Very juicy, highly pigmented, crisp black stamping, archival, dries quickly and permanently. Love it!	5
Very Decorative	5
This is the perfect size to put a project in to keep it all in one place. I am going on a quilt retreat and this is what I am bringing my project in.	5
I have bought from Candlemakers before and will do so again and again.	5
Very good, but I have had to throw out over 10% due to missing rhinestones or breaking apart.	4
I purchased a magnetic chalkboard at Target and the chalk pens that came with it came out as gloopy or transparent, never really worked. So I ordered there. And they are fantastic! The colors are bright and the flow of ink is smooth.	5
I have this one and a metal mandrel and prefer this one even though it's cheaper. I have small fingers and find that anything size 6 and below are pretty true to size... Some other reviewers say that the sizing is off but so far I haven't had that problem. The indentation on the back helps for placing beads A LOT!! The fact that it's light weight means you don't have to exert yourself to keep everything in position. For shaping wire wrap rings I prefer this one, but the metal one is very useful if I have to hammer a ring into shape (so each have their uses). If this ever breaks or I loose it, I will be buying this again :)	5
I use this because I have a regular thimble on my right hand and this one on my left hand ofr quilting. I have long fingernails and this works great!	5
super colors	5
I design multiple views of the same item and need to remain true to color on each. I was pleased to find Barn Wood at Amazon. Driving to the local Craft/Art store to find NO STOCK can be costly. Barn Wood is a medium gray with a tan hue (not a true gray) Barn Wood saves me mixing, I can use it right out of the bottle. Amazon also had other acrylic colors I needed and delivery was quick. Saved time and money	5
Shipped from China but arrived in a timely manner. I am using all of the different findings in this collection. I will purchase this again.	5
Gorgeous images !!	5
Loved adding this to my collection--Madeira works well in my machines.	5
These are actually made in Japan with a store in Oregon that sells them here in the states. It took a little while to get them, but they finally came. They are a very good needle. I sew a lot make a lot of clothes and doll clothes, so I use a new needle every 8 hours of sewing. I feel these are just as good as any other top brand out there i.e. Klasse, Schmetz. Janome packs them with their new machines so they can't be all bad.	5
So easy to use with great results. Entire process was seamless.	5
This is my favorite size container. I have hundreds of the tiny ones, which are awesome and hold quite a few beads, but this size is excellent for storing slightly larger beads such as daggers, larger roundelles, etc. I just love them. Best storage system ever.	5
Beautiful quality sterling plated beads. They are highly polished and bright...better than I expected. I'm new to making jewelry, If you are too, just know 3mm is a very tiny bead size. It's just a little larger than a pen point. The will fit on 0.08mm elastic cord. The Seller included a free gift. Some beautiful, fully faceted, crystal 6mm beads. Thank you	5
Perfect texture for charcoal	4
Fabulous product for my jewelry making efforts!	5
My favorite needles. These are one of my must have tools for jewelry making.	5
Love it! Sprays evenly where you want it, and holds tight. I used it to glue fabric onto cardboard and felt onto finished wood. Both applications were great. The felt had to be pulled away and repositioned a week after I first glued it and I did not have to reapply it; it was still adequately tacky.	5
I have been using this enamel sifter for quite some time and it still performs like it was brand new. It sifts the enamel in an even and uniform fashion on my copper pieces for fire torched enameling. It has a smaller handle making it easy for me to steady it over my copper to sift. The handle also has ridges in it to sift with vibration for a more even coat of the enamel. I would recommend this sifter to anyone who is looking into powder enameling.	4
Great product for craft making	5
I made program fans for my son's wedding with these. They are just the right size. The wedding day was very hot and everyone was fanning away. The sticks held up beautifully. I would highly recommend them	5
These work very nicely! You can use the dies for a flat card, also. They are time consuming, but if you like detail work these rock!	5
I have been crocheting for decades. I use an overhand or "knife" grip. I've always been happy with the Susan Bates metal hooks. Based on the reviews, I decided to try this product. I used acrylic worsted weight yarn. I didn't find it any more comfortable than my other hooks. It was actually a little cumbersome for me. It wasn't especially soft or cushioned.	2
I'm using these for quilling and so far I like the different sized tips because I use different sized paper. I'm putting different kinds of glue in and it works great and stays in the nice container it came in. I'm happy If using with glue, make sure you clean it out well, especially the small ones or you're out of a tip. Thats my bad. Am not able to use a few tips now because I didn't clean them out. Totally my fault	5
Not the shipper, only the product. I found them to be to thin to grip onto. I prefer a thicker block.	1
Love this as a stitch counter, until my hubby stole it to keep track of how many fish he had in his boat well, so he would not be over his limit!	5
Great tool when used right...took time to figure it out!!	5
Stiffer and stronger tip than most other calligraphy markers I've tried. The small side is roughly the same width as the small side of the Metallic Zig, but the large side is noticeably wider. One was initially dry (if you look next to the green "calligraphy" I've pictured, you'll see on the left how I had to work it a bit to get the ink flowing again). Pigment is good. Shows through on the back side of medium weight paper, but no excessive bleeding.	4
Good industrial zipper	5
Believe it or not, this was the only item my granddaughter asked for this Christmas...and what a time I had finding it! She loved creating her own colors and got many hours of enjoyment from it. Now I need to search for refills!	5
This is a great buy. I bought this for mulitple projects around my house, my grandas house and my moms house! I still have bout 20 ft left over!	5
Exactly as pictured, love, love, love! So pretty!	5
Beautiful colors, Excellent service.	5
There are plenty of different colored thread. The little scissors broke soon after using them; but I'd still buy these again if I needed more thread.	5
Art Impressions stamps are the best, and Amazon ALWAYS has the lowest prices!	5
Great assortment. Already used some in pieces.	5
I LOVE this mat.. I've only had it in my hot little hands for just a few days as of writing this review, but I was amazed at how much heavier it is when I received it. I put it up on my cutting table last night, and it lays nice and flat. It took several cuts quite nicely with the rotary cutter after I put a new blade in my cutter and just tried slicing into the mat with it. I then cut some fabric with it and it just slid very nicely along the fabric to give me a great cut. Several of the reasons I purchased this mat were due to the reviews of it, not only on Amazon, but in Facebook groups for quilting. I'd never heard of this brand, but I loved the idea that their was no odor, that it truly self heals itself and withstands warping. The owner of the company also takes the time to emails his customers about your purchase, if your happy with how it was shipped, and not only did he reply to my reply, but we had a lovely chat in email. He also extensions the warranty of the mat to 90 days versus Amazons 30 day warranty, and it's simple to register via the Calibre Arts website. Take a chance, I to believe that like all the other reviewers, you will love this mat. Another great feature, it's marked on both sides of the mat, one side in inches, one side in meters, but I love the fact that when one side wears out, or if I'm cutting applique shapes, I can just flip it over and use the other side.	5
Perfect addition to the Super Satchel to hold serger thread cones.	5
NOT a fan of Cricut Brand Vinyl but it was cheap. Other brands are easier to use.	3
Used this brand for years. Excellent coverage and workability. Highly recommend.	5
Love the price of the set. The mat and measuring ruler are awesome. The rotary cutter was not my favorite. The blade wasn't sharp and handle makes for a uncomfortable hold.	4
I have the aluminum silver leaf, and this does not match it at all. I purchased it to blend in actual leafing.... it does not, I had to go back and leaf over the touch ups I made. As for just using it to paint I can not attest to.	3
This craft sheet is brilliant. Use it all the time. As a matter of fact I just keep in out on my art desk to catch all the paint I use to get everywhere. It wipes clean and nothing sticks to it because its made of some type of resin. Well worth the money. Just wish it was a bigger.	5
I bought this because I was looking for the round sponges included in this package. It was more economical to buy this package than just one round sponge so I thought I would try them. I use them for blending acrylic paint on canvas and still really like using the round smooth sponges, I tried the 2 others but they are stiff. I tried wetting them and then blending with them, but I think it is something I might have to get used to. This would be a great buy for arts and crafts with kids though, and I am very happy with the purchase. I use the 2 round sponges every day.	5
I have used it many times now, and it's still going strong. Good buy	5
I love the idea of this bag, however the the first time I used the bag the zipper broke. The end were not sewn securely, it pulled apart, and the zipper head came off and I can not use the zipper now. I will try to resew it myself and use velcro to close it. The bag itself is very spacious, and the compartments and holes for the different yarns is a great idea. I love it, but again, it needs to be sewn more securely. The seller did an excellent job, I received it almost right after I ordered it.	5
I mostly use this type of brush for scrubbing /lifting watercolor. I bought these because of the inclusion of the flat shapes, but while they work well in terms of lifting paint, the flat brushes are a bit too soft to hold their shapes while working. Useful in a limited way.	4
I don't use a lot of acrylics but when I do I lean toward Liquitex because of its consistency and quality. This titanium white is a great example. Creamy and smooth. Great by itself but I almost always use it to temper another color. Good sized tube for my needs.	5
LOVE THIS MOLD, PERFECT FOR MY SOAPS	5
Nice. Some of the darker colors seem a bit chunkier then the lighter ones. But they overall are nice. Adds a nice touch to my projects	5
I have ring guards that are one thick tube of the same material. This brilliant design allows for a perfect fit for any ring that needs adjusting.	5
Love this product. I like using it for baby clothes. It is soft and flexible just like the description states. I will buy this again.	5
Trying to get a scant 1/4 inch seam was a challenge, and I was never sure what I measured was exactly right. This little tool took out all the exasperation. But I wish it was a bit longer and had other measurements.	5
These are great Magnetic Clasps. The magnet is strong and they are easy to use. I will order these again.	5
I guess I deserved it. Should've checked the reviews, as I usually do. Received it today, and I concur with you regarding quality - not the best. Also, there aren't twenty various patterns. There are ten colors x 8 pieces each.	2
love it but kind of small	5
A real time saver and easy to use.	5
i have bought several sets of the unit needles for myself and my daughter. they work well and seem well put together. they are not really slick but not rough. a nice rounded point. i have unit in both the longer length straight needles and these which are the shorter ones. although i own more expensive clover bamboos in some sizes i bought these mainly for scarves and casting on for hats in lots of sizes since i do a lot of charity knitting and i like to have all the sizes needed at my finger tips. these short ones are especially good for scarves if you do not want the length or heaviness of the longer ones. they arrived very quickly and were well packaged/undamaged.	5
My kids were the primary testers of this art kit. Attached to my review are pictures of their two projects which used this kit. (Except the stickers, my youngest added those herself) One thing that I wondered the most about was the graphite pencils. I use Prismacolor Sketch Pencils. My oldest daughter uses Artists Loft Sketch Pencils. Since US Art Supply has consistently provided high quality affordable art options I wanted to see how well these compared. In my attached photos you can see the variance between each pencil. (4H, 2H, HB, 4B and 6B) The fourth picture is with no flash and the fifth picture is with a flash. Im impressed with these pencils. The graphite is soft which is great for shading. The variance between each shade is nice. They sharpen easily which means less waste. Overall I think these compare nicely to the other brands we used. For the price these are amazing. Overall every item in this 45 Piece Art Set by US Art Supply has lived up to my expectations. The crayons and colored pencils are most comparable to Crayolas quality. The water colors are, in my opinion, higher quality than Crayola. The sketching pencils are more like Artist Lofts. They are still comparable to Prismacolor. With Prismacolor having the lighter 4H & 2H options. I prefer US Art Supplys 4B and 6B over Prismacolors. US Art Supplys lead is softer and would be better for shading. I would use these pencils personally for my sketches. Ratings (Out of five stars): Color Pencil Quality: 4 Crayon Quality: 4 Paint Quality: 5 Pencil Quality: 5 Sharpener Quality: 5 Value: 5 Overall rating: 28 out of 30 stars / 4.6 Star Average I hope you enjoyed this 45 Piece Art Set review. If you have any questions about my experience please leave me a comment. I will be happy to follow up. I received this product complimentary from US Art Supply for quality testing purposes; all opinions expressed are my own.	5
Great little stamp for inking or embossing thank you cards and/or gift tags. I find it easy to use and the size is good for my taste.	4
Humorous hard hat decal.	5
I have used this for making beads and also for wine glass charm rings. So far it is holding up great!	5
What a great kit to experiment with Inks!	5
Very nice beads. They made a very pretty bracelet. Thank you.	5
As a beginner, I went overboard, but I'm taking my new class seriously and my REAL artist friends said this was the one to get... seems to have everything I should be capable of putting into use until I'm well beyond my first few drawing courses! Also, I like that it comes in a protective tin.	5
Watch out...not returnable. Got these for extras with a loom set, the loom was way too difficult for young kids to use, as yarn kept coming off pegs. Returned loom, but now stuck with hooks. Maybe will work as toothpicks?	3
Great quality, only bobbin thread I will purchase	5
Very cute. I'll be making Christmas tags with these.	5
I should have purchased these years ago before I lost one of every earring I own that was expensive...of course you never lose the inexpensive ones!	5
very good piece of fabric	5
Where has this been for the last 35 years of my sewing life????? Wonderful quality, I never worry about my hems not being exact anymore!! This tool makes my work day a lot easier!!	5
Excellent for burying threads.	5
I had never made tassels before getting this. I wanted to make my own tassels from some of the various threads and fibers I've accumulated, for use in jewelry. In retrospect, I probably should've gone with the smaller sized tassel maker, as the smallest tassel you can make with this one is quite large. (About the right size for the style of necklace I was looking to make, but far too big for earrings.) This uses rather a lot of thread/fiber/yarn/etc. (choose whatever material you want, as long as it is a continuous length) because of the size. So until you have used it a few times, have more material than you think you need. As one example, I tried making a tassel with a roll of Kreinik sparkly chenille stuff and I used every last bit of the roll. (Tassel came out all right, though!) There are instructions included. I am not going to say they are the easiest to follow instructions I've ever seen, but they are serviceable. Now I just have to keep track of them...You do end up with a long-ish string from which the tassel is hanging, which helps in terms of incorporating it into a piece of jewelry (or crochet, or whatever project you happen to be working on). The tassels work up quickly; I'd say I finished my first one in less than 10 minutes, and that was with frequent reference to the directions. I got faster as I figured out what I was doing. This is plastic and is not super substantial, but right now, after some use, the tracks you use to adjust tassel size are still working just fine and I don't think there is any danger of the plastic snapping with regular use. This is rigid and does not bend, and you do get consistent sizing, which is important for projects incorporating multiple tassels (e.g., knitting scarves and such). I'm probably going to go back and get the small one because I think that will suit me better. But this one will get used a fair amount, as well.	4
Great product! Will reorder.	5
Great value and quality. Cut 1/4" glass.	5
I was really impressed by this folder! It came out beautifully. I think I can use this in many ways, if anyone out there has any new ideas please let me know. It arrived rather quickly and packaged well.	5
This case is very useful. At the price of dies and stamps, it pays to take care of them.	5
great product for threads	5
i had to learn how to use these pencils.... first of all i found that i could only use the sharpener that came with the pencils...and one has to sharpen them before using them or else there will be great difficulty in getting the color to lay down on the paper....after i figured all of that out i have loved using these pencils and would recommend them to people.	4
Smells of the filler/ binder koi uses. Much more than pans.	2
Great variety of buttons with some super duper cute special pieces in each batch.	5
LOOK INTO THE LATIN MEANING	5
Great size. Smooth finish making it easy to work with	5
These make awesome headbands and hair clips! We bought these and have let our daughter help design some. Amazing! She is in love, and they are really a great bargain!	5
I got these for working with polymer clay. I don't use all of the pieces, but the price was so good it doesn't matter.	5
as expected, maybe a tad smaller then what I wanted but that is my mistake....not good with MM for measurements!	5
While I found these to be adorably cute they didn't actually fit my planner all that well and bent the cover and pages. I couldn't use them but they were an off brand to my planner . If you are an Erin Condren user pass on these otherwise they're cute.	3
Before I got this thread I made my own thread stand and it worked out great. And you can't beat the price	5
So fun! Great set of dies.	5
I ordered this by accident, I thought it was yarn and not roving, it is ok, I am sure I will find a use for it.	3
Initially I bought the set of 12ml tubes but the consistency of paint is as good as Golden heavy body ones and the colors go far too. Loved the consistency for the knife painting. Hence went ahead and got the larger pack of 21 ml tubes. However, check the colors that come with the pack. I normally paint lanscapes so this set is good for me and I can mix a lot of colors from the ones available in this set. But based on what you like to paint the choice of colors you want may change. I would still by a few colors from Golden but probably none that come in this set.	5
Some nice scrapers and dabbers in this set.i bought two sets keeping one set as a backup. Price is real reasonable for what you get.	4
Excellent value for money at less than $1.00 per spool. Colors match the color chart available from brother. You	5
This stuff is the bees knees. I purchased this for a Flame Princess cosplay, in the Ochre color, and I must say that it was absolutely perfect. This was my second attempt at a face paint for that character, with the first try ending up much more orange (think Cheeto) than the yellow-orange that I was going for. Ive now tried two different orange face/body paints, and I would say that this one is definitely the better choice. Ive attached a photo comparing our group cosplay, and the differences in color. This seems to be a wet-applied product, and it really needs generous amount of water before it becomes spreadable enough to use. I was dripping some water in at first, but then I quickly realized you basically need enough that it puddles inside the container. Its easily spreadable after that, either with a sponge or fingers. I only used one coat, then did touch ups around my arms and clavicle. When Ive used this, I do my face, entire arms, chest, and a little of my back, and there is still a good bit left. I probably used about 1/6 of it for the first application. Afterwards, I use a finishing spray to make sure it stayed on longer, so there wasn't a lot of sweat off the makeup this time. Really, that seems to be a key thing to do with this. Since its water-based, it comes off more easily when you sweat. I wore this in September in Georgia, so you can definitely expect I tried out its ability to stay fresh in humid, hot circumstances. Despite that, it all didn't come off in the shower. Some was still on my hands and fingernails, and my arm pits and the inner crease of my arm. And yes, I scrubbed with warm water and soap. PROS: -Easily spreadable with a (good) bit of water. -The PERFECT color for FP from Adventure Time. -I only used about 1/6 of it for the first application, so there is a good bit leftover. -I didn't experience any dry patches with this makeup, and my skin tends to be sensitive, which was a huge plus. The other body paint I used dried out parts of my face, which hurt, as you can imagine. CONS: -Rubbed off on my clothes more easily than the other face paint I tried. -Comes off when you sweat, so youll need to do something to keep it on. (Baby powder, finishing spray, hairspray)	5
Great dies. Nice size and cut beautifully.	5
After cutting paper, be patient. It takes time and more time to assemble a small house. I planned to build a Christmas village with this and other dies but its labor intensive to assemble. It makes a nice cute house.	4
Would be nice if a nail wasn't sticking out of it	1

I use them for blending acrylic paint on canvas and still really like using the round smooth sponges, I tried the 2 others but they are stiff. I tried wetting them and then blending with them, but I think it is something I might have to get used to. This would be a great buy for arts and crafts with kids though, and I am very happy with the purchase. I use the 2 round sponges every day.

I have used it many times now, and it's still going strong. Good buy

I love the idea of this bag, however the the first time I used the bag the zipper broke. The end were not sewn securely, it pulled apart, and the zipper head came off and I can not use the zipper now. I will try to resew it myself and use velcro to close it. The bag itself is very spacious, and the compartments and holes for the different yarns is a great idea. I love it, but again, it needs to be sewn more securely. The seller did an excellent job, I received it almost right after I ordered it.

I mostly use this type of brush for scrubbing /lifting watercolor. I bought these because of the inclusion of the flat shapes, but while they work well in terms of lifting paint, the flat brushes are a bit too soft to hold their shapes while working. Useful in a limited way.

I don't use a lot of acrylics but when I do I lean toward Liquitex because of its consistency and quality. This titanium white is a great example. Creamy and smooth. Great by itself but I almost always use it to temper another color. Good sized tube for my needs.

LOVE THIS MOLD, PERFECT FOR MY SOAPS

5

Nice. Some of the darker colors seem a bit chunkier then the lighter ones. But they overall are nice. Adds a nice touch to my projects

5

I have ring guards that are one thick tube of the same material. This brilliant design allows for a perfect fit for any ring that needs adjusting.

5

Love this product. I like using it for baby clothes. It is soft and flexible just like the description states. I will buy this again.

5

Trying to get a scant 1/4 inch seam was a challenge, and I was never sure what I measured was exactly right. This little tool took out all the exasperation. But I wish it was a bit longer and had other measurements.

5

These are great Magnetic Clasps. The magnet is strong and they are easy to use. I will order these again.

5

I guess I deserved it. Should've checked the reviews, as I usually do. Received it today, and I concur with you regarding quality - not the best. Also, there aren't twenty various patterns. There are ten colors x 8 pieces each.

love it but kind of small

5

A real time saver and easy to use.

i have bought several sets of the unit needles for myself and my daughter. they work well and seem well put together. they are not really slick but not rough. a nice rounded point. i have unit in both the longer length straight needles and these which are the shorter ones. although i own more expensive clover bamboos in some sizes i bought these mainly for scarves and casting on for hats in lots of sizes since i do a lot of charity knitting and i like to have all the sizes needed at my finger tips. these short ones are especially good for scarves if you do not want the length or heaviness of the longer ones. they arrived very quickly and were well packaged/undamaged.

My kids were the primary testers of this art kit. Attached to my review are pictures of their two projects which used this kit. (Except the stickers, my youngest added those herself) One thing that I wondered the most about was the graphite pencils. I use Prismacolor Sketch Pencils. My oldest daughter uses Artists Loft Sketch Pencils. Since US Art Supply has consistently provided high quality affordable art options I wanted to see how well these compared. In my attached photos you can see the variance between each pencil. (4H, 2H, HB, 4B and 6B) The fourth picture is with no flash and the fifth picture is with a flash. Im impressed with these pencils. The graphite is soft which is great for shading. The variance between each shade is nice. They sharpen easily which means less waste. Overall I think these compare nicely to the other brands we used. For the price these are amazing. Overall every item in this 45 Piece Art Set by US Art Supply has lived up to my expectations. The crayons and colored pencils are most comparable to Crayolas quality. The water colors are, in my opinion, higher quality than Crayola. The sketching pencils are more like Artist Lofts. They are still comparable to Prismacolor. With Prismacolor having the lighter 4H & 2H options. I prefer US Art Supplys 4B and 6B over Prismacolors. US Art Supplys lead is softer and would be better for shading. I would use these pencils personally for my sketches. Ratings (Out of five stars): Color Pencil Quality: *4* Crayon Quality: *4* Paint Quality: *5* Pencil Quality: *5* Sharpener Quality: *5* Value: *5* Overall rating: 28 out of 30 stars / 4.6 Star Average I hope you enjoyed this 45 Piece Art Set review. If you have any questions about my experience please leave me a comment. I will be happy to follow up. I received this product complimentary from US Art Supply for quality testing purposes; all opinions expressed are my own.

Great little stamp for inking or embossing thank you cards and/or gift tags. I find it easy to use and the size is good for my taste.

4

Humorous hard hat decal.

5

I have used this for making beads and also for wine glass charm rings. So far it is holding up great!

5

What a great kit to experiment with Inks!

5

Very nice beads. They made a very pretty bracelet. Thank you.

5

As a beginner, I went overboard, but I'm taking my new class seriously and my REAL artist friends said this was the one to get... seems to have everything I should be capable of putting into use until I'm well beyond my first few drawing courses! Also, I like that it comes in a protective tin.

5

Watch out...not returnable. Got these for extras with a loom set, the loom was way too difficult for young kids to use, as yarn kept coming off pegs. Returned loom, but now stuck with hooks. Maybe will work as toothpicks?

3

Great quality, only bobbin thread I will purchase

5

Very cute. I'll be making Christmas tags with these.

5

I should have purchased these years ago before I lost one of every earring I own that was expensive...of course you never lose the inexpensive ones!

5

very good piece of fabric

5

Where has this been for the last 35 years of my sewing life????? Wonderful quality, I never worry about my hems not being exact anymore!! This tool makes my work day a lot easier!!

5

Excellent for burying threads.

I had never made tassels before getting this. I wanted to make my own tassels from some of the various threads and fibers I've accumulated, for use in jewelry. In retrospect, I probably should've gone with the smaller sized tassel maker, as the smallest tassel you can make with this one is quite large. (About the right size for the style of necklace I was looking to make, but far too big for earrings.) This uses rather a lot of thread/fiber/yarn/etc. (choose whatever material you want, as long as it is a continuous length) because of the size. So until you have used it a few times, have more material than you think you need. As one example, I tried making a tassel with a roll of Kreinik sparkly chenille stuff and I used every last bit of the roll. (Tassel came out all right, though!) There are instructions included. I am not going to say they are the easiest to follow instructions I've ever seen, but they are serviceable. Now I just have to keep track of them...You do end up with a long-ish string from which the tassel is hanging, which helps in terms of incorporating it into a piece of jewelry (or crochet, or whatever project you happen to be working on). The tassels work up quickly; I'd say I finished my first one in less than 10 minutes, and that was with frequent reference to the directions. I got faster as I figured out what I was doing. This is plastic and is not super substantial, but right now, after some use, the tracks you use to adjust tassel size are still working just fine and I don't think there is any danger of the plastic snapping with regular use. This is rigid and does not bend, and you do get consistent sizing, which is important for projects incorporating multiple tassels (e.g., knitting scarves and such). I'm probably going to go back and get the small one because I think that will suit me better. But this one will get used a fair amount, as well.

Great product! Will reorder.

5

Great value and quality. Cut 1/4" glass.

5

I was really impressed by this folder! It came out beautifully. I think I can use this in many ways, if anyone out there has any new ideas please let me know. It arrived rather quickly and packaged well.

5

This case is very useful. At the price of dies and stamps, it pays to take care of them.

5

great product for threads

5

i had to learn how to use these pencils.... first of all i found that i could only use the sharpener that came with the pencils...and one has to sharpen them before using them or else there will be great difficulty in getting the color to lay down on the paper....after i figured all of that out i have loved using these pencils and would recommend them to people.

4

Smells of the filler/ binder koi uses. Much more than pans.

2

Great variety of buttons with some super duper cute special pieces in each batch.

5

LOOK INTO THE LATIN MEANING

5

Great size. Smooth finish making it easy to work with

5

These make awesome headbands and hair clips! We bought these and have let our daughter help design some. Amazing! She is in love, and they are really a great bargain!

5

I got these for working with polymer clay. I don't use all of the pieces, but the price was so good it doesn't matter.

5

as expected, maybe a tad smaller then what I wanted but that is my mistake....not good with MM for measurements!

5

While I found these to be adorably cute they didn't actually fit my planner all that well and bent the cover and pages. I couldn't use them but they were an off brand to my planner . If you are an Erin Condren user pass on these otherwise they're cute.

3

Before I got this thread I made my own thread stand and it worked out great. And you can't beat the price

5

So fun! Great set of dies.

5

I ordered this by accident, I thought it was yarn and not roving, it is ok, I am sure I will find a use for it.

Initially I bought the set of 12ml tubes but the consistency of paint is as good as Golden heavy body ones and the colors go far too. Loved the consistency for the knife painting. Hence went ahead and got the larger pack of 21 ml tubes. However, check the colors that come with the pack. I normally paint lanscapes so this set is good for me and I can mix a lot of colors from the ones available in this set. But based on what you like to paint the choice of colors you want may change. I would still by a few colors from Golden but probably none that come in this set.

5

Some nice scrapers and dabbers in this set.i bought two sets keeping one set as a backup. Price is real reasonable for what you get.

4

Excellent value for money at less than $1.00 per spool. Colors match the color chart available from brother. You

This stuff is the bees knees. I purchased this for a Flame Princess cosplay, in the Ochre color, and I must say that it was absolutely perfect. This was my second attempt at a face paint for that character, with the first try ending up much more orange (think Cheeto) than the yellow-orange that I was going for. Ive now tried two different orange face/body paints, and I would say that this one is definitely the better choice. Ive attached a photo comparing our group cosplay, and the differences in color. This seems to be a wet-applied product, and it really needs generous amount of water before it becomes spreadable enough to use. I was dripping some water in at first, but then I quickly realized you basically need enough that it puddles inside the container. Its easily spreadable after that, either with a sponge or fingers. I only used one coat, then did touch ups around my arms and clavicle. When Ive used this, I do my face, entire arms, chest, and a little of my back, and there is still a good bit left. I probably used about 1/6 of it for the first application. Afterwards, I use a finishing spray to make sure it stayed on longer, so there wasn't a lot of sweat off the makeup this time. Really, that seems to be a key thing to do with this. Since its water-based, it comes off more easily when you sweat. I wore this in September in Georgia, so you can definitely expect I tried out its ability to stay fresh in humid, hot circumstances. Despite that, it all didn't come off in the shower. Some was still on my hands and fingernails, and my arm pits and the inner crease of my arm. And yes, I scrubbed with warm water and soap. PROS: -Easily spreadable with a (good) bit of water. -The PERFECT color for FP from Adventure Time. -I only used about 1/6 of it for the first application, so there is a good bit leftover. -I didn't experience any dry patches with this makeup, and my skin tends to be sensitive, which was a huge plus. The other body paint I used dried out parts of my face, which hurt, as you can imagine. CONS: -Rubbed off on my clothes more easily than the other face paint I tried. -Comes off when you sweat, so youll need to do something to keep it on. (Baby powder, finishing spray, hairspray)

Great dies. Nice size and cut beautifully.

5

After cutting paper, be patient. It takes time and more time to assemble a small house. I planned to build a Christmas village with this and other dies but its labor intensive to assemble. It makes a nice cute house.

Would be nice if a nail wasn't sticking out of it
