I saw
Miss Kika posting about 1990's stickers and using them to decorate the guestbook for her wedding. It made me nostalgic and reminded me that I STILL have my childhood sticker albums, in fact I was usually very wary about using my stickers and liked to keep at least one sheet un-used, or carefully store them in the album.
I am still like this... I have hundreds of untouched, sealed sticker sheets... and when something catches my eye, I buy it, even if I know it is likely I will never use it. Every couple of months I take them out, look at them, and sigh at their prettiness.

My Mrs. Grossman sticker album. |

They don't make them like this anymore, the surface would keep the stickiness of the stickers very well, so you could move them around and reuse them many times. |
|
I organized all the hearts cuz I liked them too much to use them on stuff... or never had a Valentine? |
|
The page on the left is missing many flowers and butterflies I actually used. |
|
Another set of pages I haven't taken anything out of. |
|
Cats, birthday cakes and Santa Claus. |
|
It was nice how the stickers were so precisely cut you could make scenes of the little animals holding things. |
|
These two pages are supposed to be a Zoo! |
|
A beach scene. |
|
A picnic scene and a collection of holographic stickers. Holographics were highly coveted when trading stickers with other girls. |
|
The beginning of my band-aid collection... |
|
This page has ONLY fuzzy stickers! |
|
These were postcard sheets that came with the sticker book, I still have 2 blank ones! |
|
A more recent sticker book, unfortunately, anything I stuck in here would be damaged when I tried to take it back out :( |

Band-aid collection part 3. |

Disney Princess band-aid collection. |
I usually buy any band-aids that have cute designs to put in my collection. I try to get at least one of each for the album and keep the rest to use them.
This is only a third of my sticker collection... I also collect cute stationary, and cute pencils... maybe I'll show you some other time?
I remember the sticker books back in the day as a kid. I think I had the one for Voltron, but not any more. ummm - hopefully they aren't 'used' band aids - ewwwwww!
