Although it is 3/4 inch length, it is convenient to use with a small or medium size beads. So, I do not waste a lot of metal. The price is lower a lot than the same product I get in the craft store. | 5 |
I am always pleased with their fabrics. Fast mailing and great service. | 5 |
I've been searching online and looking in stores for material to use as backing for a quilt I'm making. I wanted 50-60" width so that narrowed my choices. Bought something else before this one and was very disappointed in how thin it was. I was so pleasantly surprised with this material. Good width and weight and will work perfect as a backing for my patriot quilt. I would buy from this company again | 5 |
This brush only lasted through one model kit. I was not impressed one bit. Most of the hair has fallen out. I have a $4.00 chinese knock off that is way better than this. Would not recommend. | 1 |
There are so many tools included in this kit that they really don't have a place for everything. They really should have a larger case to hold all of the tools. They do work well for handing beads and doing beading. | 4 |
Very sharp scissors that are best with embroidery machines for snipping loose threads | 5 |
Love these for my craft table and gifts! | 5 |
I needed more of this yarn to finish an afghan and could not find it in stores. It was priced too high, but is good quality yarn. | 4 |
Always wanted one of these for my hobbies. Love it. Every tool and blade I could ever want. They're sharp too. | 5 |
Good to use. | 4 |
This is good blending solution to use with the Alcohol Inks. One can get beautiful blending results when this is mixed on cardstock paper or the Gloss finish paper. Works best on the gloss finish I think. Is not good on photo paper. One can make beautiful back ground to start a project when used with Alcohol Inks. | 5 |
Honestly there are a million and one uses for this stuff. Perfect for epoxy inlays. | 5 |
The light-weight of this easel kind of makes it a little more difficult for ME to use for painting. However, the quality of this item is nice and it is easy to get it back into its carrying sleeve. It would be absolutely perfect if just using it for a presentation stand. I only gave it 3 stars, simply because it does not fill my need. | 3 |
Great Price, fast delivery | 5 |
FABULOUS!!!! PERFECT!! Couldn't be better!!! Highly recommend to EVERYONE!!! | 5 |
Good quality product | 5 |
This is an all-around good yarn for a variety of projects. I used this to make a sweater worked flat and seamed. If I were to make the same pattern again I think I would use a different yarn because this one makes a very thick fabric that can be too hot. This sweater ended up being something I only wear when it is the coldest part of the winter because of the thickness. In addition, I found that while it is not pilling or shedding, some of the strands of fiber are coming loose in the dryer (my fault for drying it on high) and it kinda looks a little hairy. I do not recommend drying unless you have the time to dry on low heat. It did not shrink at all.
It is very soft and would be a great choice for making accessories such as hats, gloves, leg warmers, or scarves. I plan on making an eggplant hat out of this for a toddler in the coming weeks. As far as this particular color goes- I eventually became bored of the gray when working on the sweater and would not pick this again. My favorite color so far has been the teal, which made a really beautiful cabled hat for my sister last year. | 4 |
I wanted to dye a canvas bag I had dark green and this did the trick. It came out a decent dark green without too much trouble. Color was accurate compared to some other shades I've tried. | 5 |
Fast shipping. I overall happy with this purchase | 5 |
I bought this to use on felts. They turned out to be a little smaller than I thought but still very pretty to use. When I bought it it came with a small bag of "gift" rhinestones. Honestly, I think I like the gifts better than the main ones. | 5 |
I received these keys in a timely manner and was happy with my purchase. The only thing they could do, is find a better way to attach the keys to the cardboard. I soaked them in water for a while and was able to rub the stuck on paper off. Ater that, they were ready to use and just what I wanted. | 5 |
Wonderful brush pen. Worth the price. Definitely a new personsl favorite. Very versatile. Useful for lettering, of course, but also very effective for drawing and sketching. You can do a lot with this one pen. Plus, it lasts. | 5 |
Fell apart. Returned it. | 1 |
Took longer thank I wanted, but the pieces are gorgeous! | 5 |
Small embossing folder. Cute and detailed. | 4 |
Nice selection for price. Great for craft projects or sewing patches on boy scout uniforms. | 4 |
I hate making separate reviews, I wish I could just have beads, books, games, and other products all together in their separate groups. I am too ill to keep writing separate reviews.
I love this product! | 5 |
The only blades I use in my Cricut Explore Air2. I use the deep cut blades for intricate cuts. Works great. | 5 |
Very very disappointing. Product probably asleep because silicone dry. | 2 |
Three each of the Bernat Viva Rust, Black and Violet as well as Denim and Teal were Xmas gifts from DIL. The scarves on the wrappers were simply too boring/faddish to even consider. I wondered what possessed her to buy these for me. So, I started by trying to use three by themselves as a growing granny square with black between each color change using the mosaic or block stitch. Too muddy. Ripped most of it out but left enough for a pillow top, then went with my favorite afghan to make, a round ripple.
After a week of mostly crocheting and very little housework, it has become (I think) a beautiful 12-point round ripple crochet afghan with this rust, black and violet as well as solid color yarns from my yarn stash Red Heart Super Saver Black, Carrot and Claret, Red Heart with Love Lilac, and Caron One Pound Deep Violet. The solids I held two strands together to equal the super bulky Viva.
An M hook and HDC created the drape without being holey as DC stitch. I stitched various widths of rounds and various placement of hook for different effects, such as stitching through back and third loop to create piping, V-stitches, front and back post and last round had an additional slip stitch to give sturdiness to the edge.
I designed this for DIL as the colors are in her preference (although I like it, too), but I will get to visit it occasionally. I'll be finishing up my notes so I can recreate it or one in another colorway. See photo of afghan draped on a love seat size couch. | 5 |
They are Albrecht Durer - what's NOT to love?? Having owned several brands of watercolor pencils, I can say I don't even touch them since I received these. Why?
1. The pencils blend very well, especially on watercolor paper.
2. Control of of color result when blending is virtually flawless:
a) no irregular pigmentation;
b) no need to scrub work area to avoid watermarks;
c) no product / color bloom when layering for effect (unless applying too much pressure and damaging tooth of paper) and;
c) for smaller work areas, I even prefer them over tube / cake watercolor.
3. The pencils can be sharpened from beginning to end WITHOUT ANY LEAD BREAKAGE at all.
4. Nice tin keeps everything ordered and makes for nice storage when working other art projects.
5. Hexagonal shape prevents rolling when setting them aside for later use on your work. Especially helpful if your work area also includes brush holder, water glasses / jars, watercolor palette, painting cloths and such with each project.
7. Superb for dry-on-wet highlighting and detailing on watercolor work.
8. Every color is also available for purchase as an individual pencil should any need to be replaced.
I'm sure there are a lot more reasons why I'll love these as I use them but I've shared the most noticeable thus far. As for whether or not the purchase is right for you, some other things to keep in mind:
1. These are professional artists' quality watercolor pencils and the price reflects that.
2. Though they may be used on adult coloring books, there are many types and brands of pencils more suited for the pages. However, if the objective is to activate the color for a watercolor look, these are a great choice. I use them in my coloring book so I may practice watercolor techniques. | 5 |
Needles aren't as smooth as their straight needles | 3 |
It is a Tim Holtz Distress Ink pad. It was exactly what I expected and worked as the other pads I had did. It was a good value because of the price I paid. | 4 |
Just as good as Clover, IMHO... | 5 |
I have been looking everywhere for this color. Shipping was very fast. I am very grateful and satisfied! | 5 |
Nice big spool, feeds thru mackine without any problems...bought the white too....keep both the black and white near the machine along with
a good supply of prewound black and white bobbins for quilt piecing...One color or the other usually works. Gray would be a nice addition in
this size. | 5 |
Even though they are student grade watercolor paint, they do a decent job and the travel palettes are a good size. The water holder is useless however, they should have just put in another pan of color or a sponge would have been more useful. | 4 |
great heat transfer | 5 |
using it for a quilt as this thread brand is always up to any job. | 5 |
This bag is kind of strange. For one things it's made out of that new "canvas" material. It's basically made out of plastic and not cotton like real canvas is. It's definitely not going to be indestructible and pretty much offers zero protection for your Cricut. I'm not sure why they call this material canvas when it's not. I bought this to store and use daily. I don't leave home with my Cricut, but I don't have a craft room or work station area. When I want to use my Cricut I have to just pick a spot in the house. This just helps for when I'm finished to have a handle to move it easily around and to protect somewhat from dust. It doesn't close all the way at the top which is really bizarre. It makes getting the machine out easy but I think they still could have made it so it closes all the way. Padding would have been nice. It has 3 pockets on the outside which are ok, they are not pleated so they can't be stuffed, they sit flush against the bag so it's hard to even fit the power cord in. I feel like it will not last and I'm betting it will rip pretty soon. Hopefully it holds up though. If you are using this to travel be SUPER careful. I'd really suggest something of higher quality if that's the case though. | 3 |
This is a perfect organizer for knitting notions. It is large enough to hold most of my knitting tools including shorter DPNs. The clear plastic compartments make it easy to see and find what I need at the moment. | 5 |
The item was shipped and received very quickly ... the feathers are soft and beautiful, but the reason for the average review is because they are smaller and thinner than expected. All were 10 inches if you stretch them straight, but not as thick and voluminous as they appear in the photo. | 3 |
I have several different brands of colored pencils that span both price and quality. Each brand has its ow characteristics and is useful for certain effects. This Artist Choice set too has a special quality that no other set, no matter how pricey, has. These pencils lay down lovely controllable transparent color that is wonderful for creating delicate glowing effects. After reading through Tabbitha Barnett's excellent tutorial on gemlike shading with colored pencils, I adapted her unique method to color the accompanying page from Colorama's "Magic Path" coloring book using these pencils for everything except the veins of the leaves which were done with an olive green pen from the Artist Choice gel pen set which provides the intense solid colors to define and accent the exquisite soft colors these pencils can create. I was not provided a sample or a discount for writing this review. I just very much like the unique effect that these pencils can create. | 5 |
totally awesome idea. takes a bit to learn but well worth it and price is great. | 5 |
I am so happy with these folders. They are very thick and great quality. The designs are so cute. You can't go wrong with me &my BIG ideas. Love their products. | 5 |
exactly as i suspected, aha...a lil zip bag of what i assume is a thousand crimps. no, i dinna count em. these lil buggers are so handy in lots of applications | 5 |
Very useful | 5 |
Easy to use bamboo needles. | 4 |
I received it but can't say one way or the other as I have lost it. | 4 |
Exactly as advertised. Shipped Fast! | 5 |
For media art - just great designs to create with! | 5 |
What an excellent way to start stamping with your nieces at the ages of 6 and 10! They had so much fun and it was easy for us all to use. We were so pleased that we purchased more ink and the Elegant Vine, the flowers and summer wings stamps. No more rubber stamps for me! Fiskars continues to surprise me with their quality products. | 5 |
thes bead are gorgious and lots of different colors but also plenty of two of a kinds so great for earrings the only thing I was not exspecting was for the two toned part to be like almost painted on but they look really pretty anyways | 4 |
Gets the job done! | 5 |
works as needed | 3 |
If you use the decorative strip dies, you could use a regular XL pair, or, along with the XL platform, these cutting pads make a great sandwich, and do a nice job cutting the intricate details. My only (minor) complaint? The solo shim doesn't come in this size-- that is a little awkward (but worth doing, for sure). | 5 |
These are great for the price. I find they work best by spraying the area u want to color with a met of water rather than dunking the tips in water. | 3 |
I asked question about these canvasses, but the seller got offended, my question was--how these are comparing to Artist loft I used previously, my opinion the canvasses are thinner than the lofts, and not tight at lofts, when u push with finger--it stays like that, on the other hand these have smoother surface, I guess--I will stick with loft, the price would be 1/3 of these Arteza, also these are made in India. | 3 |
Great size but it didn't last very long....tip split despite reshaping when wet. | 3 |
This is the worst imitation of sinew I have ever had to work with. It does not pull apart as sinew or imitation sinew should instead it is only waxed string colored in a too dark brown to be natural color. Very very disappointed in this string! I would return it and I would not write a negative review but I don't want anyone else getting this product and ending up with this product when they are expecting something else....... as for the seller, everything was on time and packaged nicely, no problems there! If you want imitation sinew, DO NOT buy this!!! | 1 |
The entire Prismacolor series has not yet dissapointed me... you will read many people who call themselves "professional artists" say that Prismacolor is a beginners set of markers and brands like Copic are better in all aspects. I have both brands and the Copic marker set I have is already starting to kick the bucket after about 10 drawings... my prismacolor markers are still going strong. The markers have double ends which is great for finer details (although I almost wish the fine point side was slightly finer) and also great for large areas you want the same color. I would reccommend these colors to any academic or mid-level artist who is on a relatively low budget. These markers have lasted me about 10 full color drawings so far and the only one that is starting to struggle is the black one (they should probably include 2-3 black markers in the set and then it would be perfect). But for under $70, this is a great set that you can count on and produce great artwork with it. I am giving this 5 stars, not because they are the "best" markers out there, but because they are the best value for the quality they are capable of producing.
I say go for it! Let your imagination run wild! | 5 |
As expected, and quick turn around. Thank you. | 4 |
Red Heart Super Saver is great for amigurumi (toys) and afghans. Personally I prefer wool for wearable items, but I have used RHSS to make things for people that were allergic to wool on occasion. RHSS is my go-to yarn for acrylic. Amazon sells it at the same price as my local stores; so, considering gas, it saves me money to buy it using prime shipping. Amazon also has a much better color selection.
Some things to keep in mind:
Yarn that is made at different times, will be slightly different colors. That's just the nature of yarn. To avoid having a visible place where you joined a new skein, you can alternate skeins when you join a new one - do a few rows with the first skein, then a few rows with the second, for awhile.
All monitors are different, so there's no way to show you a 100% accurate picture of the colors of yarn. Amazon's colors are quite accurate on my screen, though.
This is a worsted weight yarn, but it's on the thicker side of worsted weight, more like aran weight. This is what makes it great for amigurumi, in my opinion, since those need to be dense. But if you're making something that needs to be a specific size, check your gauge first. Some colors of RHSS are thinner than others, so again, check your gauge.
If it's splitting a lot, you may be pulling the yarn in the wrong direction. RHSS is wound to be pulled from the center. On the label, it has an "A" and a "B" with arrows. On the side labeled "A", make sure the outside strand of the yarn is out of the skein. Sometimes it's worked its way out before the yarn gets to you, but you may have to pull it out. On the side labeled "B", you need to find the other end of the yarn that's in the center of the skein. Pull that out, and knit/crochet from that side. If you did that and it's still splitting a lot, it's possible the label came off somewhere along the way and was put back on upside-down - try putting the center strand back in the middle, and pulling it out through the other end.
The multi colored skeins are smaller (in amount of yarn) than the solid colored skeins.
RHSS is a bit course/stiff at first, but it softens up nicely after a wash.
If you keep these things in mind, you'll have a great experience with Red Heart Super Saver! | 5 |
I had a smaller craft sheet, doesn't work well for 'messy me'. This new larger craft sheet is just the job for when I get messy making splatters and flinging paint! | 5 |
fast delivery. item as described | 5 |
Super easy to install ! Surges like butta ! | 5 |
Great product1 | 5 |
Beautiful colors and easy to use. Good service...I will buy from this seller again. | 5 |
Is this top-of-the-line paper? Perhaps not, but it definitely is good quality for the price. If you want amazing paper, you're going to pay an amazing price. This does hold up to a surprising amount of rework without pilling.
I occasionally sell my work, and having ready-cut pieces of paper allow me to produce work for sale easily. It's also affordable so I can produce in-quantity without tying up a lot of money in supplies for something that may or may not sell. | 5 |
These are great snips! Like the slight curve! | 5 |
I chose this sewing machine after a lot of comparisons to other much more expensive machines. I really only wanted something that would do free motion quilting & the PQ1500s does not disappoint. I had it set up & using it the night it arrived. I do find the needle threader hard to use & it was cutting the thread; maybe I just need more practice. Also speed control would have been a nice feature, but again I'm sure I will get used to that too. The stitches are great & I had no problems with the bobbin. I hope to take my quilting to another level with this machine! | 4 |
Clover hooks are the best. | 5 |
Arrived very quickly and it is so cute. It will make a great gift for any animal lover. | 5 |
Very high quality and beautiful patch. | 5 |
It scratches your rings too much. | 2 |
When I first got the nippers they would not snip at all. After I bent a prong on them they snip well. Worth the small amount of money for sure. | 4 |
I love having these containers for needles. It's easy to get them in and out - and I have them in different drawers throughout the house so I can always lay my hands on one. | 4 |
Perfect to make crisp corners | 5 |
Very sharp. Works great! | 5 |
I use these to knit socks two at a time on two circular needles. The joins are really smooth---better than some expensive German needles I have bough in the past and the cables are pretty flexible. I have used this brand for quite awhile, and they seem to hold up well. Since the cables are actual metal cables coated with plastic, they don't seem to break down and become rough at the point where they join the needles and cause snags, like some circs do. The points are pretty pointy, too, which makes decreasing, etc. easier. | 5 |
We bought this paper to make a Doc McStuffins scrapbook for our three year old. We always make a scrapbook of her birthday. This year we found it hard to find Doc merchandise. But Amazon hooked us up! We bought this paper and the book and the stickers of Doc - all on budget. The paper is not super thick, but thick enough. We do the 8 x 11 books to keep cost down - so these papers had to be trimmed. It was easy with all the patterns to use the best papers. I love the variations so I could use the trimmed papers to stack on the pages. The colors go from hot pink to a light blue. There are abstract papers and papers full of whimsical flowers. I do believe there is enough paper for me to do two scrapbooks. The paper pack came on time and was packaged well. I am happy with this purchase and recommend this paper. | 5 |
This is the best price I have found for this brand of yarn. Also arrived very quickly. Just what I needed. Thanks. | 5 |
Very simple to use and a lot easier then cutting stabilizers! I will never by uncut again. Made my project so much faster | 5 |
Cheap imitation of the real thing. Doesn't work at all on light knits. Waste of money. | 1 |
I have started to make my own home care body products in order to avoid anything toxic to my body. The beeswax is used in some of my body lotions. I love the pellets. They are nice and small and easy to melt for my purpose. Will def. order again. It arrived fast and well packaged. | 5 |
This works awesome.. | 5 |
Works well with Derwent Inktense, which, if you haven't tried, you should - love them because once laid down, the ink doesn't move around when worked over. | 4 |
I've been scrapbooking since 2002. I love EK Tools! I've been burned so many times with Fiskars and don't get me started with the crap that is "Martha Steward" punches, but EK seems to make great quality items. These work with card-stock and construction paper. | 5 |
Wasn't planing on buying this ( my favorite 1-click button for ordering got hit by mistake) but thought I'd give it a try since it was coming. it is everything I wanted and I'm SO glad this mold came my way! very happy!!! | 5 |
you can't like what you do get | 1 |
3mm stamp is a pretty small stamp for this design. It's hard to get the imprint right to look like it should. Takes multiple try to get exactly right but works out in the end. Be cautious of that metal & gauge you are stamping before purchasing. | 4 |
love this green, very dark with a lot of blue | 5 |
Perfect - just what I needed to attach jewelry to chains. | 5 |
Exactly what I wanted. | 5 |
I was given this ruler as a gift from my friends. I have so much trouble cutting straight lines even single layers. When I received this ruler I was amazed how easy it is to use and how straight my lines are for quilting. My projects look much better than before. It can cut pretty much any size if you mark it and use the ruler to cut it. Very pleased with this product. I highly recommend it to anyone who has trouble cutting straight lines. Thanks June Tailor and Jay and Cynthia. | 5 |
Very handy set of rulers! Clear, accurate lines that are easy to see and use. Especially helpful if making scrappy quilts with leftover varying size strips of fabric. Price very reasonable in comparison with other rulers. | 5 |
These are great for body waxing in large areas such as legs. I use wooden coffee stirrers for smaller areas such as eyebrows. Never waste money on buying "waxing sticks" from a beauty supply store because it is much more expensive for a much smaller quantity of the same exact thing. | 5 |
great. | 5 |
All arrived in working order, shiny and pretty. Will order again for making keychains | 5 |
I loved the Brights package of these pens and so ordered these. The colors are rather muddy. The greens were especially disappointing. | 3 |
