Review on Craft Explorer + Special Treat for Readers!

Craft Explorer, a new online store that I came across while on Facebook. I was drawn by their very attractive and reasonable prices for things crafty and more recently, their new inventory on Frozen items. Yes, I fell 'victim' to the Frozen movie spin-off items as my gals were enamored with the movie. Its also hard to resist when the prices were great and there were just so many different items!



Firstly, let me state that this post is in part sponsored in kind by Craft Explorer who had sent me some items to review. These items are puffy stickers, mini note pads and a page marker. You can see the items as shown below.

 
 
Apart from the sponsored items, I bought also the following
Frozen notebook with a pen attached. These are good for them to use in school, small yet functional.
Bought Elsa and Anna respectively for my 2 gals.
 
 
Bought the pink and the blue one each. There are 8 colors on each pen.
 
 
These were a fantastic deal at only $9.90 per set, you get a functional watch and a wallet!
My gals couldn't wait to use them in school! There are a total of 4 different designs
 

Bought these for them to wear at night. There were 2 sizes for you to choose from.
 Sleeping in aircon room meant their feet will get cold so I made them wear socks to sleep :)
 

A set of this after much begging as it seems the current craze were scent infused pens and these are fruit scent infused.
 
 
A set of these badges for them to decorate their bags.
 
 
Last but not least, stickers! These are only $0.30 a sheet, such attractive price!
 
 
So, how did I use the items that I was given for review? I love love love the puffy stickers! They send me right back to my childhood! I used them in my planner and calendar, un-bashfully :P  Totally in love with the heart stickers as they are so versatile! The alphas were used to decorate the front of my planner and the expressions on Tweety bird were so good to use on expressing the day's events! I have yet to get to the Pokemon stickers as yet but probably will use them the same way as Tweety as the expressions were so apt :) Some examples of how the stickers were used...


 
 
The page marker was a godsend for my planner as now I can go straight to the page that I am on instead of having to flip through previous entries. Its not bulky and it fitted the corner easily. I actually inserted all the pages behind into the slot, making it neater. With a price tag at only $1.00, its a good deal for kids and adults alike! There are 4 colors to choose from :)


 
 
The adorable notepads were used to highlight my actual blogpost topic. I used washi tapes to secure the top so that I can flip below to see my brainstormed train of thought for that particular post. Makes for an easier way of referencing :) There are so many different designs and all are so adorable!
 

 
 
Overall the stickers, notepads and page marker were all put to good use with some creative thinking. Never say that stickers are just for kids. I love how my planner and calendar look  after I have used the stickers as they are now so brightly colored and cheerful looking :) It makes for a trip down memory lane too!
 
Craft Explorer is by a pair of friendly sisters who love crafting and cute stationery items. They have many other stationery items on their Facebook page that will make you grin as it brings you back to being a child again :) I particularly liked their index stickers as they are both cute and functional!
