Really workable with other materials | 5 |
A few years ago I received a very similar set as a gift, with the same air compressor and regulator, and the Master Model E91 airbrush. I cannot speak of the other brushes but this has been my experience:
-It was a good starting set, and great to learn on especially since I didn't want to invest a ton of money on something I didn't know how to use. The learning curve was pretty steep, but after watching a lot of youtube videos I started to get the hang of it.
-The air compressor is nice, although loud for its size. It has lasted through the years and I will continue to use it until it wears out, even if it does annoy my neighbors. (Good idea is to not use this at night or when others are sleeping!)
-The airbrush on the other hand, has always been a pain. Even with frequent cleaning, it often times would stop working correctly, due to how it was made. When it worked, it was great. But just today the trigger snapped in half as I was using it (it wasn't strong metal but plated) and unfortunately the only way to replace it is to either buy a new one or get a replacement kit with more things than I need. Please note that Master is a "knockoff" brand, so unlike buying name brand like Paasche, Badger or Iwata, if something goes wrong and its out of the return window, you are pretty much out of luck. I have already purchased my "upgrade" from this kit, but while it was cheap I did get a lot of use out of it.
-The instruction booklet was... okay. Again, I got a ton more knowledge looking at videos on the internet.
All in all, this kit would be good for a beginner, but know that it is with its flaws. | 3 |
Love these..I like the colors and the glitter!! | 4 |
Good quality beads, multiple sizes in a storage box. | 5 |
I find that doing simple crafts makes me feel both relaxed and productive. They also allow me to still engage in conversations, watch tv, and/or keep an eye and ear on the kids. I love cross stitching, but I don't have anyone to ask when I have questions, so I always look for kits that are stamped rather than counted. I also look for kits that are all-inclusive (i.e. include a hoop and thread) so that I don't have to run out in the middle of a project to get something that will allow me to finish (I can guarantee, I wouldn't get done).
On all counts, this kit met my needs. It's simple enough that I was able to complete it in just a few hours, but involved enough that I didn't get bored just repeating the same color over and over again.
I actually bought the kit for my 7-year-old because she had expressed an interest in cross-stitching when I worked on a previous piece, but she was intimidated by a few of the hearts that used multiple threads colors. One day I might venture into counted cross stitch, but until then, this is a nice project that requires little innate talent but will makes me feel quite accomplished for having finished. | 5 |
All that's glitter shines. | 5 |
These are just the right size. | 5 |
O use this in my applique projects. | 4 |
Goes on smooth, leaves a true matte finish. Excellent choice to keep chalk paint from scratching. | 5 |
Yep, they're needles. | 5 |
I know some of the other reviews had a lot of negative things to say about this product but I like it.
Things to keep in mind
1. this is my first piece of silicone bake ware
2. I don't bake often
the items popped out with ease -- I love the fact that I did not have to use baking cups
yes it is a smaller cup cake than my metal pan but I like the smaller size
cooked evenly
cleaned up EASILY -- much easier than traditional bake ware
I did use cooking spray but I suspect it would have came out well even without cooking spray.
This also make a great freezer mold for larger ice cubes and freezing cubes of roasted garlic for use laster.
I know some are disapointed but I really do like it -- I actually might bake more because it makes backing so easy. | 5 |
Love it, the colors are vibrant and pretty, used it for a small color party and worked very well, would look good for pictures or just to use for fun, non toxic, got a lot in my mouth and i was fine, it didn't taste good but didn't make me throw up. | 5 |
I like this tool a lot. I do wish the little plastic things came in different sizes and colors for different uses. I like to tack down my turtle necks after folding them in thirds to accomodate my short neck and also rolled cuffs because of my short arms. They look neater when they stay put. But sometimes the black and white does show against the fabric colors. | 4 |
I haven't used it yet, but this is exactly what I wanted for using on small gluing projects. I like it alot. | 5 |
Very sharp shears, I have not used any other sewing shears so I cannot compare to other brands or older models, I just know these work well. | 4 |
Love them work great for my wallets I make | 5 |
Works in those 1/2 inch score edges when making albums, etc...
Nothing beats it. This size is ideal. | 5 |
Great product and as always with supermart purchases quick shipping | 5 |
well as with anything park it's a good little will get you through kit,hard to say much else other than patches they work | 5 |
I love these | 5 |
And that's only due to the fact that I am unable to purchase the Clover Mini Iron II - - - - - they are apparently out of stock.
I'm going to hang on to it anyway and hope that the Mini Iron II will be offered again soon. | 3 |
I think this is a nice one. It has alot of stuff to do.and the sayings our all nice. It's nice to have. | 4 |
Nice little kit. | 5 |
Great for my journals and other paper arts | 5 |
This is my main use beading wire, which i use a lot of... it was received quickly and in good working order, so i was very pleased. | 5 |
very satisfied with my purchase. | 5 |
Just what I was looking for to complete a craft project! Drifts is always great quality! Thank you | 5 |
I have used this pad many times already and have enjoyed the finished results using Julie Nutting paper doll stamps. | 5 |
Great basic colors set for embroidery machine work, and didn't cause any problems while using machine. Smooth transaction, no problems. | 5 |
as described ! | 5 |
I am very happy and I love it.
Thank you,
[...] | 5 |
good item and love the quality | 5 |
I agree with other reviewers who complain about not being able to get a clean cut. There's a hanging circle of paper every single time I use it, which is a bummer because it doesn't come off easily and creates an uneven circle. Not great. Otherwise the general feel of it is good quality. | 2 |
they are a must when you are using the Sew ribbon. Makes it alot easier to thread the ribbon through. Very happy with this product made a nice added touch to the christmas cardes I made this year | 5 |
Great lava stones. Feel great and works perfected for all my projects. | 5 |
This is the second time I ordered this product and was sent the original Aleelns glue and not the fast drying. Can't some check what the problem so I can get the two right glue pens in Fast drying. | 5 |
So at first glance I thought this would be a great thing with which to replace my Cameo. After all, on paper it seemed to offer pretty much what the Cameo does but with added functions like embossing, etching, and stippling. Plus I was intrigued by having a dual carriage, so I could have the machine do several things in one pass. Awesome, right?
The reality is that while I do like the Curio very much, for the bread and butter cutting tasks the Cameo is still the hands down winner in my opinion. I like being able to have designs on a USB drive that are accessible from the Cameo's touch screen so I don't even need a computer (the Curio does not offer this kind of capability). So at the end of the day, I really view the Curio as a supplement to the Cameo, but not a replacement.
That isn't to say the Curio is bad, far from it. It of course has better versatility in terms of materials, being able to deep cut leather and foam with the deep cut blade (5 mm thick is your limit though...). I'm not doing really fancy embossing, but for what I did the Curio did what looked like a downright professional job. You are limited by size though, in that the Curio can accept a maximum 8.5 inch by 12 inch cutting surface (which is itself an optional addition..the standard plate is 8.5 by 6...), whereas the Cameo can do 12 inches wide by up to 10 feet long. So again, think "supplement," not "replacement." If you're happy with the Cameo you will likely become frustrated with doing the same tasks on the Curio.
So at the end of the day, the real question is what you want to do. If you already own a Cameo then you're only going to use the Curio for different materials and techniques (really, being able to etch things is marvelous), because for regular cutting it's inferior to the Cameo. If you do NOT already have a Cameo or other Silhouette machine, then the Curio becomes a little more attractive. As for me, well....I think this would be a clear win if it had the larger cutting surface and sheer cutting capabilities of the Cameo. As it is, it offers *extra* capabilities but in terms of cutting I think it's actually going backward from the Cameo. So on the merits it's great...just not as great as it could be. | 4 |
Nice piece of leather. Soft and flexible. | 5 |
These are about as cheaply made as possible. Oh they do the job they're designed for but don't leave one on a project in storage that gets jostled around because those numbers will not be where you left them. 3 stars for bare minimum effort. | 3 |
I ordered this yard for a future project which I haven't started yet. The pattern recommended this particular color and brand so I found it on Amazon. I must say that I've used Red Heart 'Soft" yarn before and have always been pleased with the result so I'm giving this a five star as I did with the yarn that I did use on my other projects. I would recommend it to other crocheters and knitters. | 5 |
Nice colors. | 5 |
Will not use another ruler. | 5 |
I like these simply because you can use the color difference to decide which is your working needle when you have to stop in the middle of your work with half work on each needle. When you do the knit and purl stitches in the same pattern, or other fancy stitches sometimes its hard to tell which way you're going. Suggestion - use the red protector for the 'work from' needle and the blue/green for the 'work to' needle. Other than that, it's good to always put protectors on whenever you have to lay the knitting down or you risk your work sliding off the needle. | 5 |
Very happy with what I received. | 5 |
Great knitting needles. Already made several hats with them. I used a number of different yarns. The needles worked great with all of them | 5 |
I like this stuff I can't stop playing with it. I first ordered the blue kind (forget the brand) and even from Blick it was very expensive and a small amount. This is exactly The same and you get much more, over 1/2 lb! The only difference I can see is a couple minutes set time and this is yellow not blue, and a better deal. Both can go in the oven at lower temps so I'm pleased. | 5 |
Great deal!!!! | 5 |
Good quality and strong. Glad I purchased it. | 5 |
The gathering is cumbersome and will take a lot of practice, practice, PRACTICE before it comes out looking uniform and nice. | 3 |
I've tried to send them a message first as they asked in a description, however, I did not have the option to do so from my order page. Therefore, I'm leaving a feedback without contacting the seller.
Brushes came in in a timely manner which was a good thing. Brushes themselves are ok for a beginner. More coarse than I've expected and not for all time use with watercolor since those don't hold the water and paint that well. After removing protective tubes from bristles I've noticed that some of the bristles stick out at a weird angle (and so far I was unable to reshape those so I could use them).
I did not expect much from these brushes since I've got them on sale and I'll find some kind of use for them but they are not as good quality as a regular price of $29.99 (!!!) would suggest.
If you're looking for a cheap set for a total beginner or kids/grandkids go for it. If you're looking for brushes for the more advanced use you'll probably find set for a similar price that will be better quality. | 2 |
Thanks item as described | 5 |
These looms are so easy to work with; projects just seem to flow! | 5 |
Well, sometimes I get excited and don't read. I definitely thought this zipped on. But for 5 bucks, why would it? Anyway I could have made it easily myself, it's a simple design. But then again, for 5 dollars, why would I bother? I plan to HTV a cute design on it to personalize. :) | 4 |
Nice and different way of make craft | 5 |
The ink colors are excellent, but do have a slow drying time; be careful with smearing. They were almost worth the wait. Only complaint is that the pens don't last long; but for the price I paid at the time..worth it. | 5 |
I luv the idea of retraction on razor knives. There disposable and reasonable priced. Works for me, less band aids I have to purchase. | 5 |
It more than met my expectations. It arrived on time, well packaged and I started using it the next day. Wow! I couldn't be happier. Now I want to buy a smaller one for small projects. | 5 |
This is a great sketch journal. It's not too big, travels well. | 5 |
I'm happy with this water brush bucket I do water coloring and I was going to get the smaller round one but I want to get into acrylic soon so I figured that the smaller one wouldn't be as great and the water would get really dirty really fast so I got this one and I feel like I made the right choice for me I don't have a tone of space and I only need one waterbucket so this is perfect I don't use a tone of brushes so there are more than enough holes for what I do use and what I like most is that I can make three separate places for water so I can make sure my brush is extra clean or I can just have 2 it's all up to you and what u like or need I also like the little palette on the lid I use it with acrylic it's not perfect but it works for me and I can close it when I need to it's not air tight but it will work in a pinch... there were 2 brush holes I had to fix due to a little piece of plastic was hanging over but it was an easy fix all in all I would definitely recommend for people who do large paintings or acrylic or some type of thick paint if you do just small watercolor paintings I'd go with the smaller round one but that's strictly for saving space since this one is roughly about the size of a iPad mini | 5 |
Work great with my Cinch round hole machine. | 5 |
Easy to use. Love the color | 5 |
I would not make a card from this product, but, I use it for stamping my sayings and for my stamps that I paint and put on my cards. I would give this product 5 stars if it were called stamping paper and not cardstock if that makes sense. I do love the product for what I use it for. | 4 |
Perfect product. Works great | 5 |
I am struggling with this. Its really hard to get the glue out. | 1 |
Cannot not rate this item. I gave this as a Christmas Present and will not asked the person I gave it to how they like it, just to rate this item. | 3 |
Design Studio is a "must have" unless you are content just cutting out shapes. DS allows you to weld shapes together and create custom cards, and hundreds of other projects. There is an army of people on the chat at cricut.com that can help with any problem 24/7. Read through the community topics before buying and I bet you will buy it faster! | 5 |
As pictured. | 5 |
Fantastic set. Pencils move smoothly across the paper. | 5 |
I find their lack of a looking mechanism a bit of a handicap. This makes them somewhat awkward to use and the fact that the blade can be inadvertently pushed out of the tool when pushing them into a pocket or sleeve (as I did when I harpooned the back of my hand). I will attest to their being sharp though, as I didn't even feel the wound till I noticed the bleeding. | 3 |
Great markers and pretty colors. | 5 |
These are awesome. I loved them even more when I price shopped at local craft stores. I use them daily. They work better than clothes pins for delicate cycle laundry because they don't snag fragile technical fabrics or open knits. They are much faster than pins for many sewing projects. It also use them for paper crafts and design work. They are smaller and have a stronger grip than wooden clothespins. They have less tension than office supply type bulldog clips and fit in tighter spots. In the kitchen, I use them to close the tops of rolled snack/chips bags. I have started to give them as gifts. | 5 |
I like the way this tool blends ink on my cards and scrapbook pages. It's easy to use. I use it withTim Holtz ink pads. | 5 |
ChiaoGoo needles are some of the best to work with. Bamboo is my needle of choice and these are well made and definitely a knitters dream. | 5 |
little pieces | 3 |
Good quality and weight for sewing or crafts. Nice bright colors I will be ordering more soon. | 5 |
These are exactly what I was looking for, and I will put them to good use. I found two other sets on Amazon that are the same as this one, only they have a quantity of ten. One of the sets costs a dollar less than this one, and the other costs two dollars less. | 4 |
Good quality, good price! | 5 |
This item was used as a prop for a speech and used to show who is in charge of our goals and our success in life. It was perfect because it is small enough to fit any where but yet big enough so a person can see their face. | 5 |
Wonderful product. | 5 |
quickly as shown and described and is to be given with a special kit as a gift.. I HOPE she likes it. | 5 |
I do adult coloring, and I bought one of these for easy access to my pencils, and to easily see the pencil colors. This securely holds all 72 pencils, with a canvas flap that folds over the points. I have compromised fine motor skills. and this is MUCH easier than trying to get them out of the box they came in. I like the way it protects my pencils, too. And I'm not sure you're supposed to do this, but the pencils I'm using for my current pictures I turn upside down, so I can easily see the colors I've used. I have two now, in two different designs, in two places in my house. | 5 |
YKK are great zippers, I use them to make cosmetic zipper pouches as gifts for friends. | 5 |
Sweet little charms, great add to my crafts! | 5 |
Perfect pattern for your first sewing project for Adults or Kids. Its a pretty straight forward pattern and could be done within an hour start to finish. | 4 |
This book is so easy to understand! I was tatting in less than five minutes! The different size needles included with the book are very sturdy and easy to use. Thanks for a great product, and super fast shippihg! | 4 |
well pleased | 5 |
Excellent scent throw! Used in 464 soy wax and worked perfectly. | 5 |
This brush is excellent. I mean really good. It's bigger than my other brushes and I plan on making larger strokes with it. I mean really big. And that will be excellent. | 5 |
super super SMALL will not do very many bars of soap. | 1 |
This product took care of SO MUCH! It organized the majority of my nail products- such as tools,polish,gels etc. Worked exactly as i was hoping. Hooray! Worth the money. AND the latches will STAY ...BUY IT! | 5 |
I was expecting some discoloration of the fabric after using this product, but to my surprise, it works beautifully and leaves no darkening or staining on the treated area of the fabric, unlike clear nail polish and other fray remedies (at least on the fabric for which I used it--bright red cotton twill).
I was having trouble getting through a project with the twill, which frays when you LOOK at it. No more--this stuff works great. My only regret is that I didn't buy the 2-pack.
Very happy. I will definitely buy again! | 5 |
Omnigrid is the best quality for quilters! | 5 |
I us this raffia ribbon to make pine needle baskets. It is strong and works really well. Easy to use. | 5 |
Beautiful and charming | 5 |
Works very well! And I am a novice who had no trouble! | 5 |
What can I say. I got this for adjusting patterns and tracing multiple size patterns that I don't want to cut into. Just right for my needs. Good price. I would purchase again. | 5 |
I will revisit this review once I use the product. I never found time to use them during the Halloween season. | 3 |
Fabulous product. | 5 |
These are fantastic. The three colors are perfect for different color fabric. I keep a wet sponge near, and when I am done with the marks, just a tap with the sponge removes it. I recommend these to all sewers. | 5 |
love this pop up cards design. | 5 |
