Reuse stickers and DIY Post-it Notes

I think a lot of mummies (as in mother not the bandage monster) and teachers are going to love this post.

Hehehe.

In this post, I'm going to share with you the tips for reusing stickers and make post-it notes yourself!

Yes! Feeling excited already?
Here goes.






This is Piglet..


I mean sticker with piglet's face on.




Stick it on any paper, try to scrap it off...
Then this is what you get.

Ugly sticker + Ugly paper

So what you can do is...

Take any of your cream or lubricant
(oil-based please *cough*)

Example Vaseline, Nivea or Dove?

Scrap a little (teardrop size)
and spread it evenly at the back of the sticker.


Stick them on any paper and try to remove it.

See!

* Ta da *

Just like magic!
I tell you, no trace left behind!

With this method, you can keep reusing your stickers!

I think all mothers are damn happy now knowing they don't have to worry about the hideous "left-over" stickers on the book, cupboard and shelves.

Just that... now they have to stock up the creams.

If you think after applying the cream the sticker is not as "sticky" as before, see this.


I assure you, it still sticks like before and its not going to fall off easily.


p/s: Stickers are teachers' best friends. Do not underestimate the power of a sticker. It can keep the naughtiest and loudest kid quiet and finish off their work just for a sticker!


Next.

How to make your very own post-it notes?


Just take out any of your

Get the double-tape

Stick 'em at the back of the paper

Remove the paper

Again, apply cream or lubricant on it

There, your very own post-it note!

No more cellotape on paper notes leaving ugly traces behind.
=)



Note: It wasn't me who "invented" this. I got the tip from "Good Idea" and decided to share it with you all

This is the best tips I got this year - you have no idea how sticker mad they are and their tables and cabinets are full of stickers and ugly scraped off stickers (our walls are spared and thats ONLY because I ban stickers from the walls!)

Thank you!!!

p/s Now what about some tips for scribbling on the walls? - also banned but gone on deaf ears.

erm ..use oil-based paint on walls?

Wow I've never knew petroleum-based creams/lubricants can be so darn useful! Initially I thought that the cream will cause the sticker to slide off the adhered surface, but I experimented it with a stick at home and it really works!

Thank you soooo much for sharing this extremely useful tip! Now people no longer have to worry about stubborn sticks, and can make DIY post-it notes too! No more nasty cellophane tapes and blue-tacs!

Helpful tips. Can save all those classic sticker that I used to stick on the way without destroying them by tearing away. If..if only I've known this earlier would have I saved those classic sticker like 'Thundercats'.
