I liked their small mermaid sets and their Fall release. That was when I first heard of them. Ever since I have checked out their releases and liked nothing whatsoever. I was really,really underwhelmed with their Xmas Sets. I also think they are a bit overpriced. overpriced

I see plenty of companies whose stamps I am not a fan of. I haven't seen any sudden furor over their stamps but I do love their dies. They have nice word dies.

When I asked awhile back what the favorite stamp companies were, I saw a lot of Lawn Fawn fans. I saw several of the popular companies listed, and Honey Bee was mentioned.
I wasn't really that excited about any of the popular stamp companies, and I checked out each of them.
I did not see anything of interest at Honey Bee, but the same was true of Lawn Fawn, MFT, Mama Elephant, etc. Personal taste is very subjective. I see nothing wrong with having different taste in stamps, papers, trends, whatever.
However, it is also possible that some of the individuals who are showcasing the Honey Bee stamps received free products for that purpose. It would be a smart move by any stamp or scrapbook company. The people who follow a particular scrapbooker or stamper will see the product used, and probably want to buy it, even if they would never have considered buying it just from seeing it on their website.

I have their Celebration Box stamps and dies and love them. There are a few sentiment stamps that I almost bought, but just haven’t yet. I really haven’t looked at much else.

I don’t have any particular stamp lines that I like more than others, although I’m not a fan of the cute kids and critters styles, mostly because it doesn’t fit in with the people I scrap/make cards for. I like the script on Honeybee stamps more that most of the others, which is totally personal preference. The other thing I like are their versatile stamps that have the root word, such as Thank, with various ending like -ful, -s, You, etc.

I don't care for Honey Bee either. I don't think I would take them even if they were free.

I have one HB set I think which I do like and use a reasonable amount but haven’t looked at recent releases as I’m trying to cut down what I buy. I agree it’s very much a matter of personal taste and also what kind of cards/projects people make. Again I have a few Lawn Fawn sets for cards for my niece but certainly wouldn’t buy LF exclusively. I think it’s great to have a variety of manufacturers and products out there in terms of stamps and dies.

I rarely meet a stamp manufacturer that I can't find something I like. There are a few Honey Bee sets in my collection - sentiment sets and the celebration box. They are, however, not one of my go-to companies.

A little to cute for my taste. But it’s no big deal since there are a lot of stamp companies and everyone’s taste is different. I’m sure my favorites are someone else’s “No thanks”.
