Love this clay. I love this stuff and so does my kids. It was our first time doing a project with this type of clay. So I set the kids down and showed them a youtube video on how to make a snowman with it. My God-daughter made Olaf from Frozen and I made my whole family in snowmen. I got the multipack of 30 colors for ...

Cant beat it for the price. This for the price is pretty darn amazing! We have a couch that the color/ staining has started falling off in areas due to wear. This product makes it barely noticeable.

Does exactly what it's supposed to - with a little help. I got exactly what I was expecting with this. It is a piece of relatively cheap plastic. That said, it can do exactly what it says. The clamp is not very deep, so you won't be able to use it on a countertop. But it works great on the computer desk I have, which i...

It wasn't a hit with me, but everyone is different. Not impressed. Once wax is poured in the sticker loses its battle and flops up. I pour at about 110 and I use a candle wick holder in place.

Dangerous Junk. I purchased this kit to get back into carving as i thought it would give me more options compared to the buck knife i used to carve with as a kid.

So now what. This kit is great except for one thing.... THERE ARE NO INSTRUCTIONS. ZERO. ZIPPO. NADA. I have never done quilling before. I have a pinterest board with tons of designs and so I bought this kit so I could create some things of my own. But, but, but..... I have no idea how to use anything in here! Even on...

It can do anything. I love love love this glue. I've bought other glues, but I always come back to this. I use it for fabric, for metal, ribbons, paper, anything. I've used this to glue together hair clips, the lids of canning jars, to make a banner, to glue ribbon on top of other ribbon, etc. It's so strong, yet when...

Strong, easily moldable, has a scent. InstaMorph is an interesting, if slightly finicky accomplice for all sorts of unexpected uses. The container yields BB-sized balls of mostly opaque white plastic, similar to the appearance of the robot skin in I, Robot. When dropped in a bowl of hot water, they'll turn transparent ...

All I have heard and read about this scissor is true - it is a 'best product. At this cost, why would you buy imitation ones for more at Bed Bath & Beyond? Forgot those and the Dollar Store cheapos which you will only land-fill many editions the often times they break or are useless after Christmas morning. This and al...

but I think they need to start pushing some of their product manufacturers to make better effort at quality control of their pro. MISSING CONTENT: Just opened today the package, which was shipped early March. The Amazon description, as well as the declaration on the package contents listing says that 5 blades were inc...
