If you read last weekβs post about the vanishing (and then reappearing!) parcel, youβre probably wondering what the heck was inside! Well, I finally got my hands on that elusive envelopeβand yes, I absolutely tore into it. π βοΈπ
And honestly? It was so worth the wait. Every confusing update, every anxious mailbox peek, every dramatic sigh to the sticker godsβ¦ π
Okay okay, Iβll stop teasingβletβs dive into the unboxing and see what treasures were hiding inside! π

TheCoffeeMonsterzCo Anniversary Sale
March 6th is a very special day for TheCoffeeMonsterzCo fans around the worldβ¦ because itβs the shopβs anniversary! π
Nine years ago, teenaged Helen Wang launched her Etsy shop (while still in high school!) with just a few designsβand now, the shop and its adorable emotis have grown into a cozy empire of cuteness. β¨
Today, TCMC offers hundreds of goodies: sticker sheets, washi tape rolls and strips, pen pouches, fountain pen inks, and even a special fountain pen!
The anniversary sale usually debuts a brand-new theme (this yearβs was Tabletop Treasuresβall stationery! Yay!! ππ), along with new sticker sheets and exclusive items to swoon over. π
(For all the juicy details, check out the TCMC Event Information page.)
The Unboxing of My TCMC Anniversary Sale Order
This yearβs anniversary sale was extra specialβit rolled out in two parts! ππ¦
I only joined in for part one, since part two was all about the brand-new TCMC x Esterbrook fountain pen. And as a total fountain pen newbie, I decided to admire from afar (for now πβ¨).
The Freebies
Any order from TCMC comes with a freebie (the one marked Ch. 3 in the picture belowβthereβs a new one each month!) and a journaling card. But during events like the shopβs anniversary sale, special freebies are added! π
πΈHonestly, I think Helenβs graphic explains the anniversary freebies better than I ever could, so Iβll let it do the talking:

Iβm super happy with the goodies I received! That cute kraft logo vinyl is such a vibe, and the stationery-themed number stickers will be perfect for a monthly spread. π
But my absolute favorite? The “I π stickers” vinyl! π
(I meanβ¦ yes, I love pensβbut not as much as I love stickers! Otherwise this blog would be called Miss Pens or Miss Stationery, right?! π)
Now I kinda wish I couldβve splurged a little more and collected all the βI πβ vinylsβtheyβre so pretty! π Fingers crossed that Helen adds them to the shop somedayβ¦ π

The Stickers
Of course this is where we startβstickers are the best! πβ¨ (Okay okay, I know, Iβve made my pointβ¦ LOL π )

I always grab the large doodles from whatever theme Helen dreams up. Iβm such a sucker for deco stickers, and these are always just perfect. (They come in both regular matte sticker paper and washi sticker paper.) π
Also, having recently switched from a bigger planner (with 1.5″ columns) to a smaller one (with 1.25″ columns), now the Hobonichi Cousin fullboxes fit just right. π

I also splurged and treated myself to the Tabletop Treasures Hobonichi Cousin Base KitβI mean, a stationery theme?? How could I resist! ππ βοΈ
The bigger box size is about 1.5″ by 0.8″, and I love the variety on the Tabletop Treasures pages! All the different box sizes, the little banners, the sticky notesβ¦ it brings such lovely cohesion to a planner spread. π§‘πβ¨
Next up: the anniversary sampler! π₯³ Thereβs a new one every year, filled with fan-favorite sticker designs released over the past 12 months. I get it every timeβitβs such a fun little collectorβs piece. ππ¦
I also picked up the new Reading in the Dark sticker sheet, becauseβ¦ wellβ¦ I love reading! π This one brings me right back to my childhood, sneaking in a few extra chapters past bedtime. ππ―οΈ

The other two sheets I grabbedβOrganize Desk and No Time To Writeβwere to help make those necessary evils a bit more fun. π
βοΈ
I especially love that No Time To Write comes in two types of paper (regular matte and washi paper) and a variety of sizes: from small (the one I got) to large to humongous!
(Just to clarify: itβs the size of the sticker that changes, not the size of the sheet. π)
The Washi Tape & Other Stationery

The Desk Scribbles small sticky envelope (3.6″ x 2.5″) is a little smaller than other adhesive pockets TCMC has made in the past. The regular sticker sheets donβt quite fit in it, but itβs perfect for sticky notes or washi sample cards! ποΈπ
I also canβt get over how focused the little emoti looksβso me when I go off to βplay with my stationeryβ and forget to eat or sleep. π (Oops!)
Now letβs talk washi tape! ππ
The two rolls I picked up are absolutely gorgeous, with soft muted tones and the coziest tabletop treasuresβaka all the stationery goodies we love. βοΈππ
And as always, the quality is top-tierβexactly what youβd expect from a TCMC washi. πβ¨
The wider one (18mm) is called Tabletop Treasures and the slimmer one (15mm) is Stationery Toolbar. Here’s a sample of the full designs:

πThe big Keep Creating envelope is B6-sized (5″ x 7″) and made of semi-transparent plastic, perfect for holding 20+ sticker sheets.β¨
The design matches the one on the journaling card, and I absolutely love itβmainly because it says βKeep creating!β π¨
That message speaks right to my heart. I love to create! Whether itβs doodling, journaling, or setting up a planner spread, that little reminder makes me feel so encouraged and inspired. ποΈπ


The Thing I Was Looking Forward To The Most…
The Blob! π
This magnificent little guy makes me giggle every single time I look at it. ππ
Itβs made from zinc alloy with an antique bronze coating, and itβs surprisingly weighty! Technically, itβs a pen restβprobably designed with fountain pens in mind since so many TCMC fans love thoseβbut honestly? It works with pretty much anything. A pen, a markerβ¦ even a small curling iron if youβre feeling wild. ππ₯
What I adore most are the engraved detailsβthe tiny face, the little logoβ¦ so cute! β¨
And I laughed way too hard at the note on the box that said βThis is not an airplane.β
(Confession: I immediately held it in my hand and flew it across the room making airplane noisesβ¦ just to check. π©οΈπ)
πΈI love it so much, I dedicated a gallery to it:
If I had to mention one con, itβs that the felt bottom leaves a bit of black fuzz on some surfacesβbut itβs minor and wipes away easily with a hand swipe. π§½
The Thing I Didn’t Expect To Love As Much As I Do…
The All The Papers notepad! ππ
This one completely caught me off guardβin the best way! Iβd seen it before and thought, βOh, thatβs cute!β but when I held it in my hands? π I was instantly obsessed. I even went back and ordered two more copies to bring to work! π
I thought itβd be smaller, but itβs actually a great size at 5.75″ x 3.75″, with 30 sheets per pad. Each column is 1.5″ wide, which makes it super functional. And the paper styles? An actual dream: lined, blank, grid, and dot grid. Thereβs something for every mood and task! π§ ππ
And of course, the adorable emotis and stationery illustrations are just the cherry on top. π
Truly, a surprise fave!
