Scratch 'n Sniff Stickers
First to recommend
Description
Back in the late 70's/early 80's, I was the equivalent of a dealer on a street corner with scratch 'n sniff stickers. My fellow 2nd graders would meet me in the hallway before the first bell rang, I would pull out my trusty envelope of 'goods' and the transactions would commence.
Well it's true what they say about addictions running through the gene pool. My daughters both tend to sniff everything with gusto. Mostly things that are ok. We've had the "spray paint can" discussion, don't worry. But we are a family that likes to smell stuff.
And while dealing stickers might put a bit of spare change in my pocket, it isn't my true motivation for trying to bring back the scratch 'n sniff sticker craze. I just really love them to this day. So I pop them on presents, cards, etc whenever I get the chance.
If there are any "recovering sniffers" from the 80's like myself out there, here's a link that made me literally yelp out loud in delight:

"Bubbledog" has an online gallery of all the stickers we knew, loved and smelled from the 80's. Sad to say, but I literally teared up when I saw some of them. Wow did it bring back memories....
And one last link:
http://www.promobrands.com/scratchandsniffscents.htm
Promo Brands carries the world's largest variety of scratch n sniff scents (do the world a favor and avoid the 'baby poo' one please!) and promises that they can give an Eau du Whatever to any product you want. In other words, go to them if you have something you want to smell like something else.

Vintage Coat Rack
5 people recommended this item
Description
First of all, the color of this nearly gave me whiplash. I love it. Absolutely love it. They have additional, equally vibrant hues to choose from too.
And the price? $68. Not bad. Not bad at all.
Maybe you have a corner that needs a splash of color..... or if you entertain frequently, consider picking up one or two to pull out when it's coat season. It would make a colorful towel holder for outside water play and in my case is going to get used in my daughter's bedroom to give her no excuse to leave clothes on the floor. It would also be great as a funky storage solution for cords, crafting supplies and garage accoutrements. What? A garage shouldn't be fun too?
