Stickers Raise My FUNtelligence Quotient!

I lovelovelove stickers! Especially sparkly ones...

I am fortunate to live near one of the most popular sticker manufacturers in the world...Mrs. Grossman's Sticker Factory in Petaluma, CA.  I decided to visit the facility.  I watched a 20 minute video, did a sticker project, took pictures, bought stickers from their store and chatted with Beau and Kathy.  You can also do the one hour tour.

Mrs. Grossman began her sticker business in 1979 on her dining room table.  The first sticker was the red heart, then variations of the heart in all colors and designs, then over 30 years later the company is continuing to design, manufacture and sell thousands of sticker designs.  Mrs. Grossman still works at the company and has a wonderful loving connection with this FUN business.  Her favorite thing to hear from her employees is. "I love my job!"  And she hears it alot!  Everyone loves bringing joyful and FUN stickers to millions all over the world.

The spacious facility is brightly decorated with large rooms for tour participants, sticker project tables, and a history of ALL the stickers decorates the walls.  Large windows showcase the beautiful Sonoma hills.  The store is filled with thousands of stickers, scrapbooking and cardmaking supplies.  Kathy works in the store and loves organizing and refilling the sticker displays.  Beau, the company dog, wanders around greeting guests! 

It is a FUN place to visit!  I am looking forward to taking my grandson and niece to the factory!  Tours are on the hour and $3 per person.  The store and virtual tour are always available at no charge.  And they give everyone a sticker postcard project for free.  Here is the Schedule.  And you can follow them on TWITTER!  Here are some more FUN pictures!
