Hello!

It's time to celebrate our love of stickers and create a story!

Did you know?

National Sticker Day is a day to celebrate all things related to stickers, from the custom made to the everyday label. Every sticker has a story. They can be used for decoration or information depending on the situation. They can come in many different shapes, sizes and colors and can be used on a variety of things for example lunch boxes, in paper planners, lockers or notebooks.

History of National Sticker Day

European merchants in the 1880’s were some of the first people to stick labels to their products in an effort to promote their goods and wares to passers by. Originally they would use gum paste to get the labels to adhere and stick: hence the name "stickers."

National Sticker Day is celebrated on January 13 in honor of R. Stanton Avery's birthday in 1907. It was Avery who invented the modern sticker version in 1935, launching a new company and a industry, which is fairly impressive considering he wasn’t even 30 years old yet! information from: daysoftheyear.com
