Welcome to Sweetie Bean!
baby’s first table setup uwu
It all begins with an idea. Sweetie Bean started from the simple need: I wanted cute and adorable stickers in color palettes I found interesting for my planners and bullet journal. You know what they say….if you can’t find it, make it! My need for cute things, and my love for learning new crafts is where Sweetie Bean grew legs in 2019. But, if I’m going to tell the whole story, I have to share that Sweetie Bean wasn’t it’s first name. Originally, I started this business under the name BJB (Bullet Journal Babes) which is what my friends and I called ourselves when we met up once a month to draw in our bullet journals, or setup our planners for the coming month. Once I got started making sticker sheets, I really felt like I wanted to make more than just bullet journal/planner stickers. I wanted a business name that meant more to me and felt more personal, and finally landed on Sweetie Bean. Sweetie Bean is what my dad has called me my entire life. He passed away in 2017 very suddenly, and naming my business Sweetie Bean felt like such a great way for me to have him a part of my every day business. Plus, it’s cute, duh! I find so much joy in learning how to do things myself, that is why 99% of what I create is handmade. I have used manufacturers in the past for things like keychains, but I just don’t feel as proud if I don’t make them by hand!
Much like a Pokémon, Sweetie Bean has evolved over the last few years. I would say as it stands now, we are in that middle evolution. I’m ready to build for whatever is next. Welcome to my little corner of the internet where my goal is to offer the cutest and most accessible handmade stationery, original art, and hand crafted goodies! I hope to pack an order for you, or see you at my next art market or convention! Thanks for stopping by!~
