80s Child
Earlier this month Etsy published a cute article about sticker collections, and it inspired me to dig out my old sticker book and have a nostalgic flick through it...

WOW I had that sticker album too! Must come from also being an eighties child. The furry teddy bear ones with the little red hearts have brought 1993 rushing back.
ReplyDeleteI hope I still kept hold of it like you. Those stickers should be used!
So cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the owls!
My little boy is also exited about stickers and I have to hide them if I want to keep them!
Oh wow, such an 80s thing! I had dozens of sticker books but I was the kind of kid who kept stuff for best so loads were never used (I'm still a bit like that with pretty notebooks!)
ReplyDeleteI remember having one of these. I don't know what happened to it. I used to buy the stickers from the local toy shop. I vividly remember those fuzzy teddy bear ones.
ReplyDeletehow lovely, i had a sticker book too and collected erasers too. Oooh that has bought back many happy childhood memories - thanks :-)
ReplyDeleteThis brought memories flooding back for me too! I had the little kittens.. and maybe the teddies too as they look familiar. You know, they still make these stickers, I saw the exact same kitten stickers in a toy/stationery shop a few months ago!
ReplyDeleteWhat!? No garbage pal kids - I collected those cards and stickers :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - those fuzzy teddies. I LOVED them. I don't think I even took them out of their packet. Thanks for the total flashback. Seems like those little bears might be shaping up to be the poster-children of 80s stickers!
ReplyDeleteI had those pink piggies! So cute!
ReplyDeleteI wish I still had my sticker album. My favorites were the "puffy" stickers.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it's brought back some memories! I vividly remember where I bought lots of these, and which ones I treasured (those heart teddies were definitely never going to be swapped!).
ReplyDeleteI've got my eraser collection in a box somewhere, too... I'm such a hoarder! :D
Ahh love it!!
ReplyDeleteI had those same cat stickers in the 1 photo!!
I remember getting the books with the waxed pages because I was so worried about wasting the stickers and never being to find the same ones!
You've inspired me to dig out mine!
