If you were a Sex and the City fan, Carrie Bradshaw's worst break-up story - that she got dumped by Jack Berger via Post-It note - is certainly one that sticks.
But thankfully one man decided to use the paper slips for more romantic purposes - to spring a surprise proposal on his true love.
Brett Beutler from Littleton, Colorado, wrote 'I love you' on 8,000 three-by-three-inch squares of paper and used them to wallpaper his girlfriend, Megan Loosli's front room.
Going to extremes: Brett Beutler from Littleton, Colorado, proposed to his girlfriend, Megan Loosli using 8,000 Post-it notes - he had to work quickly while she was out at work
He then wrote 'will you marry me?' by pasting brightly-colored sticky notes over the top.
?
His father helped him with the DIY proposal project, which had to be done before Miss Loosli returned from work.
They used a chair so they could paper right up to the ceiling and took care to work around features such as door and window frames.
Time-consuming: Mr Beutler wrote 'I love you' on each paper square
She said yes: The happy couple are now set to be married
Thankfully the hard work paid off and Miss Loosli said 'yes'.
She changed her Facebook relationship status on June 5 to mark the occasion and friends and family quickly offered their congratulations.
Mr Beutler's grand gesture contrasts sharply with Jack Berger's in the hit TV show Sex and the City.
After telling Carrie Bradshaw that he 'loved' her, he left her during the night with a brief explanation scrawled on a Post-it note.
Look of devastation: If you were a Sex and the City fan, Carrie Bradshaw's worst break-up story - that she got dumped by Jack Berger via Post-It note - is certainly one that sticks
The memo, which he stuck to her computer screen, read: 'I'm sorry. I can't. Don't hate me.'
Mr Beutler is currently a pre-med student at Brigham Young University in Rexburg, Idaho, while Miss Loosli works a wireless consultant for the mobile giant, Verizon.
There is no word on when the couple's wedding will take place.
