I have only been creative journaling and using Happy Planners for less than two years, and I my style and tastes have changed. I have bought several sticker books that I initially thought were cute, but then didn't reach for much over time. When I first started, I only bought Happy Planner sticker books, but once I learned about small shops, I tend to gravitate towards stickers from Live Love Posh, etc. Everyone is different and I appreciate that!
I agree with you, those that you showed I see no reason to use them, because I like nice colors, bright and beautiful not dark and strange designs, I love same stickers and use them all the time. Thanks for sharing keep crafting your ideas are unique
It wasn't negative at all. We all have our favorites and least favorites. Some of your faves are mine too, especially the Paper Raven one. I even like the cat one, and I'm not a cat person. I would love to see you combine a least favorite with a favorite in a spread though. 😊
I just want to say I LOVE your videos and your creativity. However, I also listen to you when I can't sleep because your voice is so soothing, I fall asleep 😊
I haven’t been here long enough to predict what you would choose but I understand what you meant by each one of your choices, both favorite and not so favorite. I am single and I have thought about doing the entire month of February in moody colors to avoid all of the Love Dove stuff. 😂 If I do the Love Dove stuff I am going to do at least one spread with the Love Dove stickers upside down? 😂 I do not know why I think that is funny but I can only handle so much Love Dove stuff? 😬 One more “Be Mine” or “XOXO” sticker and I might lose it? Just kidding! Maybe. 🤔 💕
I love the playful tile book too, it’s probably my top fave. Paper raven and mail call are so pretty too, might have to add those two to the collection.
I'd happily buy the horoscope book from you! Being in Australia makes it hard to get certain books and that one really speaks to me. I've wanted to decorate a weekly spread for each zodiac sign throughout the year but haven't come across any stickers that I like enough to actually do it yet- that book would be perfect!
This was fun. I agreed with some and disagreed with others. I like soft colors and don't gravitate to the bright ones often. But I love your bright spreads.
I think OG Squad Girls is a fave for a lot of people! I think my favorite ever was the original seasonal one. I bought my first HP planner and decorated it with that original seasonal book. I actually used the little ants all over a spread and pranked my husband that we had ants in the house. LOL!
I hope you will do more least favorite sticker book videos because I think that’s as helpful to know as which ones are your favorite. Paper Raven is the only HappyPlanner book that I bought 2 of, so we agree on that. 💛
I can say that I agree with your selections from both lists and have added some of your favorites to my wishlist. I have enjoyed your videos so much I have decided to start my own planning journey. I am currently waiting for my first order from The Happy Planner. SO EXCITED!
I agree with the ones you didn’t like except Beauty in Florals. I love that book. The ones you like that I agreed with are Squad Goals, Meow, Essential Seasons, Paper Raven, Mail Call and Modern Farmhouse. These are beautiful
I found the 10 favorite and least favorite sticker books very interesting! I had the same reaction with the least favorites but had never thought beyond that. I also prefer bright, whimsical, seasonal stickers! You were the 1st RU-vid planner I watched and loved your style. Now I know why. I also love seasonal planners tnat are actually seasonally themed. Thanks for your help making a more creative planner!
I cannot agree more with you on the Pixar book! I mean why didn’t they print them bigger?? I don’t like tiny detailed stickers!!!!😢 i always see the potential of them being bigger and that makes me sad!!
My stash is very small but there are some books I will never buy because they are not my vibe. I ordered the black and white sticker book from Michaels and they sent me the zodiac book by mistake. They sent me the book I ordered and allowed me to keep the zodiac book. It's a book I would never use. I don't have anyone around me that is into stickers but my friend who is into astrology was happy to take it off my hands. Thank God.
I would have added Miss Maker #2 (Miss Maker in the middle!) to the least liked list! I am not crazy for the muted color palette. Love the icons, though! I only bought it because I missed out on much of the first line and I never thought I would see it again!! I am admittedly a bright happy colors gal, also.
I had a feeling playful tile would be on your favorites. I also like the farmhouse one. But there are a few in your least favorites that I actually want to buy now. 😂
I love the beautiful blooms one you showed.. yes it is annoying as every page is clear, no white background to see it.. that is the book I am currently doing a journal page.
I knew Paper Raven Co and a squad goals book would be on your favorites. Was happy to see Playful Tiles there too because it's also one of my faves. I agree completely with you about Seasons of Color being hard to combine into a spread! I like the florals, but I can't make a complete spread with it. And YES!!! Beauty in Florals is so dark! I use the flowers, but nothing else.
I’m with you on Seasons of Color. One of the first florals I bought and after several disastrous spreads have given away a lot of stickers to an elderly friend who loves them! However, I liked the look of Homebody Seasons and I may buy it! 🤭 I also might look at buying the Zodiac book! The favorites I might buy are Out for Adventure, Raven Co, Playful Tiles, Mail Call, and you mentioned Bright Travels. So thanks for adding for books to my ever expanding wishlist! 😂😂😂 I love everything you do and you always make me feel better when I watch. 🌼
Playful Tile is also one my favorites 😍 and for me i think some the big sticker books would be some my favs cuz i love the big big jumbo stickers too lol. I wasn't surprised to see Modern Meow as one you're favs either. I remember you love that sticker book lol .
Good analysis of why you do or don't like a sticker book. Enjoyed this. I do like the deep purple flowers, because I like to change up my color palate. Pink can sneak in there sooo often. It's like this week, no pink. No pink at all.
I SO wish you didn't have to justify that your opinion is different and that is okay. I'm sure people come at you tho and that is so unfair. I've never seen the 2nd one you showed in Favs but I like it. 2 of your Favs are my favs (I love the Paper Raven one so much). I loved the Homebody ones online but when home, not my favs. I've also never seen the Brights from the lesser list but I do like it, and thats okay to have different opinions. I feel that next floral one the designs are pretty but very large. Then that next floral one, the dark one, I have been pairing with lime or bright olive washi and they have turned into some of my favorite spreads lol.
I liked this video. And I didn't feel you were negative at all. I love some of the ones that you didn't but I really appreciated your honest review. I LOVED the seasonal flower one but got so frustrated and couldn't put my finger in why and now I know!!! So it was good.
I have 8 of your top 10 and agreed with those. Squad goals will always be my top book I think! I didn’t buy any of your least fave except seasons of colour and I don’t like it as there isn’t enough of any one design to make a coherent spread. I even bought the large version and regret both purchases! I was surprised the princess elegance wasn’t your least favourite Disney but maybe you were never sent those.
It’s fun seeing everyone different opinions. Some of your choices I agreed with and some I didn’t which is interesting! I love that everyone has a different view on it, at the end of the day it’s art right?
I don’t mind discussing least favorite sticker books at all. I see it as a balance between the favorites and the not so favorites. Totally fine to share our preferences. I don’t see it negatively but can understand how it may fall into the category.
It’s SO refreshing to hear about the ones you don’t like much as well….lol…. it’s nice be exposed to authentic opinions with it NOT being politically relevant lol. I agree with about half of each thing. I think another idea for a video could be “ stickers I’d be willing to pay almost full retail price for” lol. In my five years since I first had a Happy Planner , I think I’ve bought a full price sticker book twice. One of them was called modern year; and it’s still sitting here, unused because I didn’t wanna use up the stickers after paying so much lol
I have a couple from each of your groups - and have very similar feelings about them. I don't have, but would like to have Modern Farmhouse. I think I've looked at that multiple times - now I might have to actually get it.
RIGHT now is the best time to go by them few books you need for your stash! 30%off + 20% sale items and free shipping no minimum!!! So if there’s 1 book you need to order you’ll get free shipping!
I knew Modern Farmhouse would be your top pick! 😀You always compliment the book whenever you use it. I really like your favorite ones - I have a couple myself. I'm thinking I need to add the Paper Raven one. ❤ I can also see why you didn't like your least favorite ones... I probably wouldn't buy them either. Just curious - do you ever destash your least favorite books and use them as patreon giveaways?
I agree with you 100% on the least favorites. I buy most of the HP sticker books, but I didn't buy those for the same reasons you don't like them!!! I too like bright, cute and happy, and I can't stand the realistic flower books. Forced myself to try using one, and hated the spread!! I'd love to see how you would do a spread using some of the darker stickers, but brightening up the spread somehow.
I have to be honest - ever since Happy Planner changed their covers to 85% black and 15% examples of the stickers inside, I’ve hardly bought any. I hate the dark, heavy look of the books, but most importantly, if I can’t glance at the cover and tell what the stickers are like, I skip and move on.
Actually i love some Of your least Favorites .. beautiful blooms, seasons of color, and beauty in florals. I am more a realistic floral girl! Seems you are more doodly! The newest modern farmhouse is on my list .. beautiful book and so different for me. I have a small collection of older books .. personally i am waiting on disability to get anything new! Thats a reason people dont get the newer books too. But i do love you & your channel!
As much as I love stickers, Ive fallen out of love with HP sticker books. They just seem so repetitive. And I wish they would sell those checklist and weirdly shaped stickers separately. The seasonal and floral based books are repetitive as well. I’ve been buying other brands that are cheaper as they have less waste in them. I loved Miss Maker, but I wished that for those of us who don’t sew, that could have been its own book. They need a huge revamp.
