what happened to lisa frank? 🦄📓🦋

[@cherrycordiaI]

Lisa Frank was the genesis of my stationery obsession. Those erasers and pencil toppers didn't erase sh-t but I loved them nonetheless.

[@marikotrue3488]

I know, they did not erase yet I HAD to have them. I literally had to take the "eraser topper" off my pencil to erase things! When I inevitably lost a "topper" I remember being SO sad. 😉

Totally agree that pre-teens are a huge and missed demographic. I do think that children are always ready to grow up as fast as possible (no matter the generation)...but I can't imagine being exposed to this level of social media/aesthetics as a pre-teen girl... I would be in a hurry to be considered an 'adult' too. I think it's so important to make a space for that age-group and not limit their options.

[@bd3966]

I so agree with this. Even with music, there is no teen music anymore. everything is either for very young children (baby shark) or straight up adult music. pre-teens and teens are being super neglected.

There's certainly something so shameless about the ways in which it utilizes colors that you couldn't help but feel awe at. It truly is very nostalgic. I really hope they can market to tweens again.

100 percent agree. It was a ridiculous thing for that girl to claim, especially since she admitted her apartment was inspired by Lisa Frank, so doesn't that make her the copycat?

[@celebrityguest.9530]

i think they had reasoning to be concerned but i was online as this was all going down and if i remember the situation correctly they straight up got evicted because their landlord wanted in on the lisa frank craze, so while they had gotten the approval to create the apartment of their dreams their landlord was perfectly comfortable taking that away to make a quick buck because of the very close resemblance

[@emmablack1230]

Why don't you support her? Is it her as a person (if so why) or is it just not your style?

[@Corgipon]

I absolutely loved this brand ever since as a kid, and I’ll say this: Lisa Frank _was_ ahead of her time. Her designs encapsulated the epitome of 2000s girl fashions and stationery (obviously they have been around since the 80s but this kind of style didn’t get really big until the 2000s).

[@DragonRebelRose]

I had so much Lisa Frank merch when I was a kid in the early 2000s. *Every* girl loved her stuff and we all envied each other over pieces that we didn't have yet. I had Lisa Frank lunch boxes, notebooks, folders, pens, pencils, erasers, toys, even a few clothing items which were the hardest to find. I believe I still have many of my old notebooks and folders from my elementary school days tucked away somewhere. The "Angel" and "American Cowgirl" ones were two of my favorites.

I'm the adult the business is currently aiming for. Born in 1985, I had the folders, stickers, pencils, trapper keepers, lunch boxes, coloring books- literally everything, growing up. But what I'm realizing is that it was my young mom who really loved Lisa Frank and bought all of that stuff. It makes since bc she was a teen when Lisa Frank was launching. I liked it but I didn't love it, you know? That's how I've felt about these modern collabs.. I'm happy to see it but it isn't anything I want to buy, personally. You're right- they should be focusing on the younger market and growing that nostalgia further. Because if I'm the target demo- like many of my friends- I'm not having kids to pass an obsession to in the way it was to me.

This was true for my younger sisters but I was an 80s kid so we just had Hello Kitty, Twin Stars, Etc ..all Sanrio or Disney stuff that was harder to get like form mall specialty stores, and trips to Florida/ California maybe depending on which side eif US. Lisa Frank was way more easily found and a more vibrant option. The more ubiquitous her style became the more others knocked it off and then it sort of got edgier and goth too with grunge of late 90s... My sister's and parents didn't have to go to he mall for the Sanrio store or wait for the book fair at school to get cool items or settle for Hallmark store and get the more grown up versions once stores like Walmart partnered up with Lisa Frank. Before that it was getting similar products it looks from Sticker based stores and magazine orders from companies or go to malls and putting the stickers on your plain stuff like notebooks, lunch boxes and homemade brown paper bag bookcovers. The accessibility and boldness was appealing to that generation where as I thought it too gawdy and preferred Hello Kitty and Disney still and they made their comebacks anyhow as Disney realized they should do more with their Princesses. Walmart and Lisa Frank, etc... took hits as the pendulum swing and other stores like Target and online shopping emerged and Hello Kitty and Disney re-emerged. Basically JO JO Siwa was a repackaging of Lisa Frank style stuff by Walmart in my honest opinion and I said so even at the time. Things just go in cycles.

Loved Lisa Frank stuff as a kid in the 2000s. I didn't know they were still around marketing itself as a nostalgic brand, instead of what I associate them the most as, which is a stationary brand. Like, yeah, I want more notebooks and pencils and stickers of Lisa Frank. Where's that?

I grew up in Tucson. When I was little I was showing my trapper keeper to my friend. She wasn’t impressed and it distressed her. She said “Yeah I’ve met her and she’s not nice. She’s mean to my parents and when I’ve met her she made me work too.” We were 8. Her parents were EVS workers at the Lisa Frank Factory.. Definitely racism as well that was fostered in her workplace.

The apartments looking alike reminds me of the recent KaarinJoy and TayBeepBoop... like no one has a copyright on colour lmao no one is out here saying all minimalist apartments are "copying". Doing each cabinet a different colour? A rainbow if you will? Painting in rainbow is not ground breaking. Kind of odd that these "unique" styles get so defensive when it's proven that they are not unique...almost like instead of actually enjoying that style, they like feeling different

That’s what I’ve been trying to tell people that but I just told I was stupid.

Despite the stuff lisa frank goes through i love seeing the merch in stores and having at least 1 sticker pack, she even has Pillsbury sugar cookies.

Late 90s early 2000s, you were THAT GIRL if you had Lisa Frank school supplies.

i grew up with the 2010s lisa frank. i remember when i was around 6 or 7 hears old i received a lisa frank sticker book. it had mostly stickers of the human characters and i thought it was so cool. sometimes i would just look through the pages admiring each sticker.

12:49 this entire of paragraph is insane. like, a grown ass adult sat down and really wrote that a childish character dressed up as an angel was giving “sexy looks”. these people are doomed

[@yoongiyuu3086]

like this shit REEKS

I had my nine year old birthday party themed around Lisa Frank 🥳

[@13realmusic]

I absolutely loved my Star stationary! I'm surprised overall that line wasn't well received. I used my Star notebook as a journal and wrote in it like letters "Dear Lisa Frank" which was fun, lol!

[@zeroh2hero]

As a guy I remember seeing the folders and school supplies at Wal-Mart back in the early 2000's

I recall the doll characters existing prior to 2010. I was in college in 2010 and the doll designs were on the lisa frank web page when I was in elementary school in 2003. I love the star girl designs. I wonder why they were so worked up over it years later?

Lisa Frank is my childhood. As an adult I have the Morphe makeup.
