Welcome to the School Stickers blog if you’re new and, if you’re not, then hello it’s nice to see you again!
Did you know: stickers began with revenue and tax stamps which were used as early as the mid 1700s to collect tax or other fees on certain items. Then stickers appeared a little later on in the form of postage stamps…you know the ones you had to lick to stick? Stickers have come a long way since then, we don’t recommend licking ours, they don’t taste great.
We love a good fact at School Stickers so today we have 5 snippets of information that you might not know about us.
1. Did you know we have a page of free printable charts, puzzles and games for you to download? We’ve got eight you can download at the moment including Aeroplane Bingo, Summer Holiday Postcards and Coin Counting Exercises.
2. We’re the only sticker company to have a unique Sticker Maker which allows you to design your own custom stickers and button badges, adding any images and text you’d like for no extra charge. You design it, we’ll print it and send your items straight to your school or front door ready to be handed out to your pupils.
3. Our Customised Button Badges are all made here on site in the School Stickers office by Beth and Dave. You can read about how they’re made here if you like. We currently have a grand total of 52 designs on the site for you to pick from but remember you create your own designs using our custom tool or you can give s a ring on 088 988 0550 and we’ll do our best to create what you’re looking for.
