Happy Saturday! I'm just gonna dive right in. You know I blogged about this plate earlier when we had very few images of this plate - the new Pueen Celebration Collection Fireworks Festival Plate. This was also the plate I was trying to win during the #celebratewithpueen contest on Instagram. I lost lol, but at least we can still purchase the plate if we choose. Anyhoo now that the plate has released lets take a better look at the pictures of the plate now that we have some.
It's pretty right? Now that we can see the bigger image. What I'm struck by is that this plate is so much like the new DRK designer series plates.to a degree that I'm like hmmm. Lol. I think you know what I'm talking about when you look at this plate. One thing is that now that I can se the plate fully I'm not sure I can see the "fireworks" it actually looks more floral than anything else.
This was the original mock up Pueen showed us when they announced the plate. Am I the only one that really doesn't like these designs as an announcements for new plates? What I mean by that is that I want to see the plates not necessarily the designs that they make with them. Lol but it is consistent with the foral imagery I thought the plate might make.
The actual plate and as you can see it's big. I love that! It means lots of designs at least 50 in fact from that mockup but I suspect there are many more. What do you think? Yay or nay? This plate was available for preorder on the Pueen Cosmetics website up to the 19th of December now it's currently available. I'll be honest and say I'm not a fan of the pre-orders with Pueen. I did it for the Encore Collection and my plates arrived almos more than a month after I placed my order while those that ordered from Amazon got there's in 2 weeks or less. I recommend going the Amazon track as well so that you can qualify for Super Shipper savings. This plate isn't currently on Amazon but should be there in about a week or two. This plate retails for $18.99 + shipping if you get it at the Pueen website. Happy hunting stamperistas and I'll see you next post...
I read somewhere that this plate is/would be a part of a collection? Something like what MoYou is doing it the Zodiac plates, that they will release a new plate for every holiday. Honestly, I can't understand why they wanted to release this one on the christmas holidays when it doesn't have anything to do with it (nor with the name), especially when they had released a new set of plates like a month before.
ReplyDeleteAlso, people were complaining about the price, saying that is too expensive since you can get a full set of plates for almost the same price. I think that for the size of the plate and giving the fact that you get MOS and BuNa plates for the same price, is kind of expected. Do you think the same?
And I also agree with you about pre-sales and not buying directly from Pueen. I ordered the Leisure set that way and received it like a month or so after the order, when EVERYONE already had it on their hands. I'll buy directly from amazon again.
