Bantammbb Stickers

I've never mentioned it before, but I'm a HUGE sticker nut. Seriously. I have a sticker collection. So, when I saw Bantambb having a sale for her "Oopsies," I had to get in on it. It was a bit of a problem to keep myself in check.

The first time I'd seen her was with this sale, but even full price, her stickers are so incredibly well priced! And I squealed at all of the available fandoms that she has! 

They are paper stickers, so they are a matte finish and not glossy, which is fine for me, but I'd advise that you don't put them anywhere where they are in danger of getting wet.

Most of the stickers are $1.50, but can be more if they are bigger or more elaborate and magnets are $3 unless they are bigger/more elaborate. If you'd like an easy way to see what all she has, her shop is here: Bantambb StoreEnvy. 

You'll notice that her "Oopsies" are... well, not exactly oopsies. The colors are off from what she intended them to be and that's it. I'm more than happy to help her unload her oopsies!

 Here is Marvin from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I also got Ford, Arther, and Iron Man, but they were whisked away by the Fiance. Marvin is considered an 'Oopsie', the Soot Sprites are not. (They're the only ones that aren't Oopsies from this haul.) They're full pigmented and fricken adorable. <3

 Here is Sailor Venus, Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, and The Tenth Doctor in the Tardis.

 Here we have Professer Snape and Mrs. Peacock from Clue. She's actually a Magnet! 

 Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetl- Ah well, we have Barbara and Adam in their spooky alter egos as well as Beetlejuice and Lydia.

If you're a sticker nut like I am, I highly, highly recommend checking out BB. I predict my fridge will be covered in her magnets and my sticker book will be filled with her stickers in good time.

Silliness of Sewing

I had the absolute joy and luck of winning the latest giveaway that Sylvia was holding for her page, Silliness of Sewing!

I have to say, getting products from fellow crafters is always fun, but getting to see how they go about shipping is fascinating! I absolutely love how we each individualize our styles and make it fun for our customers to open their packages!

Upon opening the box, I was immediately attacked... in a good way. There is nothing more fun than popping the tape and watching the flaps on the box pop open and having your items burst through to greet you. 

Note: This generally only happens with packing fluff or items stuffed with fluff as is this case here. No danger of real damage to you or your items.

What I won was a Mario Stocking and as you can see, there's more than that in the box! To say that I was excited is a wee bit of an understatement. Pulling the items out of the box, I found not only the stocking, but TWO of the darling pillows that she makes!

I'd had a brief conversation with Sylvia before she shipped it and she asked me what my/my fiance's favorite Mario characters were. When I said Toad and Mario (to which she giggled in a most suspicious fashion), I expected something small that added Toad into the package, like a sticker. I did not expect two full pillows!

Honestly, I truly can't express how blown away I am by her generosity! Thank you so much, Sylvia, that was absolutely above and beyond and I'm incredibly thankful! These pillows will be dearly loved!

With the items, there was a small envelope that had an adorable Mario card with a sweet message! Jesse and I will most definitely pillow fight to the death! Or not, because I'll probably squirrel them away and give him a death glare if he tries to hurt my new pillows! 

The stocking fits right at home on our wall and will most definitely stay there year round. The pillows are resting on my bed at this moment and they have cuddle time in their future! (They're so soft!)

If you're not familiar with Sylvia's shop, I HIGHLY recommend it! She's such a sweet person and her products are so delightful and fun!
