthusiast boyfriend and two treat-obsessed tiny dogs: Daisy (a rescued Yorkie), and Pixel (a tiny black mutt). When she isn’t doing corporate design, freelance design, or putting stickers on things, you’ll likely find Missy traveling across town to try a new coffee shop.
    
    If you like photography and short stories, follow her on Instagram at @FromFlannelToLace. If you prefer design banter, she’s @Flanneltolace on Twitter. To see her stickers, find her on Etsy at etsy.com/shop/FromFlannelToLace.
