[Rachel Kent]

Do you know our story? Our mom started this entire company out of a little shoe box of stickers in our basement back in 1997! I was ten years old and one of the first "order pickers" lol. I remember putting on music and my older cousin and I would have so much fun dancing around and picking orders one by one. Now we push around carts in the warehouse and can pick 15-30 orders at once. We have come a long way!

Five years ago we lost our beautiful mom to cancer. We became small business owners overnight, and it took quite a while to get the hang of it. With the help of our amazing staff, two of our aunts, and my husband coming on board as CEO, we were able to keep her legacy going. We want to thank YOU for being here and supporting us. We couldn't do it without you cherries!

ACOT is the place to be. I've been here since before your mom past and have loved this place the very first day I found it back in 2009. I love the business your mom created and LOVE that her family has kept her legacy alive. Thank you for being here for us Cherries as well.

I love ACOT and being a huge sticker fan growing up I would have been going nuts getting to be around all those stickers.  I love your company story except of course you all losing your mom.  It's so incredibly hard to lose you mom.  I lost my mom 15 years ago and she was my favorite crafting buddy!  She loved to sew and I love paper crafts.  Your mom is so proud of all of you for finding joy in running ACOT and being so successful.  I'm grateful for the crafting online community you have created with the message boards, youtube, FB, and Instagram's...this brings us all together to connect when we don't have someone nearby to share our favorite activity!

Thank you ACOT and hugs!!

I have been with ACOT since it was Stickers Galore!  You all have done so much to build the site, which I know must have been hard to continue on after your mom died, but maybe that gave you the power to get through the hardest times.  I''ll bet she is looking down from heaven, cheering you on and so proud of your success.  I always like that you continue to remind us periodically of your story, remembering your mom in the process!

This is why I shop and hang out here. I always liked supporting a family business, not some huge, monolith run by CEOs in suits. You all are doing an amazing job, and your mother would be very, very proud. I've been for a lonnnng time, and I appreciate all you do to keep this community going. I'm inspired everyday by the message board. I sing your praises to all my crafty friends!

I love to read this story again and again!  I'm thankful for ACOT and the perseverance that your mom put into starting this business.  Thankful too, that you all have continued her legacy.  I'm sure she smiles down on you with love every day.

Every time I read your story I get tears in my eyes. I really think I did order from Stickers Galore way back when but I'm just not sure. I admire all of you for being such a tightknit family and keeping it all together, it is appreciated more than you know. I just love this site, it keeps me motivated. I also love it because of you and your family and all of the cherries that makes it feel like a family. THANK YOU!
