Right handed; NOT left hand scissors.... Buyers beware. The proof: I am adding photos of the product, the packaging and my orange handled pair of real lefties... Notice is says so on the blade.

Perfect size for making bottle cap crafts. This punch provides an easy way to make one-inch circles of lightweight paper. Four-stars rather than five because it would be helpful if it were a little heavier-duty and sharper. You have to hold the punch in what seems at first like an upside-down way in order to use the wi...

in fact its soo dull that cutting wood with this device means you need . The angled measuring cuts are the only pro for this product. the blade came unaligned by a couple of milimeters, and trying to fasten the bolt to align the blade with the groove only prevents the spring from springing the handle back into place. 2...

Excellent quality - perfect for Furniture and Home Decor projects. I buy and make many molds for crafting, rehab furniture and mixed media artwork.

New addiction. Move along... Nothing to see here... That is unless you are in need of a new crafting vise! What?!?!? How have I not tried washi tape before???

Great for craft projects. Great quality! The colors also have a subtle shimmer which was a pleasant surprise.

Washi tape! For all your paper hobbies. This is wonderful Washi tape. It sticks well and the colors and patterns will go with a lot of my scrapbooking needs.

Fine Fiskar Scissors. These scissors work wonderfully. I had two pairs of large scissors in my kitchen - one with a broken point and neither cut well.

It's pretty good, in my opinion. So, in this pack you get 200 sheets of 6x6in origami paper. There's 100 of each type of design, and you can see the colors in the provided pictures. The papers are really saturated in color. They're very strong and consistent. As the other reviewer said, one side is glossy and feels re...

Results May Vary. My first package of these were great. Grain followed the length (24in dimension), there were very few knots and patched spots, and my 60w laser sliced through it like butter.

Too thick for the sizzix texture boutique. It is a nice design but I haven't found a use for it yet. I will probably tear it to use in a collage.

Great for use in making lotion bars. This beeswax is dark yellow in a solid block. I used it in my homemade lotion bars and lip balm.

To each their own . I bought 2 packs of these (from a craft website) after seeing them in person at a store. They are large, but hey - taste is personal! I put 12 of these (2 packs) and 6 of the pearl version (1 pack) into my white rose bridal bouquet and I LOVED how it turned out. My florist simply cut the metal stick...

Slightly off. I bought this Cherish Punch a short while before the Holidays and only recently got the time to play around with it. Sadly I had already tossed out the package as well as the insert that came with it so I was really at a loss- first trying random pieces of paper to see how best I can get the two to work t...

Using wet foam for self-watering pots. Made some self-watering plant pots following plans I found on the Internet. Basically, you cut a milk jug or two liter plastic bottle in half. You plug the mouth of the bottle with wet foam by pressing it down into the foam block then insert the top half upside down into the bot...

I've been using Cuttlebugs (I had two of the original green ones) for a long time and broke one while making my Christmas cards. Rather than being without a backup, I ordered this lovely blue one. I have limite...

Don't waste your time on these knock-off looking scissors. These scissors look and feel like a low quality knock-off. They came unpackaged in an amazon box and were zip-tied together. The blades look dingy and had black ink smudges on them and were not like other Fiskars blades I have on other pairs before. The handles...

It is SO my beeswax. If you are into particular kinds of folk art, you know exactly why one would need such an enormous cake of beeswax. I purchased this block for last summer's batik workshop, where I shaved off pieces of it to mix with paraffin (the blend is less expensive to use in bulk; we're on a tight budget)an...

Batik. I bought this for a watercolor batik project. The first time, following the directions I have, I wadded up a square of rice paper, wet it then attempted to unfold it. It took many more minutes than I thought it should have and some pieces tore as well. I managed to get it unfolded and placed it on the (wet with ...

Perfect if you know what you are doing. These wicks are great. I make candles of all sizes but use these for 3" diameter soy candles. There is more to candle making than sticking a wick in a jar and filling with wax. The bad reviews and pics I've seen on here seem to be the wrong size container. Mine burn cleanly with ...
