    the black sticker that had a pencil on it was actually just like the ornament, a scratching sheet, so you could maybe take a toothpick and scratch it, and then colors come out!❤

    For anyone wanting to make potion charms- baby oil works better than water.. the glitters will be suspended and float around in the oil- won’t sink as much/fast as it does in water… Tip for mess free filling - you can make a funnel out of paper by rolling the paper into a little cone :) or a funnel out of aluminum foil for adding the oil!

    I love how some advent calendar reviewers think stickers are awesome. While on the other side, some despise them. Granted there is a huge difference between sticker sheet, in an art advent calendar that’s under $50 vs. a beauty/health advent calendar that was over $100. It makes me giggle how different similar items can be, and how the calendar’s context matters!

    Amerigrain chiming in about the ruler - we use centimeters! Every ruler I've ever had has both centimeters and inches on it. Inches are more instinctive for us (personally I have a better sense of what an inch is vs a centimeter) but we tend to have everything in inches ALSO be listed in centimeters. So I've always used both :3

What a nightmare to go through years of math failing every class to finally get out of school and be told that the simple things we did learn were all changing and we had a whole new system to learn. Many of us just didn't bother.

    These are amazing, if it weren’t for the extra huge heads that are more reminiscent of modern LPS, it would totally feel like a vintage toy line from the 80s. I was at a toy Collector convention the other weekend and some of us were lamenting that it doesn’t seem like there’s a lot of creativity in toys anymore. This seems like a good jumping point for it.

    15:30 i’m in Amerigrain, and I just wanted to kind of say that I do use a lot of Japanese stationary and have sort of gotten used to trying to switch between centimeters and inches. Mostly because a lot of my rulers are in centimeters. I may not be able to easily convert, but if I’m just measuring things really quick to do crafts, then the actual unit of measure doesn’t matter, just that I’m able to get a measurement. Plus, since I use so much from Japan, or Korea, they’re all in centimeters anyway so it’s easier.

    The ruler would still be useful as a straight edge for folding, drawing lines, making things equal distance apart & so on. So still useful, plus still of course useful for measuring, just have to hit up google for finding out the translation since most of us aren't great at conversion
    (most all of us can do some real general broad strokes conversion 4"=10cm; 1yd=3ft; 0c is freezing, 20c is comfortable, 40c is roasting; that type of stuff. same as the rest of the world can do conversion to what we use.)
