Paying for Plastic and Air. This is a very expensive product. I researched it, and the jury is still out whether it is effective or not. I ordered the spray and the refill. When I received the products, I opened the spray and was shocked to see the bottle was only 2/3 full. I poured the fluid out into a measuring cu...

Works Perfectly for Embroidery. This is the first time I have used an adhesive spray. It was recommended to me by an embroidery group I belong to on Facebook. The bottle is nice and big and should last me a little while. I used this to stabilize a tactical fabric in my hoop so it wouldn't shift at all when I embroidere...

Highly recommended for sunny days. I hesitated about buying this canopy, given the mixed reviews, but we've found it to be a lifesaver this past summer. It kept my son way cooler than our normal Cameleon canopy. Also, the mesh on the sides provides unobstructed side views, which have worked well to keep my little one...

10+ Stars. Some of the most amazing stuff I've ever bought. Simply incredible! I had a viral lung infection that caused me constant coughing for over a year.

Excellent for work, school, and office use. Straight off the bat, this thing is huge! Much larger than what I thought; probably the size of my chest. But hey, you want performance? You got it!

Terrific SAFE option for little face-painting artists. We bought this kit for our 3 boys for Halloween and loved them so much we're keeping them out for face painting whenever creativity strikes!

Just What I Needed. My need for this gadget came from making stereo cards: 3 1/2" x 7" cards with a left & right stereo photo pair printed on them.

Not too bad. This set is a good example of getting what you pay for. Compared to other brands of these kind of tools, this is a very inexpensive set of leather stamping tools.

does the job. I've recently started "recycling" old sweaters by unraveling them and knitting them into something else. I wound my first center-pull ball by hand, and it took hours. I had been looking at ball winders, and the hand-winding experience convinced me to pay for the little machine that could do it more quickl...

don't order this on a tequila bender. I stumbled upon this listing quite accidentally one night after drinking tequila. I had been watching a program on Discovery about how there were thousands and thousands of unadopted Chinese babies, I figured I could get a dependent to help offset some tax burden and help out the C...

So I finally broke down and bought not only this swift, but also a ball winder. And folks, I wish I had done it a long time ago!! Twice as much done is a fraction of the time - an...

Great variety of colors and quality tape delivered to your door. I love Washi tapes and Allydrew puts together nice combinations of colors and designs that blend well with my mini album projects. Most in the set blend with the papers I use in the mini albums and the price is right. They are somewhat shear, but not so...
