Cottoncandyfriends Review!

Hellllllloooo everyone! This review today is for a very favorite site of mine where I like to get stationary and other wonderful goodies! This is also the site where I got my "Dreamer" camera neck strap for around $10! The thing I love most about this store is how cheap it is. At first it seems like a lot, but it's actually priced in SGD (Singapore Dollars) which is a lot less once you convert it to USD.

As you can clearly see, the wrapping is absolutely precious. The gift wrapping skill is so careful and beautiful and the materials she uses are absolutely perfect. It's cute and has that vintage-esque feel to it and you sort of feel like you just received a care package from a family member from far away. ^^

The Day & Day stamp and sticker set [here] that I bought is absolutely perfect. It has cute little stickers a whole 3 stacks of sheets and the stamps are cute as well. The stamps are of foam-sort of texture rather than the wood ones they like to have on the website but I absolutely looooove them no matter what! This was only $6 USD and that's pretty good for a set like this because stamps 1) aren't cheap and 2) stickers aren't either so this is a double bargain ♡♡

I think my best bargain on this website though were these memo sheets that come with envelopes! They come with 2 sheets and 1 envelope (I don't question it) but they're so cute I could die, they're only $1.21 USD each set and it's perfect for those of you who like to write letters like I do!

The tape is magnificent, like for masking tape it's really beautiful from an art student's perspective. It has a very nice pattern and the quality is fine for masking tape. It's great for scrapbooking and gift wrapping! [here]

I think this is my favorite pen I've used. I bought the Polka-Dotted blue one at first, but the cap cracked due to my carelessness and I eventually lost it with all sadness. The line for this pen is very fine for a ball-point and it's perfect for note taking! I would only take notes with this pen or a Faber Castell Small or Fine tipped marker. Otherwise my notes would have gotten very sloppy and I wouldn't like how they looked. [here]

I bought the 24k Gold Sticker that is rumored to function as an electromagnetic wave filter and it's supposed to be healthy for you since it functions as an anti-radiation sticker. You can stick it on your PC, iPod or even your cellphone! I put it on the back of my cellphone since I use it so much calling people (mostly Martin) but I use my phone. A LOT. [here]

I received these as a gift! I didn't remember ordering them so I kept looking at them funny, but these are so cute! They're little checkpoint stickies or reminder tabs! They're really good for note taking if you're willing to use the cuteness. It's all about the size of 2/3 of a pinky and it's really convenient to keep around in a pencil pouch whenever you're trying to study (especially for you readers that are taking AP exams and marking your books!)

Anywho, this store is amazing if you like your stationary as much as I do. Even if you just collect them since they're pretty and if you're patient enough then you'll find it all worthwhile to get it, they make beautiful gifts!
