Title: What to do with old stickers?
Post by: elish2 on January 17, 2014, 06:12:38 PM
I got Dream castle in a lot and it has a bunch of stickers that are not sticking anymore, what do you do with these?  :P

Mine live are in a baggy which lives in my accessory drawer.
I've considered using a glue stick to reattach them, but i'm too chicken!

Perhaps you could run them through a sticker maker if you want them reattached. Xyron makes several different sizes and can be found at Michael's and Hobby Lobby. I have several Xyons that I used for scrapbooking, and I love them.

I know some people laminate them and sell them. Not too sure if there is much value in them. Maybe Hathorcat knows?

I did this with the stickers on my Show Stable and it turned out fine  :ohyeah: Glue sticks have a habit of depositing little clumps of glue though, so make sure you remove these before sticking otherwise you get bumps.  :)

There is resale value in them - people are often looking for better quality stickers for playsets when they have them missing. But its not particularly large value unfortunately. However if you were selling, if they are in nice condition and easily reattached, I am sure you will find a new home for them.

However, if its for a Dream Castle you are keeping and will have on display then I would simply use some blu-tac [I think it's called mounting putty in the US] to put them back up. This way you don't have any glue seepage/damage issues to worry about and you can even take them  back down in the future if you wished. If you are selling the Dream Castle I would simply include them with the item so that the next owner can reattach them as they wish.
