The stationery survey is now closed and I’ve been analysing the results. Thanks everyone who added their thoughts – it’s all been really useful. Here’s a few things I learned.
Most Wanted
The products you want to see happening first are letter sets and sticky notes. so you’ll be glad to hear I have FOUR new sticky notes pads being test printed right now! Also popular were stickers, large and spiral notepads and sticky tape so I’ll be considering more of those too.
Favourite Characters
You were no help at all with this as you seem to love them all! Which is obviously lovely to hear. Look Around, Cakeify & Friends, Bunny & Panda and the new fruit and vegetable characters (now officially titled 5 A Day) got the most namechecks though.
Giveaway Prizes
Cushion/Pillow and tote bags were the clear winners here, so I will plan something fun soon.
Other products you want to see
Already in my shop
– Small notepads
– Pencil cases
– Magnetic fridge lists/pads
– Origami paper
I may make more designs of these, but only if people keep buying them!
Already available on-demand
– T-shirts
– Tote bags (Zazzle / Society6)
– Wall decals
– Pillow cases (can be ordered individually)
– iPod Touch/iPhone 5 cases
I’ll be adding more designs for all of these. If there’s any characters you want to see, let me know.
In planning
– Calendar insert for day planners
– Bookmarks
– Stationery sets
– Folders / Ring binders
– Daily undated planner
– Papercraft
– Pocket Mirrors
Some of these products can be added on-demand and others are already on my new product ideas list, so look out for them sometime in the next year.
Unlikely
– Erasers
– Washi tape
– Plastic beakers
– Pencils
– Plush toys
– Socks
– Bento boxes
– Photo frames
– Rubber stamps
These all sound amazing but most are out of my league financially. Maybe I’ll find someone to license my designs to, or they’ll be added as on-demand products. If you really want to see something, try suggesting it to Zazzle.
Winners and comments
I’ve picked two winners, so check your inboxes! You also left lots of kind comments (thank you!) and a few questions, which I’ll answer soon.
Thanks again for all your help – I hope you love the new products.
