Perfect for my usage with my cricut! Great value too
5
Such a great price! I got these for my family so we could carve pumpkins! SO FUN! And these are so much better than those little craptastic plastic things you get at the store. Definitely worth purchasing as we will be able to use these for years to come.
5
This book will fit in the slots for the Becky Higgins pages. Also, I didn't know this before ordering but you get several pages of each design. I like that so I can use them more than in one place.

Great product and I love using it
5
not what i needed
1
Great little rhinestones, can't beat the price. Would buy again.
5
fantastic product. great price. extremely thin and portable. very bright. size is wonderful.
5
This is a really great winder for the price. I was able to wind 5oz on it. I love the cakes that it makes! They are easy to store and the center pull without knots really makes the crochet process flow smoothly.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this yarn! I have used tons of yarns to crochet a ton of project, and this yarn is exceptional, especially for the price. Oh, and the colors, just spectacular!! So far I have used "peaceful earth", "restful rainbow", and "mindful mauve". They are all beautiful. I just love how the rainbow yarn isn't that bright "kid" rainbow, but rather just as it is called a "restful" rainbow. Peaceful earth is a beautiful combination of neutral, earthy colors. While mindful mauve, my favorite one, by far. Beautiful shades of purples and greys. In addition to having beautiful colors, this yarn really makes a project stand out. Normally I am not a fan of textured yarns, but this one is different. Perfect mix of cotton and acrylic. This yarn can be difficult to get started with and the texture can make it difficult to see in the stitches, so I wouldn't recommend for a beginner crochet or knitter. Also, I have only used this for crochet, so not sure how it knits up. Yarn can stick a bit when frogging, but no where near as much as some other yarns I have used. I would recommend steam blocking this yarn. I know most people say you can't block acrylic, but actually steam blocks it wonderfully. Really opens up the stitches and give a great drape. As far as price goes, price on here is very comparable to at any store. Definitely recommend this yarn!!
5
the perfect answer to getting tiny snaps to stay on the fabric long enough to get a needle and thread in place.
5
Great fun for all kinds of projects -creates an industrial look on most materials.
5
Prints nice and precise.
5
These are a little hard to adjust to but my arthritic hand didn't get sore using them! Vibrant colors & nice case.
5
If you expose this to a black light it does glow, but if you just paint it, shine a light on it, and turn off the lights after 30+ minutes of exposure, you will not get any kind of recognizable glow. The price is right, but it is not very effective for some of the uses I had in mind.
2
The springs get stuck when I press down and it doesn't give the whole design. I have to manually lift the handle up for it to release the paper. This must be a used item. My lost of money and anticipated project.
1
I can't believe what a difference a slightly bent tip makes! This is a must have for weavers, knitters, and crocheters. This tip isn't very sharp, and each needle is about 2.75" long. These are good quality and very strong. Definitely recommend these!
5
Great cutters fir working with polymer clay. I like that there is a spring loaded push mechanism that pushes out the clay after you cut it. I like the different shapes that came in the order.
5
i love this product, I had purchased bamboo desk organizers, but had not been comfortable with any brush holders I was seeing, now my favorite brushes are in order and ready to go....it is heavy, so you don't need to worry about it being flimsy and all your brushes landing all over the place,,,,it is wonderful...it is made out of three solid pieces of wood, with different size holes for the brushes to go into... If you have a brush holder you like GREAT! But if you don't this one should fit the bill , I love it!
5
Horrible product wouldnt recommend nor purchase again
1
WOW embossing powder is great, melts evenly and smoothly. When you see YouTube instructions to "Make Your Own Embossing Powder", this is the base for making your own colors.
5
I used this and the Nag Champa scent to make my first candles at home and they smell wonderful. A little goes a long way so it's a great value.
5
I finally took the plunge and ordered the big bottle. I have always used the smaller version, but since my local Michaels stopped carrying Lisa P.'s line, I have no choice. I have been using her product for a few years now, but have never tried to make a cachabon with it. I always use it in my glass works. I have tried with polymer clay, but I always run into it pulling away from the edge. I am always trying new things with this product, because it's a UV resin and I don't have to worry about mixing or waiting for hours for it to cure. I did try making something that was a deep mold and it didn't work out to well, but I am sure if I gave it more time, it may have been successful or using true UV light from the sun, may have been more effective, But this is not a fault of the product, it's all user error. I have tried different UV brands and Lisa's wins hands down. It's not as smelly, it has very little to no shrinkage and if you are using it to dome, it cures to a nice solid finish. Others cure in less than a minute and leave a ripple texture on the dome.

I have used the same brand of crochet hooks in and off for decades, but wanted to try these because I thought that being ergonomic, they might be more comfortable during long periods of crocheting. The physical design is completely different from the ones I've always used, starting with the very tip. It's very thick and wide, which meant that my stitches were looser than I'm used to. I was using the smallest gauge hook, and it just wasn't working with the filet thread, I was trying to do single crochets with filet thread for a small treasure bag, but the stitches were so loose the bag would have been useless. When I tried a bigger hook with average size yarn, I found that because of the depth of the solid metal between the tip of the hook down into the curve, the yarn kept slipping out of the curve. The hooks are also much narrower/pointier on the end, which meant I consistently split the yarn. I tried them several different times of the day to see if being more or less tired with making a difference, but I always had the same problems -- splitting yarn, and the yarn sliding out from the hooks. The only way I could have continued to use them is if I were willing to crochet extremely slowly, which I'm not, it's just not worth it. Perhaps if someone is just learning how to crochet and isn't used to another brand they might be OK with these, but they absolutely didn't work for me and I'm returning them. I normally read reviews before I buy a product, but I didn't with these and I wish I had.
1
Blade cut nice, but this product feel apart pretty easy. I used it to cut small appliqu pieces of fabric and it just feel apart in my hand one day after I would say a few hours of use.
2
Works like charm, recommend to anyone who knit, make your project fun and easy
5
The mats are actually better than they seem. They work very well and holds the paper just fine. I do, however, use a rubber ink roller (brayer) over my paper to secure the paper/cardstock better. ( I do this when I use my other cutting machines too.) I just think it works for me. I just love this machine (ScanNCut 2!!!).
5
Tears easily, easy to apply, great adhesive for all of us scrap booking crafters and paper crafting artists. I use all three sizes.
5
This is a nice, small mat that's perfect for small sewing or craft projects. I purchased this to store inside a standard sewing basket, and it fits nicely. Good piece if you live in a place where storage is at a minimum. Saves your countertops!
4
These work great with my old machine from the 70s. They held up sewing denim and oilcloth.
5
I use these for embossing card stock with my CuttleBug and they work fabulously! They make a very nice impression and are fun for my daughter to use as well. I would definitely recommend them.
5
Love these different books.
5
It works as oit is suppsed to do. It needs a better seal on the container. The seal had partially come open whenI receided it.
4
This will be a very helpful ruler to have.
5
Beware that I have no experience to compare this to, but I'm very happy as a first time user. I was a little concerned with the high viscosity of the fluid. I didn't have much more confidence when I started to mix it in with the colors I chose for glazing. That being said, it delivered well and I was able to lay down nice thin glazes of color onto acrylic portraits using both Golden Open paints and Winsor acrylic paints. It feels like the bottle should last forever (8 oz was a bigger bottle than I was expecting), but I like the product so much I'm using it on lots of other projects besides the portrait work. Highly recommended. At least until I get around to trying something else.

I have a hard time aligning the box's lids to close.

I love the standard and traditional crochet hook. So this it was a great fit for me to have given that mist manufacturers are into large, ergonomic hooks. The crochet hooks are made of sturdy metal that is colored to help distinguish them from one another. I like that there were no small hooks with the same color or large hooks with the same color which helps with figuring out the size of the hook. I also like that it came in a nice plastic case to organize organize them. And the plastic case is able to be folded to insert into this stylish cloth carrying container provided in the lovely black and white dotted pattern. I often crochet on the go, so the 3 that are on the keychain for quick and handy use are amazing. Because they came on a key-ring I am able to easily put them on my keys, and they are handy whenever I need to crochet on the go, but of the same quality as the full size. This is a godsend. Recommended for gifts for all ages. Please note that I received these hooks at a reduced rate in return for an honest and unbiased review. This unbiased review is my own honest opinion after using the hooks for myself.

It's for my big brother girlfriend she's happy with the quality So my brother happy so I am happy good job

Great molds! Love them!

I needed to replace a 5" piece missing from the arm of a cast aluminum (?) chair that's part of a patio dining set. I thought I was going to have to find someone capable of casting and welding a repair at a reasonable cost until I stumbled across this stuff on Amazon. It turned out to be the perfect material for what I needed. I carved a replacement for the missing piece by putting a roughly shaped replacement piece in place on the chair, then using cheap clay carving tools (about $6 on Amazon) to match the other arms. Sculpey is firm, but the piece was about 5"x1.5" and only about 0.5" thick with an arch shape, and given those dimensions I thought the arch might sag during baking. To prevent that I shaped a support out of aluminum foil and put that under the piece of sculpey on a baking pan before it went into the oven. It baked fine and didn't shrink, and I used Gorilla crazy glue to attach it to the chair, then painted it with stove-black spray paint. As far as I can tell the replacement is strongly attached and I expect it to last for a very long time. Probably saved me a couple hundred dollars. I recommend baking a test piece before you bake the real thing so you know what to expect and can be confident in the result. Great stuff.

These lobster claws are awesome their made really well I will be ordering more very soon. Thank you

I have been sculpting for years with a variety of high fire clay. I found myself a bit too decrepit to hoist it all in and out of my kiln anymore. Simply had to give it up. Knowing nothing about Sculpey I say this online and on a whim, purchased it. I was amazed at the ease of use. Next thing I know, I'm re-purchasing clay tools, reading books and watching you-tube videos. What fun! Working with this clay is pretty cool. It accepts fine detail, it is easy to paint, it hardens like a rock after baking; it's sturdy and forgiving. It's also clean. I sit with it in my lap while watching TV and whittle away at it on a tray. Don't get me wrong, I haven't made any masterpieces, but I have made totally acceptable little heads and bodies. As a complete beginner with this clay I am totally pleased.
5
Itching to start a project using them as I like the look of punch needling very nice
5
This is a lovely die. I love how all the pieces are included in one pass through the machine. I think I'll use this one a lot.
5
We love this self adhesive lace tape for paper crafting. I have ordered and used lots! Very easy to use. I recommend this seller and their products to others.
5
I made a really big owl and I needed to use all 4 of the squares. When I ironed it, they all 4 bowed in their individual centers and made it nearly impossible to get to the middle where they all interlock. They might work fine singly, but I only bought them because they interlock for bigger projects.
3
It worked okay.

I brought these buttons for a fall/thanksgiving craft for kids ranging from age 4-7. They loved using them for their scarecrows, flowers, and trees. They had fun using them and because they did, I didn't regret buying them.
5
I would recommend this product to everyone. It's a lot of pins for the price. And free shipping! What can be any better? One thing....some of the pins were flat headed so I could not use them.
4
I did not like this thread. The colors were not like the picture at all. Most of the colors were muddy and dull. I won't buy again.

gooooood

Very well made, fit perfect!

Very masculine. Great card for outdoorsies

these are terrific pens for the price, and all of them arrived without any leakage or damage. Good job!

I am slowly collecting all the available Spectrum Noir Glitter Brush Pens. While you can use the clear overlay pens to add sparkle to any color medium (at least those that I have tried so far), these are a a one step splash of glitz for my cad making!! The pastels are light and lovely. To my eye, the (1) Rose Quartz shade has a bit of coral in it rather than being a true pastel pink. The Cosmos (appears as a pastel lavender on the barrel) is brighter and more vibrant than expected. It is a lipstick pink with a little fushsia in it. The (3) Moonstone shade is a lovely pale blue, and most resembles the shade on the pen barrel. I am by no means an artist, so this is my eyeball account, of course. In any case, they are lovely colors that do not duplicate any that I already own. I will certainly use them frequently. As for the pen performance, I believe I can speak well from experience. This is my sixth purchase of multi-packs of these pens. I have not had one incidence of any arriving with leaks. Having read the instructions, I give a little shake, remove the yellow band and squeeze gently...yes, gently and slowly. I do this over a scrap sheet, and don't expect the first squeeze to be project-ready. When a small drop of ink comes out, I swipe the brush and the pen is ready to go. It will need to be shaken lightly periodically, and squeezed gently as well, to keep the ink flowing. In summary, I love the subtle sparkle and beautiful color these add to my cards. The glitter does not rub off. The sparkle is more of a subtle glow than an in-your-face glitter effect. I can't speak to how long they last, as none have gone dry for me yet. However, I have only owned them for a few weeks. Couldn't be happier with my Spectrum Noir Glitter Pens. Can't wait to collect them all!!
5
very nice small brushes for card making
5
Love all the colors and they are easy to use. No more pricking my fingers and getting blood on the fabric! And you can't miss seeing them when sewing, so you it would be unlikely that you'd sew over them and hence break a needle.
5
Beautiful quality and colors! Nothing feels as good in your hands as the real deal, and this is it. Moss agate always helps ground and center me at the same time.
5
Beautiful colors love the swirl
5
Nice item delivered in less than a week for a great price. Can't beat that! I love these little beads. Pretty tiny but have a good sized hole through the center. The pic shows the variety of colors, finishes, and color distribution accurately. There are glossy cubes in both transparent (either throughout or w/ opaque center) and opaque. There's also matte or "frosty" translucent cubes (either one color throughout or multi-color).
4
This size is way too big for me; at least right now. But, it does it's job to hold paint and to mix colors. Easy wash up.
4
Very good basic set. Soft bristles
4
I thought these would be a plain looking plastic but they have a pearl finish. The smallest is really thin but you will not use big yarn with it anyways. These are really light and great for someone you has tension issues. They are flexible so you don't have to worry about getting in tight spots.
4
i am going to keep them but but they or real small i can not put them on leather or thick jeans
2
makes pressing fabric for quilting easy. fabric doesn't stretch like it would on the smooth surface of the ironing board cover
5
This is a very sturdy table easel. My old one kept walking away and collapsing, but this one is great! If you need if for bigger pieces of stretched canvas, simply put one of those large pieces of foam board behind the canvas and it will work great!
5
the beads are gorgeous in their green color. good quality beads. just right size. I would definitely order again. delivery on time. well packed
5
Ordered these to use in a recent Journal Making Workshop. They did the job well - thank you!
5
The ribbon is beautiful and of good craft quality. However, that being said, the lengths are grossly inconsistent. I was very disappointed as the lengths clearly marked on each spool said "4 feet". One spool barely had 1 foot of ribbon and the rest averaged around 2 feet of ribbon per spool. I've written to American Crafts to see if they knew about this quality issue. They make great products and sometimes stuff like this happens. Unfortunately, this discovery came at a time when I needed to use the ribbon. With this length problem, I ended up getting less than half the ribbon I expected to work with.
2
Love the cute button heads but they do tend to break off too easily. These pins are a must for quilting.

Well this is rather frustrating. I bought the PED-Basic (package). I am running win 8.1. Downloaded from Brother website. I have had to hack into the program itself and add .pes files to the Samples folder in order to get the program to recognize my .pes files. I have a SE270D (yep, it is an oldie, but a goody) and if I mini-hack into the actual Samples folder all is well. I don't know if I am the only person on the planet that has run into the issue, but aside from it being a little laborious it works fine. If there are any others out there having this issue and have a different work around, I would love to hear comments. Since my machine doesn't have any other means of transferring the pattern except with a card, I am happy that it gives me the option of having so much variety, even if it isn't all that easy to use. UPDATE: This is really an odd issue. I have 2 computers, both Win 8.1 - One is a Dell, the other is an HP laptop. The program works perfectly on my HP Laptop, but I have had several issues with my Dell. I have no idea why. My laptop will also run other programs that my desktop won't. Just thought it was worth noting. I may be the only person using this software that has had a problem. I wish I had an explanation. If anyone has had this happen and has tip or trick, I would love to hear about it. Thanks.

if you want to start in making the fancy stuff for parties, fancy matting for frames, banners, & much much more. remember to WATCH THE VIDEO before tiring to set it up and do it your self. The video is easy to watch and follow. replacement blades are not hard to get and will cut all paper and thin fabric. this is the smaller unit which is great to learn with and see if you might need to upgrade to the larger model later but there are very few things the bigger one is need for. making this a great long term starter.
5
loveee the country garden colors and the thread is very nice quality. I wish they had more color packs or an option to build your own. i'll definitely buy more of this thread in the future though!
5
This is my absolute favorite paper! I love it for watercolors and all media really. It holds up well to many layers of paint.
5
very nice colored pencils and a good selection of colors -- just started using them -- not sure what kind of sharpener to use -- but not an issue uet! -- happy with my purchase
5
Crystal clear. Kids made Xmas candles with it with decor on the bottom of a clear container.
5
Not worth it. All but two (literally) are too small to use. The majority of mine, we're tshirt shaped, with a heart on them. Not cute. Also, I didn't want I love Jesus charms. Not a good theme or variety. Keep looking!
1
I am using this as a stand for taking photographs of finished drawings, paintings, and camera evaluation targets, sometimes from a distance. So it was important to have at least moderate stability (I am not painting on it) AND the ability to have the drawing perfectly vertical to eliminate distortion in the photograph. It turns out that for a modest investment, this stand works fine. I have to hang a improvised weight (e.g. a half gallon jug on a string) from the rear leg to keep the balance stable when the front legs are in a vertical position but that is a tradeoff I made vs buying a much more expensive and bulky wooden stand. Plus it all folds up nicely into the supplied carrying case.
5
This yarn is super soft but tricky to crochet. I had to go by feel for the stitches (as another reviewer stated). I made a baby blanket for a coworker and it turned out beautifully!
5
Yes, good tool. I even used this to cut my garage insulation. PERFECT
5
I am in love with all ChiaoGoo neeles- the interchangeable Twist sets and cords. fantastic quality and durability! Have used for nearly a year!
5
Nice creamy texture. Goes on smooth. Has a reddish color. I used it to highlight polymer clay. Works well on wood frames too.
5
This is a very cute product; it is small and it is very easy to use and store. Def recommend it!

I've had my Grand Caliber for over two years! I Love it! No problems! I got tired of buying cutting plates for my Big Shot, Sizzix. I doubt I will ever have to replace a plate with the Grand Caliber. I use it for embossing and die cutting. I put the die on the edges. I shim the middle. I've made thousands of embossed cards and at least a thousand or more die cuts! I follow the sandwich directions, I use the raspberry plate for embossing. I love the 3D embossing plates spellbinders sells. Worth every penny. I still use my Sizzix because I like their magnetic platform. With the grand caliber I have to use painters tape to hold the dies in place. I do fill up the base plate with as many dies as it will hold so I have less time spent cutting things. The 8.5" x11" paper fits with a tad of space left over! I got tired of tearing paper in half ...which you have to do with the Sizxix. The Grand Caliber I just use 8.5" x11" paper and it cuts well. I was surprised so many people have had trouble with it. I've dropped mine, cats have knocked it over, it's lightweight enough to take to classes or crops. I can balance it on the edge of my sofa arm rest and crank away while watching TV. The one thing u should know is spellbinders is discontinuing this machine so I bought extra plates just in case. Plus, I like mine so much I'm buying a second machine just in case I wear out my first one. After reading the reviews, (many were so negative I was shocked!), I realize, I must of been so Lucky to get mine! I wish the Platinum machine did not have the same type of plates as the Sizxix! I would of gotten the Platinum if they had the same type of plates as the Grand Caliber. The Grand Caliber plates seem to be made out of Corian counter top material. It just doesn't warp, bubble n break like the clear, crappy, plastic plates everyone else uses. I read the reviews for the Platinum, all metal interior n heavier ability to cut, but people have to buy replacement plates constantly! What a pain!!!! N a stupid cost! Why couldn't they have made a heavier all metal interior n kept these plates?! I guess I'm buying a second Grand Caliber for my future! I'm a big fan! When it works like mine! I've been fortunate. Note: those Tim holtz BIG dies the ones with foam etc will NOT fit. You're stuck using the Sizxix n the tray base plate they sell for those dies. On Spellbinders web site they give you sandwich instructions for embossing n die cutting. Each brand requires looking up until u memorize it. Not doing the sandwich correctly can break your machine. That's true for all the machines. If you watch Cherry Lynn's website the guy explains how all die cutting machines work; why the midpoint of die machines are the weakest part which is why you need to shim only that area; why wax paper messes up your dies in the long run, how to shim, etc. It might help. If you put your shim over the whole die you generally just thickened the wrong areas n still won't hit that middle. U only shim the part that missed Nothing More. You turn, by a quarter, the die for the second run thru if it didn't cut all the way out. You never put your die straight through always at an angle. This increases the longevity of any die machine and makes for easier n better cutting. Hope this helps someone!!! Good luck n enjoy! I love my Grand Caliber machine!

Nice wholesale Rondo beads. I really like that they came in their own storage case! The case is nice and sturdy and easy to open it. I would definitely repurchase these if I needed more.
5
This was for my daughter. She said that it's very nice and soft and easy to work with...
5
mod podge awesomeness. like glue, but better.
5
Gives a great finished look to many of my cards.
5
I am an experienced sew-ist and I've be sewing for 50 years. Just purchased this machine and with the exception of the light that illuminates the work area, it's a dull yellow light....the machine is amazing!! It's quiet, is lightning fast....1600 spm, has beautiful stitch quality and is easy to use. It's heavy....perhaps 25lbs? Not a machine to take to class and you'll need a sturdy table to work from. This is a wonderful machine and although I just purchased a Juki F300 machine, I'm considering selling it and buying the Singer S18. I would never have considered a Singer machine before but I will now. I purchased this machine directly from Singer. It was the lowest price I found with free shipping.
5
Perfect stones. Nice size and very shiny.
5
Great quality! Thank you!
5
Very authentic looking. My daughter loved it. It was heavier metal than I expected.
5
I have been wanting this.. So exciting! I love love Disney and can't wait to make cards and do scrapbooking. I also have the Princess cart's. Easy to use with the Cricut, makes great layered characters. Make sure you get lots of different paper colors!
5
Love how many sizes it comes with
5
This is exactly what I expected and needed. The wire has been perfect for the projects I am working on.
5
Great items for cutting playdough and safe for kids.
5
The tape keeps braking. I think the glider may be fine, but the tape is questionable. The tape brakes and then I have the use portion coming out of the case and then sticking to the new tape. It causes quite a mess.

Does not dry clear.

My favorite crochet hooks! this was a great set of three and I like the size variety. I like crocheting chunkier, bulkier projects and these three hooks were perfect. solid aluminum construction and they feel very well made. I also like how they're different colors so I don't have to read the side every time. 10/10 would buy this brand again.
5
Loved these, created my own art for my room, at a fraction of the cost of other options, and had professional results. As an artist I make these myself often, but it's nice to have a quality shortcut from time to time.
5
excellent quality and perfect to do the finish of my jeans
