Instructor Approved. I work at a Senior Center, we have 5, 4 harness floor looms.

Our director ordered 2 of these wonderful loom...

A decent fabric glue. My son had a shirt with a bunch of stitching on the front and a piece of cloth on the inside was glued on to keep it from rubbing on him. It eventually came off and he said it was irritating him, so I kept the cloth, and bought this glue to re-adhere the protective cloth. I used the "OK To Wash It...

Disappointment. This was a disappointing purchase. I was hoping for a unique conversation piece and instead got a flimsy piece of junk. It is wobbly as the legs are uneven, the metal frame is bent.

Perfectly cut out for cut-outs. This is the third EK Success Paper Shaper we have purchased (all different diameters.) The punch is solidly fabricated, depresses effortlessly through a variety of materials, and most importantly executes a particularly clean, round (laser-like) cut. Weve mostly used the punch with pur...

Birthday Madness. I bought this kraft paper while planning my daughter's First Birthday. I wanted a material that I could use for a wide-range of purposes at the Birthday Party (table-cloth for food, wrapping paper, sign material, book-making, etc...) and I found it in this product. We used compostable plates, bowls an...

Not worth the money. It's $100 worth of nothing special. The only cut you can make is straight acrossed, and that $100 price tag doesn't help the bottle come apart any better than a $25.00 cutter. You still have to go through the process of heating/cooling in order to get a clean break, and you still have to sand the e...

Quality of product seems to wax and wane. I am a wildlife and nature photographer that produces and sells fine art prints of my work and as such, I recently purchased 3 separate orders of these mat sets... The first, a pack of 10 16x20 white mats, arrived in pristine condition - they were packed nicely in a purpose mad...

Nice heavy duty bags for bread or snacks. I bought the 1.5 ml.bags for freezing and storing homemade bread in addition to these bags which are 2 ml. thick. The 1.5 ml bags are plenty heavy for bread, but I also make homemade corn chips that would poke holes in a thinner bag. These bags are plenty thick for this purpose...

Definitely worth it. Love Big Shot Plus! Bought as replacement for the Cuttlebug. The extra wide platform allows you to put your embossing folders and dies in sideways and paper can hang outside at whatever angle you want. I use my Cuttlebug cutting plates on the larger base plate (and adapters) as I don't have larger ...

Used For The Price Of New -- Ho, Ho, Ho. Ever bought something and had a niggling feeling as you unpacked the box that it was maybe not entirely new? So it was Christmas morning this year when my daughter opened her "brand new" Artista Pottery Wheel. The first clue it might not be: 1) It had dried clay stuck on the ...

Scissors work well enough, but the stand is not particularly sturdy. The scissors are nicely rounded on all non-cutting edges and comfortable to hold. They cut through paper fairly easily. The Microban may or may not help since the rest of the classroom items will be shared and touched by the kids (but at least the ...

Stopped working after first use of about 5 minutes. Returned item, would not recommend. Too small of a glue gun (and glue of course) for my projects, I used my other one for outdoor stuff - such as attaching outdoor solar lights to patios and backyard etc. After first use of this gun, it stopped working after about ...
