Another solid Fiskars product. I was nervous when I opened this box and found no instructions inside. The pictures on the back of the box seemed hardly sufficient for instructing me, an artistic klutz, in the operation of such a gadget. I was pleasantly surprised! In just a couple of quick snaps, I had this little bor...

First Time Success. Everything was packed well. No rips, dents, breakage nor leakage. Two pkgs of wax were not quite 1lb but it wasn't a deal breaker.

Perfect. I do a LOT of three hole punching, believe it or not! I had a heavy Swingline "regular" three hole punch and it did a fine job, but I have always dreaded (and procrastinated) when I'd have more than ten or so sheets of paper to deal with. So, when I was offered this punch, I was quite excited! I have to admit ...

Pretty snowflake punch & good quality. I purchased this snowflake punch for use in card making.

Little Styrofoam Pieces Everywhere and Missing Parts. I like the candle, but the packaging was awful.

THEN- there are three metal supports ...

Great Thread Rack for 1000m Embroidery Thread Cones. I am very happy with this thread stand. The pins are perfectly spaced for the 1000m cones of embroidery thread (vs the 250m Sulky thread spools). I'm assuming that must be what the description means when it says it will hold the "king" spools. The pegs are definitel...

Best Deal Ever for Washi Tape. I received these in the mail today and I could not be happier. They are fantastic for the price. I use Washi tape daily in my planner and doing crafts. My daughter also uses it as well. We use up a lot of Washi tape constantly. You get 8 rolls that are either thicker or the same thic...

Do not buy wood from Midwest Products. Bought this for 4th grade bridge building project, along with two other balsa material packs, one from Midwest and one from Revell. This "Economy Bag" was nothing like the picture when it showed up. On the packaging it states "random sizes or shapes". I received 3/4 of the wood...

I love this stuff. I love this stuff! This is the best deal I can find and I go through at least one of these a month with my ceramics. You won't find a better deal on gold luster than this, and if you figure out how to use it right, it is gorgeous and amazing. I fire it to 1300 degrees Fahrenheit and it seems to be th...

Excellent Quality - but yellow paper. The description says "quality white paper", but unless they have changed it, it is actually quality yellow paper (a very pale yellow, but still yellow). I have several Moleskines of pocket and large size that I use in various capacities. They are extremely portable and durable, a...

Great When Used Properly. I have been using this bottle (bought from another store) for a few months now. Compared to other options (e.g., using toothpicks to apply small amounts of glue, working with bigger bottles of glue to get small amounts on quilled pieces) it works soooo much better! The bottle is plyable and ...

It's like Edward Scissorhands thought up the design of this case. Be warned. Xacto really needs to examine this product and their heads. I have had to tape the plastic insert that holds all the extra blades into the box since at first it simply fell out dropping blades everywhere. Fun, right? When I taped it in I also ...

Never thought I would say a "Toilet Nightlight is Awesome. I actually purchased this Toilet Nightlight to use only on the weekends when my grandchildren sleep over but upon receiving this and testing it out I haven't taken it off the toilet!! I can't believe that I could think that a toilet nightlight is awesome but I ...

Pretty good steel - edges need LOTS of work. For a first set of wood carving chisels and at a pretty good price, I can recommend this set IF you know how to sharpen straight and curved carving edges. That's why you can get the set for such a low price. The chisels have nice palm handles that help you to control the edg...

Have a Leather Wax on Hand before You Begin. I had a challenge with an old leather couch, kind of a terra cotta color. There was not NEARLY enough product sent to do the repair but they HAPPILY sent more yellow that I needed, as is mentioned in the literature accompanying the product. However, I had mixed the color to ...

and the Piranha fit the bill nicely. Sturdy construction. Wow, did a lot of Vine Reviewers choose these scissors to review! There must be some sort of scissors drought going on. Oh no! My scissors died! What will I do? Rip things? But then wed have all those uneven edges! Uneven edges? Cant have that. Scissors, I need ...
