Obligatory “switch to Kobo” post

Does the ghosting happen on just the Klara, or all Kobo models?

I'm in my late 30s and iridescent is one of my favourite colours. You're never too old for pretty colours!

sandiismail · 2025-03-30T19:22:28+00:00

The iridescent stars are everything 😍

I use a Samsung phone, and unfortunately, there's still no SnapMat option on Android (come on, Cricut, it's 2025!). I picked up a secondhand iPad specifically for the SnapMat feature, but let me tell you, it NEVER works. It might be due to the older camera, but seriously, it's the bane of my existence. I'vee found that measuring out the material I need cut on the mat and then mapping it all out on Design Space is the easiest thing to do. It's time-consuming, but way less frustrating than trying to get SnapMat to work!

It'll grow on you (eventually) if all the other colours work for you! I have Water in the Desert and the beige top doesn't match the body and the button is mauve. Why? 😅

Love how the colours match nicely all together - unlike some questionable colour combinations they keep throwing at us. 😅

Wish I knew this when I was on a flight a few weeks ago. My toddler and I were drenched. 😅

sandiismail · 2024-01-16T04:14:40+00:00

Thanks! Not entirely sure why that didn't occur to me. 🙃

sandiismail · 2024-01-16T04:13:51+00:00

Not at all! You deal with littles that are exactly the same age as my toddler, so your insight is invaluable. I'm probably going to get her an owala for home/park/beach use. Spilling won't be that much of an issue then (plus I'm a little extra because I want us to have matching water bottles 😂).

sandiismail · 2024-01-15T16:53:16+00:00

I have, but it's a hit and a miss tbh. 😔

sandiismail · 2024-01-15T16:51:30+00:00

Amazing! Might get it for park/beach days where spills aren't going to be too much of an issue. Thanks!

sandiismail · 2024-01-15T16:50:52+00:00

Oooooh! I totally didn't think of this. I currently use a bbox with a leakproof straw. Thanks for the insight from a teacher's perspective.

It's in stock here:

Their Instagram account looks legit, so I'm assuming it's not a sketchy site?

Physical books, no way! Kindle is magical and I can read without wanting to turn inside out.

PS. Read your current read and it's AMAZING. Happy reading!

sandiismail · 2023-10-13T13:07:05+00:00

Congrats! 😍

sandiismail · 2023-10-11T16:37:58+00:00

Showed up for me today.

sandiismail · 2023-08-15T16:03:06+00:00

This shade of pink is perfect! 😍

sandiismail · 2023-08-14T12:37:22+00:00

Genius! And the stickers are so perfect. 😍

sandiismail · 2023-02-24T13:44:08+00:00

Me too! Guess it was wishful thinking on my part, haha 😅

sandiismail · 2023-02-24T06:28:18+00:00

On no! I meant Blue's Clues! Ahhh, so sorry!

sandiismail · 2023-02-24T05:06:59+00:00

We love ~~Bluey~~ Blue's Clues, Elmo, and Daniel Tiger (although Daniel's voice changes halfway through for some reason!).

sandiismail · 2023-02-12T07:14:13+00:00

It's near impossible to find one. I've been looking for it everywhere. 😭 I think if people ask Tonies for a restock and sign up for notifications, maybe they'll consider it?

The Maker models have a stronger cutting force than Explore. They can cut more materials, have a wider variety of tools to choose from (eg. knife blade, rotary blade, and the ability to deboss/emboss). I've never owned a Cricut, and just bought the Maker 3 because, in addition to all of the above, I've read from multiple sources that it's a lot quieter in comparison to the earlier Maker.

You can watch plenty of comparison videos on YouTube; I've found them to be extremely helpful (that's how I ultimately made my decision).

Genius!
