No, I'm not talking about the new TV show. I don't watch TV. I have trouble sitting still and devoting attention to it- unless it's a new episode of THE WALKING DEAD. And even then I will browse websites or magazines or talk on the phone if it goes too long between zombie fights.
I'm talking about K&CO's SMASH BOOKS! (Or is it SMASHbook?) I LOVE THESE THINGS! Do you? First of all- they're extremely nice looking. And I love the pen and glue-stick combo. But then: there are the accessories. Have you bought the SMASHstamp? Freakin' adorable. And handy!
So what is it that has Mr. K in such a frenzy, tonight?
The new SMASH books and accessories, that's what...
I was reading one of my favorite blogs- THE SCRAPPY JEDI, and saw the photos from CHA. And there is was- the new SMASH tape. And the new giant sized SMASH books.
What's up with the tape? The first one, called SWATCH- I'm going to need at least two rolls of this, just to start with- looks like random swatches of fabric or paper, could be torn in small pieces as an accent to a layout, and would even look great in a long strip, as a border.
The second roll of tape is called CALENDAR.
The third thing that caught my eye? The label-maker. Why would I need this? I have a perfect, vintage DYMO label-maker. I found it at thrift store, in its own plastic case with rolls of original wood-veneer looking tape! But, dangit- I do, truly, love all things SMASH!
Well, definitely go over to The Scrappy Jedi and check out her photos, fresh from CHA.
Hey you.. I'm giving away a smash book and some goodies with it this month!!! Check it out in the February giveaway! I do not own one and prefer to make my own to fit my standards but they are wonderful adn thus far I own all the accessories they have put out, cause I'm rotten.. lol
ReplyDeleteOh and thank goodness you weren't talking about the show cause I may have lost my mind.. lol
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the show, yet! I'm guessing it's good, then? I had to be at rehearsal on its first night- and was wondering how it was!!

That new Smash book looks to be big: maybe 10-12"... better for event planning, vacation recording, etc. I want the small one for trip journaling. I have purchased a few of the accessories at Fred Meyer on sale. They tell me the Smash items are not selling and I should watch for a clearance of them. So, my old Dymo is from the 70's and orange and still works perfect: just can't give up on it....heck it's vintage now.
ReplyDeleteFun post; thanks.
I love my old Dymo! Mine is tan- I would love an orange one- or the green one my Dad had when I was young!
DeleteI'm surprised to hear the Smash stuff isn't selling - is it just at that store? Even an LSS near me sold out of her first shipment- and when Michaels got them in, it looked like the display was molested by monkeys.

Oh I haven't seen the show Smash. I was sayign I'm glad your post was about the Smash book nto the show.. lol I have a few friends who are into glee and other shows like that who weren't impressed with Smash but I personally haven't seen it.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely not into Glee. But musical theatre, yes- so I wanted it to be good, because I like Megan Hilty. lol

I am thinking about buying my first Smash Book this week! With the 50% off coupon and then just add to the collection of items after that! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Princess! Good morning!
DeleteI love my Smash book! Obviously. I use mine, mostly, as a planner/date book/idea book. And I love the accessories- you GOTTA get the SmashStamp. First thing when you get the book. Use another Fitty-off coupon. It's cheap enough anyways. And the little books of tags are cool- too, perfect to use on other things, layouts, etc. You gonna love it!
