simple smocking stickers…a giveaway

I’m too generous sometimes aren’t I!!! I just love sharing the love and have a new gadget to show you all…smocking stickers out of Japan. I’ve been eyeing these off in my japanese craft magazines but hadn’t found them in the shops so whats a girl to do but stock it in her own shop!

Single Cable Smocking Stickers

You simply stick the stickers over the area you want to smock and you follow the numbers! How easy is that. Bring your needle up and down at each number, when you’re done you remove the stickers and you’ve smocked!!!! Each pack contains 2 sheets of 5-10 rows of stickers and I’m imagining sweet dresses, tunic tops, little purses, bags…..oh I could keep going.

Honeycomb Smocking Stickers

I’m also waiting for yo-yo makers to be back in stock, should be in a fortnight buy I did manage to get some heart shaped ones….

  1. OMGoodness, I had no idea what smocking stickers were when you mentioned them yesterday I thought they were something that smockers knew about IYKWIM!
    Can’t wait to see what you make with them!

  2. Those stickers look amazing! I’ve never been brave enough to tackle smocking before but those might just give me an idea of what I’m doing!

  3. I would love to be able to smock so easily!! Thanks for sharing

  4. What a fanastic idea! And yes, you are too generous x

  5. Smocking has always looked so difficult – not anymore thought! Can’t wait to see what you do with them. Cheers.

  6. wow, what a fantastic idea

    haven’t tried smocking yet, but I would love to

  7. OOhhh yes please! NO pleating!! I love smocking. Haven’t smocked anything for the last baby…..yet! Thanks Corrie xox

  8. wow what a great idea!!!

    would love to try it

    good luck everyone :)

  9. I love smocking and even own a pleater. I swear by the Country Bumpkin magazines and books for how-to’s but these stickers look like they could really be fabulous for beginners.

    Now I just have to work on getting myself a little girl of my own to smock for. Luckily I have plenty of friends with girls who happily accept any girly sewing therapy I manage to finish.

  10. They look like lots of fun! I used to do a little smocking with the machine thing to pleat it but this looks so much easier!

  11. Looks fun and easy! Thanks for the giveaway!

  12. Wow, what a fantastic idea! I’ve been wanting to try smocking for awhile now, but it just looks a bit too involved just now – I think these stickers would be a great way to give it a go. I too have a yo-yo obsession lately, I’m addicted to both the flower and heart shape ones now.

  13. That is a great idea! – I had not realised how easy smocking could be. I would love to give that a try. :)

  14. Those look like something I would like to try! Will be interesting to see what you make!

  15. Had no idea these even existed. I would love to be able to smock (an art my gran used to oversupply :) )

  16. What a great idea – would love to give them a try, thanks!

  17. That looks great, I’ve wanted to try smocking for ages, it’s so pretty!

  18. Wow, they are clever. Would love to try also!
    Thank you Corrie for your generosity.

  19. What a wonderful idea, and a very generous giveaway :)

  20. I have never seen them before but they sound just perfect for someone like me who would love to smock but have no idea where to begin!

  21. What a fab innovation- I had no idea smocking stickers even existed.

  22. Oh wow – so much cute and great things come out of Japan – they look great:)

  23. NO WAY – that’s a fantastic idea! Traditional is just too much trouble (BTDT in the past with the pleating machine) so I don’t bother anymore. That is just fabulous – what a great giveaway.
    Thanks Corrie :)

  24. I will see if I am lucky a 2nd time and what a fabulous invention!

  25. What a great idea. It’s years since I did any smocking. It was probably for my niece who slots in between #2 and #3 son of my own. Now I have some granddaughters, so it would be great to revive the skill.

    You are very generous, Corrie.

  26. smocking stickers!!! Oh what a great idea. Fantastic. So glad to find your store too.

  27. smocking stickers? What a fantastic idea. I’ve been wanting to smock since seeing the navy with white stitching at UK Lass in US. Fab comp. Hope I win!

  28. Super cute & super clever Corrie!! I’m unable to download emails today so checking out all the blogs i neglect. Love Posie

  29. oh my goodness these are too cool! what a totally fantastic idea! -kb

  30. Love it. Such a great idea. I wonder what the nanas would say about that. Have a great weekend.

  31. Love the idea of smocking stickers – very clever and would love to give them a burl, so here’s hoping I’m the random number generators friend. Can’t wait ’til the yoyo makers come in!

  32. whether or not I win these— I’m gonna look into investing in some. I love the look of smocking but am too intimidated by it.

  33. Smocking is really the only craft I hav’nt tried! I would love to be entered! anne molino at hotmail dot com!

  34. Thank you for such a fab giveaway. Wow a cheat’s way through smocking?? This would make life a whole lot easier. ;D

  35. Oh Corrie – you ARE so generous! I did try smocking a couple of years ago with the iron on transfers – too confusing! What a great little idea.
    xxxx

  36. What a great invention. This would be so helpful and smocking is too cute for baby clothes.

  37. Ohhh Ive wanted to try smocking for soo long!

  38. Smocking stickers – what a great idea. I’d love to have a go at those. Brilliant!

  39. these look fabulous! i have been thinking for awhile now how i would love to attempt smocking on a dress for my little girl but it looks so daunting these would help put the task on a today do list not on a year to do list : ) thank you!

  40. They look soooo cool!I’m thinking a pretty smocked nighty :heart: with butterfly sleeves.

  41. Brilliant!!!
    I’ve been thinking about giving smocking a go but gotta say I’m a bid terrified by the adventure. Those stickers look like they’d be an excellent travelling companion.

  42. Thanks for the give away. Got to love smocking.

  43. wow its amazing what they will come up with but for a beginner like me its a great incentive! You will be happy to know that I have moved my Brother sewing machine next to my computer and actually plugged it in so its ready to go! You are sooo generous! Thanks for your inspiration!
