Asked over the desk
Short answers to the questions this catalog gets asked most.
- What does the name Sticker Therapy mean?
- It is the name the hobby picked up online: the craft of building printed rooms out of layered paper stickers. This site uses it as a hobby label, nothing more. We catalog books, and we make no claims about what an evening of peeling does beyond filling a page.
- What is a set, and what is a scene?
- A set is one printed background page plus its matching sticker sheet. A scene is what you get once the sheet has been placed: a finished room. One standard album holds twenty of them.
- Why do so many books say twenty sets on the cover?
- Twenty backgrounds became the standard shape of the album, the way puzzle boxes settled on a thousand pieces. Bigger and smaller books exist; the count on the cover tells you which shelf you are on.
- Do I need tweezers?
- For standard albums, mostly yes, and the majority of boxes include a pair. Big size books are the exception: their cutouts are wide enough for fingers alone.
- Which books suit a child?
- The small kits and the strips shelf are made for younger hands, and standard albums work for older kids who can manage tiny pieces. The picker asks about this directly and keeps gothic themes out of results for children.
- Who makes these books?
- Mostly small studios and print shops, many without a storefront of their own. This site is an independent reference shelf, not a manufacturer: we sort the titles, the studios make them.
- Can I buy directly from this site?
- No. Every button leads to the listing at our retail partner, and payment, delivery, and the parcel itself are handled there.
- The price here differs from the listing. Which is right?
- Theirs. We copy figures when a page is built, and the partner moves prices whenever they like. The number at their checkout is the one that counts.
- Can a placed sticker be moved?
- Usually once, carefully, within the first minute or two. After that the adhesive settles and pulling risks tearing the background. The care note covers what to do instead.
- Where should a complete beginner start?
- With a standard twenty set album in a theme you like looking at, or with a small kit if you want to test the craft first. The first book note walks through the choice in detail.
