This product is pretty much a toy. It shrinks a LOT more than I expected. A full sheet goes down to about 4" x 5". It has a great thickness when done though. Tried the parchment paper top and bottom with a light pan BIG mistake. My sheet came out wavy and wrinkled from sticking to the paper. Tried a plain cookie sheet. DO NOT put the ink side down if you work in the metal, it does stick. When it is done it may be a tiny bit curled on the edges and wavy. I tried pressing with parchment paper over. This left marks on the "front" uncolored "shiny" bottom side. Next I tried the plain pan but again it picked up a texture. Pretty sure pain smooth shiny unwrinkled tin foil should work. After I take it out I immediately smooth it all over with the back of a large metal spoon. This helps to make it lay flat as it cools. BUT in the end the surface will still be a bit wavy on the surface. The smaller you start with and the smaller the finished item the more professional it will look. So as long as you are fine with a bit rustic, slightly bent, distressed finish it is fine. Great for homemade gifts that do not look like they were made in china. In the end more for fun than to make anything with a "professional" look.

I was so excited this spatter tool arrived EARLY on my day off--that never happens! I have a project to finish and was all set up...sadly, the distress splatter brush was in two pieces! It not very expensive and I can still use it--even though I was hopeful of having a nice long handle to help me with my tendency toward messiness--especially during splatter activities--I'm not sending it back, as I stated, it was not very expensive and I can utilize it anyway. I'm just so disappointed it arrived broken where the wood meets the handle.

just what I wanted. Great product
5
These look perfect, and are just the right size.
5
Beading was easier using the longer needles. Great!
5
Bought these for cutting material after my other scissors fell apart. They work great on all types off material. I am happy with the purchases and would recommend them to anyone who wants a good pair of scissors for cutting fabric of all kinds and at a very good price.
5
Have been looking at this binding express for a while now. It is one of those tools that helps when you need it. I am glad I finally bought one.
5
High quality foam that will make excellent indoor or outdoor chair cushions. We're also using commercial grade marine vinyl fabric. You will need a very heavy, sharp knife with at least a 5-6 inch blade to cut this foam, and it requires some time and hard work. We cut it into 15 inch squares using a professional grade skinning knife honed to a very sharp edge. We scored it first using a craft knife to make cutting through easier. Foam will last a long time and is worth any work involved in using it. Highly recommend sellers and foam that is quite a bit cheaper than other brands. I will be buying more as needed from them in the future.

Best threads for sewing my buttons stay on, have not tried it on my machine yet but video by other viewer convince me to buy this, I agree with them good thread
5
works great on cricut
4
Nice case - vibrant colors, and sturdily constructed. Fits most wooden / aluminum / plastic crochet hooks easily. It will not fit hooks with special or ergonomic handles. My wooden hooks work beautifully in this case. It is great for travel as well, because it folds relatively flat.
5
They came quickly and really are very pretty in person! Can't wait to use them.
5
This product does exactly what it says...and you can't not like that! I like that it is heavy enough to hold the cone style of thread while I am sewing.
5
Love it, love it! Amazing colors
5
These tapes are so pretty! They worked very well on copy paper. Kraft paper was a bit of a different story and I was a little disappointed. I am making a special gift for my mother's 60th birthdays and I truly hope the tape doesn't peel off too readily. On copy paper or cardstock, though, these are great tapes!

Great scissors for the price! I use for sewing and fabric and works as well as the higher priced ones~
5
Love these...you can't go wrong with Swarovski brand!
5
Great for personal size planners!
5
Great Shears
5
Like all Superior threads this is THE BEST!
5
The scalloped border really looks great and these can be used in many ways.
5
I got this for a Christmas stocking stuffer. My girlfriend loves it. She says it has all the sizes she needs and the handle are comfortable to grip. She also said she can go faster with these with less pain. lol.
5
The greatest kit for the first embroidery machine purchase.
5
Great colors and fits my machine just fine!
5
this is one of the best strings I have used to make friendship bracelets.
5
Love them, super sparkly and so cute
5
Nail glue works better than this product and I've bought several different kinds of this glue brand. All were not to my expectations and wouldn't recommend. I even used it on a photo to glue to cardboard and it didn't adhere after waiting the proper time for it to cure.

Wow! This stuff really works! I have had stained rubber stamps for years and finally heard about this product and after using it there is such an improvement! I will not say that it removes everything, because it didn't. But... it sure removed a lot! The stamps feel supple again and on some stamps the ink is all gone. Amazing!
5
Absolutely love these.
5
Very small , not much room for mixing colors
3
I've been using these for years. They're scary sharp, they fit tidily in my handiwork bag, and they're just plain, darned cute. But alas, they went missing. Went through every tote bag and drawer in the house to no avail. Really needed my nostalgia fix, so I bit my lip and ordered a replacement pair. I'm so glad I did. Gingher makes excellent quality scissors and shears, period.
5
AWESOME!!!!!!!! Vibrant- BOLD- LOVE IT
5
I've ordered these 8mm Lapis before from Beadnova and they were GREAT!!! But not this time, very dull looking.
2
These are really nice. Ordered a set for myself but gave to my grandchildren. Smooth, rich color.
5
This product does help to hold down the rulers and keep fabrics in place, but I find myself reattaching and tightening one of the suction cups every 20 mins or so. I try adding a little moisture to the suction cup to get it to stay tightly attached. Also, this double ended version can only fit the larger longer rulers, obviously. Have not purchased the single suction cup, but that may be a better product,
3
I got this for my daughter. She loves it and can use her own paint now when she is painting on clothes
5
I don't think I'll place any more orders for these online. And i do believe the old adage of you get what you pay for is proving to be true when it comes to Bali style beads. Poor mixture, poor quality.
1
what I expected....needed to weave the yarn through finished work. easy to thread and smooth to pass through.
5
I bought these for modeling. They work great.
5
I think this thing works very well. You just can't punch out anything heavier than adhesive paper - at least I can't. It will leave an impression with heavier material (I tried laminate), and you could follow the "almost there" cut impressions. But like I said, it works very well, at least for my purpose.

I have knitted a hat and a scarf for my husband with Bernard Softee Chunky. From that I know how fast it knits and and how arm it is. I am going to knit a sweater for me in this color. I find that there are many colors to chose from and I love this color for me. THe color is not too red but a more subtle tone which is better for my complexion. I will often purchase this type of yarn.
5
I like this foot very much. It also fits my Brother embroidery machine, SE400. I haven't used it for quilting, though, but I am sure it will perform to my expectations. I needed one that is open toed so I can see where I am going, esp if there are lines involved.
5
Great product, much easier to use than sew in, and more professional.
5
Graet prize, like the smaller bags Makes a terrific candle
5
Well made briolette shaped glass beads. The selection of colors is great, just as pictured. I only wish there was a way to order specific colors rather than the whole assortment. Either way, they'll be put to good use!
5
I was looking for some basic information on this type of jewelry making and this book completely surprised me by it's depth. Nicely detailed instructions and photos. The projects were interesting and I quite enjoyed making a few of them. Somehow I missed that there were supplies included and that was fabulous. Great introduction to the idea of using Shrink Plastic as jewelry and honestly I can't imagine how it could be improved.
5
I like this for shorter necklace display and photographing them. Will have to order the taller one for longer necklaces. Keep it covered though as its a dust magnet and it will show up on your photographs. But just a damp cloth takes care of it.

My three year old loves these! They are mess free, and super easy to clean up. My daughter and I wrote on our bathroom mirrors, and a huge whiteboard I have yet to put up. She even got it on her clothes, and I was able to get it out. When you first open these, shake them a few times, then press down on the tip a couple of times for the color to come into it. It takes about 30 seconds, and you don't have to press down on the tip really, or very much to get a vivid color. No dripping either. I love the bright colors, and wish they came out with more, with even more colors!!
5
I bought two of these, one for myself and one for a friend. We liked the many wells for our colors and the large area in the center for mixing. But neither of us found this palette to be fully peelable. The few areas where we left thicker globs of paint came up easily enough. All I had to do was gently scrape under an edge with my fingernail and peel. But those areas that did not have thick globs would not budge with gentle prodding. I am unable to comment about sealing the palette. We used acrylic paint, which dried on the palette before we had a chance to even consider saving the expelled paint for later.

A bit tricky to work with but they are okay for the money

This is an absolutely AMAZING machine!!! I've waited several years to buy one and I'm extremely happy with the purchase. I did originally worry that it might be difficult to use, primarily because of all the incredible features it has. I had never used a computerized sewing machine and worried that I might not be able to figure it out, or remember how to do any given task I might have. I worried needlessly. This machine is very user friendly and quite intuitive. When you turn it off, it resets to the originally settings, which is great, or you can actually save settings for future use if you want. Everything you could want to do is literally only a few taps of your finger away. The menus are easy to navigate and are not confusing at all. It is as close to "point and click" as you can possibly get. The sewing machine comes with a hard copy users manual that is comprehensive, easy to read and easy to understand. When I get more into the embroidery side, I'm sure it will be just as easy to use as the standard sewing features. The ability to connect to my computer and create my own embroidery patterns (with a separate software purchase which I will invest in very soon) is something I'm greatly looking forward to. I will be able to utilize my love of photography with creating embroidery patterns for custom use. Kudos to Bother for providing us with such an awesome tool of the trade!

very large- damn near size of a babies head but seams to be of good quality
5
Was recommended for use by a quilter. Helped in stabilizing light-weight fabric when embellishing applique quilt designs. Would recommend to friends.
5
Perfect for stringing beads.
5
Great transaction but the hooks are horrible.
2
I love this yarn. It is soft and thick and makes a beautiful scarf. The color is neutral, yet lovely. Good for a man or a woman.
5
Very nice, high quality set of grid squares. Nothing else to say. They are great.
5
Perfect for my bead working.
5
Needed replacement pads for my Big Shot Machine and they work just fine...will buy more when I need them again,
5
Great for Christmas decorations.
5
Always good art paper. These are heavy and nice.
5
Really nice colors
4
I have purchased this in several different colors for quilt backs. The quality is great for a wonderful price. Keep it coming!
5
This is a great tool for all stampers!! I use mine every time I make cards, especially if I'm making multiples of same card. Guarantees perfect placement and the ability to restamp if necessary.
5
At first I wasn't sure I wanted to get a walking foot. I am so glad I did. My second quilt came out so much nicer than my first.
5
The box was as described and what I needed. Good price. The floss bobbins were made of a paper-seeming material, not cardstock. Tossed them. Had some leftover DMC floss bobbins. Will buy more of those.
4
Red glitter with red sand filler.
4
I really like it. Lightweight, Inches on one side, cm on the other. The tape measure is accurate. Also it's pink, what more is there to say? :)
5
These work really well to make a nice hexafish bracelet. I did remove one star because there are no instructions and I couldn't even find the web-site. However there is a video on uTube that explains it quite well. The only difficulty with this loom is the fact you have to take one band and figure 8 it around each peg and boy does that stretch things out. My first one went on ok, but I can see where it would be so easy to break a band doing this. Still, for what it is good for, it works well and I'm glad I purchased it. I found the plastic in and of itself to be very sturdy and according to the price one reviewer said they paid, the price has been drastically reduced. I purchased two of them for $6.99, well worth it.

These are wonderful! I can put my knitting down and not have to worry about the stitching falling off the needle. Just make sure you get the right size. The small ones work for everything I'm doing at the moment. Double-check what size needles they can be used with before you buy! I've been using 4.5-7mm needles lately and these are working great for them.
5
Nice canvases. Im going to gesso the one that I am hanging, But that is only because I want it to last a long time. Many years. Otherwise the canvas is prepared. Enjoy
5
Good quilting gloves. If only I were a better free motion quilter.
4
Great paper, good variety. Can't beat the price.
5
thread is so very fine I had to learn what size needle and what material I could use it on, now that I know it is so nice to have the color choices that I have.
5
I put this on my plastic bins, it look so pretty.
5
I am very pleased with the quality of these earring findings. I'm happy with my purchase.
5
Thank you I love you I'll buy again
5
Great price and nice variety of colors.
5
Disappointed, big eye apparently prevents top thread from grabbing bobbin thread - it like you are trying to Sew without any bobbin thread in the machine! I'm hoping they might work in one of my other machines, if not, I'll just toss them.
2
If you are going to own a sewing machine this is a necessity. I don't know why that is but it's an unspoken rule of some sort. Works well enough and I don't poke my finger like i would if I kept my pins in a jar.
5
I painted a chart of GraceArt watercolor probably about a month ago on heavy weight archival white paper. No residual lifts on fingers or cloth. This is a nice set for sketchbook or quick washes. They wet easy with a spray bottle. I paid about $12 as well, proud to own it.
5
Beautiful luster and the colors are great for spring
5
i bought this for my 2 year old to make my husband for fathers day and she loved doing it. i put it on a paper plate and gave her a few brushed for the colors, cause it only comes with one brush. i put her in a old t shirt cause the paint does stain. i cut off 3 colors cause shes 2 and loves to mix colors to make brown lol. she had a blast doing this. i think its a great rainy day project for a kid who loves to paint. it makes a cute gift to give some one or put it in ur garden or a paper weight. also when she was done i glued some googlie eyes on it and it looks great
5
Such a beautiful package with very good quality needles. A real treat to use.
5
The package is smaller than it appears in the picture. There may be 3000 beads but they are very tiny seed bead sized beads. I have not used them yet, so I do not know how well they hold the crimp. I was expecting a 2 mm bead so these may be too small for what I need.
3
Absolutely awesome foot collection! I've used a ton of these. Definitely worth the price if you're a serious seamstress! Fits my low shank basic Singer.
5
I haven't used these in a project yet, but they seem ok. They're quite thin and may be a bit flimsy, but I think they'll work fine and the price was right.
3
It is just amazing!!!!
5
Needles can be made of prettier materials, I suppose, but all things considered, nothing beats clean, smooth, sensible stainless double points. HiyaHiya's double points are considerably less costly than their German made Addi competitor, but in other ways that I can see, no different. The lazer printed sizes are very nice, but they rub off after not many hours of use.
5
Lovely shades of yellow. My son and I use them to color flowers. He loves Copics but, being seven, only uses them with direct supervision. Worth the price.
4
It's wonderful!
5
work phenomenally and doesn't discolor paper if used with that for pendants
5
It is very accurate and has 1/4" markings.
5
I was very disappointed in the yarn that they use. I was missing a color and had to email to get it sent to me. Some strands of yarn are very thin and the fray very easy. They say they have quality control but I doubt it.

This is spefically for the one skein that I bought which is called Apple Orchards. This yarn is seriously gorgeous. It's extremly soft and the colors are beautiful. This is easily the most lovely yarn to work with in my experience because your needle will just glide through it. It has a satin feel to it just as described. The changes in color within the yarn are subtle and do not produce stark stripes as seen with other yarns- at least with a granny square or a circle. Image attached. Please ignore the 'jumps' on the left, that is me accidentally and quite stupidity using dc to make a circle with multicolored yarn. But you can see how beautiful it looks. Like another user mentioned, I too found that the yarn does stick to itself and when ripping out stitches you have to tug and it can be hard not to cause the yarn to fuzz up. See image. For this reason it lost a star. I can confirm that it is indeed a worsted weight yarn (4). Edit: this actually feels more like Aran weight yarn. It is also true as some users have indicated, that the thickness varies but for me it doesn't seem to spoil the end result. It also has a slight fuzz to it although stitch patterns are very clear regardless. The fuzz does not get in the way at all. However you have to think carefully about what you plan to make with it- particularly with this colorway. It's very dramatic and has a visible sheen to it. It is not matte as it appears to be in pictures or even when you look at the skein in real life. Once it is worked up the shine really shows. The colors are very, very vivid. I cannot stress this enough. They are jewel tones rather than thoes found in nature and are very intense. It's absolutely stunning but personally I don't see myself wearing anything made with it, not even a scarf. Perhaps it would work for an afgan or even a fun sweater for a toddler. Edit: I am making a yarn bag with it and am waiting for more yarn to finish it. I have included an image of it so far. It has white yarn in it, hence the white holes This yarn is lovely so I will probably try a more suble color way for a scarf or hat. In a nutshell I recommend this yarn as a true treat! Just don't keep changing your mind about the project ( which I do a lot) because ripping out will ruin the yarn.
4
This keeps my yarn from getting tangled and i can see how much is left. It is also easier to carry around than those bags that have numerous compartments that I only use when I am using multiple yarns but even so, I'd rather have two or three snapwares. It also accomodates the newer scarf yarn
5
Nice and soft. I made a very pretty scarf.
5
I like the master line. I have two. They aren't something like a Paashe or Iawata that will last a life time but for the price these are a great started brush. Especially if you are not sure about investing in a full set up. These give decent control and feel like a reasonably well made product. I think the tip got clogged a litter quicker, but not a big issue. getting the three sized tips and needles helps you cover all the bases. The book that comes with it is nothing more than a pamphlet and a waste.
4
Loved that the beads were already in a container
5
Works great! cheaper than versamark
