Sticky Kit March 2018 Review
Set of 2 Long Note Papers
In addition to including several sheets of stickers each month, Sticky Kit always tosses in a non-sticker stationery item. They always come in such interesting shapes and sizes, and from my experience are never boring or basic. This month, it's these two long sheets of paper decorated with...actually I'm not sure what! It looks like a purse, a small vase, a perfume bottle, and some other decorative container of sorts. These two lightweight pieces of paper would be perfect for making grocery lists, to-do lists, or any other sort of task notation!
Pastel Petal Stickers
These single petal stickers are so pretty! They're somehow both pastel-y and bright, and they have a watercolor-ish vibe to them. I feel like a single petal from this sheet, out of context, would look kind of like a random little color blob, so these would be good to stick to something in clusters. They'd be a pretty way to spiff up scrapbook pages!
Teddy Bear and Friends Stickers
I wish I knew where this crown-wearing teddy bear character was from! I tried looking up "Cocoa the Teddy Bear" online and only came up with chocolate, bear-shaped cookie recipes (they look so good!). I love the things the teddy on this sticker sheet is doing: conducting chirping birds with a branch, giving butterfly kisses to a hedgehog, balancing an apple on his head, and more. The bear's little critter friends are so cute, too! There's a lot of sharing of fruits going on, which is too adorable to handle. I'm going to have a hard time using these stickers on anything—I kind of just want to keep them all together to look at them when I need a smile!
Esther Molina x Sticky Kit Sakura Tree Stickers - Retail Value $2.60
There aren't a ton of stickers on this watercolor sheet, but the fact that most of them are pretty big makes up for it in my eyes. I can see these pretty flowering trees and branches being used as decoration on the back of your phone or cover of your laptop. You could also use one on the cover of a homemade card. There are some little flowers and green bird stickers scattered throughout to go with the flowering trees, too. The whole set is so lovely!
Bouquets and Hummingbirds Stickers
My initial reaction to these flower arrangement stickers is that they're a little old lady-ish. Maybe a nicer way of wording it would be vintage-inspired! The hummingbirds are really pretty, but the flowers themselves feel a little unoriginal to me. That said, it's harmless to put pretty flower stickers on a piece of mail to a friend, so these will definitely go to good use despite them not being my favorites!
Scenic Stamps Stickers
This sheet features really detailed vignettes and scenes. They're so pretty! The stickers are shaped like stamps, though of course, they aren't real stamps that you can use on mail. Each sticker is practically like a shrunken version of postcard art, and would look pretty among the pages of a travel photo album or scrapbook!
Set of 40 Individual Flower Stickers
Sticky Kit also usually includes a set of sticker flakes, which are individual stickers instead of coming on a sheet. This set includes 40 clusters of flowers. I only counted 36 (shown in the image above) in my packet, but a few must have stuck together as I was spreading them out!
Verdict: Clearly spring has sprung in Sticky Kit land! With a variety of mostly-floral stickers this month, I'm feeling excited to spread the warm-weather vibes on my mail, notes, and more! This sub costs $14.99 ($12.99 a month + $2 shipping), and I received 5 sheets of stickers, one pack of 40 single stickers, and 2 little sheets of long paper.
