Review - Etsy Shop: Sweet Bean Plans



I have never reviewed an Etsy shop before but when I came across this little shop, I just couldn't help myself. I love everything about this shop and I wanted to share it with others.

The name of the shop is Sweet Bean Plans and the shop specializes in original planner stickers that are just so Kawaii (cute) and adorable for words to even describe them. They are based in the US but they ship internationally and if you don't see a sticker design that you personally would like then the shop also does custom orders, which is just awesome.

Anyway I discovered this shop about a month ago when I decided to start getting into decorating my planner as I had watched a few videos of others doing so on YouTube. So I decide to browse Etsy until I came across this new store that hadn't been on the site very long, so I decided to see if I could help them out. As I looked through what the shop offered, I found myself wanting everything! Every sticker was just so cute and felt so personally made that I couldn't decide on which ones to get. But after looking for about an hour, no joke here folks, I literally spent an hour trying to decide on planner stickers lol; I finally narrowed my choices down to seven; which I will list below along with the quantity and the price of the stickers.

1. Tiny Water Bottles/Workout Stickers - 100+ Stickers for $3.50
2. Pencil and Paper Kawaii Stickers - 80 Stickers for $3.00
3. Tiny Colorful Kawaii Cell Phone Stickers - 80 Stickers for $3.00
4. Colorful Dog Paws Stickers - 72 Stickers for $3.00
5. Reading/Book Dots Stickers - 78 Stickers for $3.00
6. Colorful Yoga/Stretching Exercise Stickers - 60+ Stickers for $3.50
7. Tiny Kawaii Scales/Weight Loss Stickers - 54 Stickers for $3.50
**The names of the stickers are how they are listed on the shop as well as the quantities and the prices.

Out of all the shops that I browsed through, this is one store that caught my complete attention and I cannot wait to order more from her.

The pricing is perfect for the quantity that you get and the quality of the stickers are amazing. I found out that every sticker is designed by her completely as she draws them out by hand. I absolutely find that amazing for someone to be able to design to many cute things. And here is the best part, her store is always updating! Everyday it seems like she adds more stickers to her shop, which makes me even more excited knowing that holidays are going to be arriving soon, which means holiday themed stickers for Halloween and Christmas. I can't wait to see what she creates.

I also have to commend the shop on how fast they ship orders out as well as how cutely they are packaged. When my first order arrived, it was only a few days after I had placed my order which impressed me for sure. I was also awed at how cutely the stickers were packaged inside the shipping envelope. She had placed them in a colorful bag and closed it with a tiny amount of Washi tape to keep it closed. Not only did I get my order but I also received a couple of sample stickers as well which only made me want to go back and buy more.

I can tell that she really loves what she does and now that I follow her on Instagram, I get to have sneak-peeks of any upcoming stickers as well as notice of any sales that she has going on. And her sales, they are amazing. Her most recent one, which is going on until the end of this week 8/29/2015 I believe, is 25% off of $20! I can't believe what good sales she has and I can't wait to get in on them myself. But I am waiting until I request from custom designs from her, which she does take for the price of $3.50 I do believe.

Now I want to go ahead and place a disclaimer here before I end this review. I do not know the owner personally at all, nor am I getting paid to do this review. I just wanted to be able to help her business grow because I feel that she deserves it as I can see her hard work through her stickers and shop. She doesn't even know that I'm doing this review and won't know until I post this on my social media; so I hope she doesn't mind but I just can't keep the greatness of this shop to myself. I want this shop to be successful for her so that she can keep doing what she obviously loves. And yes before anyone asks, I purchased all the stickers that I listed above with my own money, except for the two sample stickers that she sent; which I believe she does with every order but I am not sure. I will also be making another purchase from this shop so I will be doing another review on how much I like the custom stickers, which I already know I will if any of her other designs have to say for her talent.

Also for those interested here is the link to her Etsy shop as well as her Instagram name. I urge everyone to check her out!
