WELCOME TO JANUARY PROJECT!
JANUARY PROJECT IS OVER!
yes, i am starting january project a little on the late side—photobucket was doing its thing again and i was unable to access my photos or upload new ones, which is 2/3 of the reason i haven’t been reviewing much here recently and am now woefully behind in all of my reviews and projects and all of it. but now it’s back, so I’M back, with a 12-day project using this book made up of two things my 8-year-old self would’ve gone nutso for: unicorns and stickers. i’m not going to bother being coy about before-and-after images and spoiler tags because this is a celebration of YOOOOONICORNS, and also of my ability to match up stickers with their corresponding numbers and adhere them with surgical precision. I AM A STICKER GOD! so—enjoy half a month of unicorns.

JANUARY 22 SPARKLING STUNNER take 2
today begins with an apology. blinded by the majesty of unicorns AND the blurry-squinty aftereffects of matching tiny stickers with tiny numbered chalk-outlines, i mistakenly reported that yesterday’s unicorn was called SPARKLING STUNNER. which any fool can see is incorrect—that is clearly STARLIGHT STALLION, and THIS:
is truly SPARKLING STUNNER. my apologies to the unicorns and their families for such an amateur mistake.

MAJESTIC FRIENDS
i’ve just looked down and realized i am typing this wearing fingerless neon yellow fishnet gloves while reviewing what is basically a lisa frank stickerbook, and my first instinct upon seeing the title of this one was to sing it to the tune of Electric Youth.
somewhere along the way i forgot to grow up.
