I was looking for rice paper for a journal project I am working on, and this is the one I selected. It works well as an addition to whatever types of paper you are working with. If you are a creative person and like to have mixed media supplies handy, then I'd suggest trying this paper. I've used it in paper-making, marbling and more. Do not let it soak in water for too-long, and keep a sponge or paper towels handy in the event of a spill. Taping the edges down and painting carefully will help keep the paper in place.

I have had a hard time finding longer (8-inch) double pointed needles so I was overjoyed when I found these. These are my very favorite kind of sock needles and I intend to get a selection of different sizes eventually.

I have went through many pencils sharpeners before I found this one. I love it works great on pastel and colored pencils great. this is definitely a rebuy. highly recommend.

Ordered this Sizzix die and was pleased by the overall size of the die when it arrived. It is a Bigz die, so it is a bit larger than the original red dies, but this bunny is large enough to be easy to work with for applique purposes. There are no extra cuts as you often times find in Sizzix dies that are mainly aimed at paper cutting. The die consists of one part - the body. Great size for applique without being too fussy and small. Typical Sizzix - great product!

The pretty scallops lever punch in the xx-large was perfect for the project I was working on. I punched many scallops out of construction paper and used them to create a frame around an 8x10 photo. I overlayed the scallops to frame the photo and used different colors of construction paper. I sent the frame to a friend for a gift and she was so excited to have something bright and useful sent to her in the mail. I would recommend this punch for those crafters out there.

a lot of brush for the money. I'm an oil painter, and these would best be used for watercoloring. However, I have become a more frequent user especially in the small sizes for detail. They clean up well, and they hold their point!

I LOVE THESE MARKERS, I NEVER HAD A SET LIKE THESE BEFORE, I always had Prismacolor brand, but these are worth it, if your a true artist. All of my markers were working nicely. If i were to save up for another set i would!! yay!!! I Love them!!!

Really cute and easy to work with all the dies. Looking forward to using it frequently.

Not easy to use. The wheels don't seem to hit at the same time. I have to push down really hard to get it to work.

Really glad to get elastic in 3". The elastic is very good and sews well. Will be ordering more.

The color transferred to my fingers and made my exzema flare up is rougher than the other colors of same brand yarn. Havent washed it yet am afraid it will bleed a lot.

These are the best bead containers I've ever used, and I've used the gamut. I've tried everything over the years, and this line of containers (not just this size, but all the sizes) is the best line ever. I've converted my bead group and they all use this storage system too. :) The sizes offer a variety of storage options, and I buy a few here and there as add-on items every chance I get.

I love this punch. I works well and I can make some fun cards with it. I would recommend it to anyone.

They are ok but is hard to really know the colors pigments are really dark not my favorite palette

This is my second time purchasing these beads and they are perfect for my jewelry projects. This is one of my favorite products.

I love this bottle. It is my new e-juice VG/PG mixing bottle. Soft enough to squeeze, but strong enough to not collapse. The cap seals tight. This bottle would be great for shampoos and other bulk liquids.

This is a bright neon pink! Definitely NOT the pink pictured here! So unhappy with this! Not at all the pink I was expecting so sad!

These alcohol inks are very intense and the colors blend together, never losing their vibrancy. They are fun to use and I love
the end results I get with them.

gave this as a gift - one of the charcoal pencils was broken - thankfully i had some and gave the kid mine - otherwise it was a big hit

Great tape! Easy to use.

Needles and cord are correctly sized, the steel of the needles is very smooth and stitches slide across easily when knitting in the round. I would recommend these for hat making. my only complaint is that the needles themselves are a bit shorter than I would've liked, which makes them slightly awkward to hold.

These are terrific colored pencils! These are water soluble too and can be for watercoloring in my coloring books. I did a small picture using them dry and the application was very smooth and the colors were rich with great coverage. Then I did a small floral picture where I colored it dry then used a watercolor brush and a Q-Tip to apply water over the pencils. It came out beautifully! I really trust these watercolor pencils for both dry and watercolor effects. They come in a really nice stand-alone metal holder so you can select the pencils easily and mine were well-packed. These are going to be great for get-away weekends as they are such good performers and travel so nicely in their slim metal holder with a piece of foam in the lid to prevent breakage. I got 48 great pencils for only $20 on Amazon. A great purchase!

Not much you can say about construction paper. This is a good thickness and works great for the things my 7 year old needs construction paper for. As another reviewer said, it's not a dark black, but a dark greyish black. But was happy to find the longer size since even the crafts stores out here didn't have any in this size.
Shipped quickly.

I needed space to keep my most used sewing notions and this is the perfect choice. It's not small, its depth inside is enough to keep most of my stuff. It comes with a tray that sits on top, where I keep my needles and buttons. I'm considering of getting another one for my niece who is beginning to sew.

4 stars instead of five because I have bought about 10-15 of these for our office and the magnet strip on the top on ALL OF THEM keeps falling off. easily fixed though with double sided tape. I recommend the titanium blade packs, they seem to last longer and keep that super sharp edge you need in design work.

First time I used it, I was like...WOW! Where have you been all my life. Sewing just got a whole lot easier.

Anything to do with making jewelry. I learn something new from all, and it's great to me.

These are the standard plastic Play doh tools that have been around for quite a few years. They work great and the kids I work with love them!

This was a great item to purchase. It has helped me improve so much.

Great thick yarn for cold winters. I made a few hats and hoods for my kids and nieces, and I have requests from several others for more! Tons of color options, washable, and super soft. I'll definitely be getting more

not sure why it took me so long to purchase this color, but I am loving this for 'antiquing' the edges of card stock projects. Great price and great product, plus the usual great Amazon fulfillment keeps me happy, too.

I have all the SN colors and I love them. They blend well, have good pigment, and are enjoyable to color with. I highly recommend these markers. There are a few colors missing in the blending families, but I can find colors to subsitute.

With all the comments regarding how shiny these are, I expected them to be flashy. In my opinion they aren't nearly as shimmery as other people commented; however, they do have some shimmer. I am happy with the purchase. No glitter on these, just mildly shimmery. But, I guess it really is just person opinion. Happy with the purchase. I layered them and they turned out nice on a card.

Some of the best markers out there at a decent price. They do run out fairly quick though. More cost effective then copics in the short term, but less so in the long term, since they're not refillable. I do refill the colorless one with 90% isopropyl alcohol, and that extends its life a bit. You can stretch them all with isopropyl alcohol, but that tends to weaken the color a lot. It's better to just replace them. I might try copics in the future, though I've heard the nibs tend to not last very long, especially when you use them on things other than paper. I use these on playmats, and the nibs hold up really well. If you control your pressure really well, you can get a much finer line with the brush tip than with the chisel or even the fine tip. For super fine detail, I might try filling a fountain pen with copic inks. That is one thing that frustrates me: the really small markers like the microns are only available in a few colors. I really wish that the tiny ended markers were available in all these colors. Hopefully prismacolor will come out with a set soon. Also you can get some amazing effects when you brush on some isopropyl alcohol to the surface you are drawing on, either before or after laying down the color with these, especially on play mats. If you use paper with a glossy sizing, you can get some other cool effects. Using this on plastic is really good too, as you can push the colors around and blend them really nicely, just be sure to use a fixitive when you're done.

Great for making jewelry-to tie a knot in this stuff, look on Youtube and it will tell you to order E6000 Craft Adhesive, 2 oz which I ordered too and it works wonderfully!

I have used a little over half of this yarn and they have tied four different sections together. I will not buy this yarn again.

Very easy to use...works as described and makes it easy to see the design that needs to be transferred. The light box itself is great because it is so thin. Would recommend.

Very nice Prima paper. I'm relatively new to using Prima's papers -- I'm a Graphic 45 junkie -- but this collection is quite nice and has a great European design flare. The paper weight is suited to paper crafting and the colors are good. The colors are actually better on the 12 x 12 papers, but these are fine.
I also love that this Debutante paper collection is a little less whimsical than many of their other "fairy" papers. Nice colors in this collection as well. There will always be pinks, but this collection is full of yellows, beiges and blue/grays, which is a fun change of pace. Glad I found this one.

Another product I purchased for bible journaling. For bible journaling it is very important to find products that will not bleed through the delicate bible pages and this ink pad was highly recommended. I did have some bleed through but I think it is because the ink pad is so saturated. I think it will be fine with more use. Great product!

Thermoweb is great for applying appliqués before sewing around the edge. It securely adheres to all types of materials.

Like so many of Crayola's products -- particularly their color pencils -- the fact that they're associated with children's art means they can't, and don't, charge the laughably outrageous prices you'd see for "professioinal" art supplies, even though their products are often of professional quality. But these pastels, while they may not compare with the absolute highest-end, $25-for-a-handmade-stick pastels, are absolutely comparable to Caran D'Ache and other artists' pastels. I'm really happy with the color selection, the texture, and the feel of the sticks in my hand. I'm an avid amateur artist, art school degree and all, and my five-year-old and I love using these. And that's another great thing about these -- because they're so cheap and sturdy, my boy can use them with abandon. We have the greatest time.
If your child hasn't moved up to oil pastels, consider these. The texture is nothing like crayons. It's a very sensuous experience blending and creating solid blocks of bright color -- your kid will love it. And so will you. Tip: Consider using sturdy paper that can take watercolor, drawing with these pastels, and overwashing with Crayola Washable Watercolors. The watercolors won't stick to the pastels, and the overall effect is really interesting. My boy and I have done some amazing and very colorful artworks this way. His walls are now decorated with our efforts!

These buttons are exactly as they are pictured! I got 135 in my bag & they are all very uniform in width with the exception of 2 which are considerably thinner, but I am still very satisfied as there are so many in each pack. The detailing is very nice & precise. I love them! I can't wait to start using them on my daughters clothes!

These zippers are fantastic. They have metal teeth and a metal pull. And they are invisible, so you really don't see the color of them when using them. They are only 7" long, but that makes them perfect for children's clothing and pillows. They are also good for a side zipper in a woman's garment. You can't beat the price for 50 zippers! At Joanns or other like stores, you are paying over $2 a zipper, thus making these worth over $100 easily. Can't beat the savings!

The main reason for my three stars is that the top does not stay closed properly. Only small things fit, and the plastic top bends out a bit when the unit is carried by the handle. Everything ends up a mess, and there is no way to prevent this from happening. While it is something I can tolerate, I know it would be a problem for most people. It shouldn't happen, and it's poorly designed.
My personal reason for the three stars is for a very different reason. I can cope with the mess, and would cope even better if I loved the product. But I was so disappointed with this purchase. I had a hard time choosing, and ultimately ended up getting the one with both top and bottom divided. I do mostly papercrafts, and thought this would be great for stamps, ink, embossing powders and all kinds of little accessories, brads, glues and tapes, was hi tape, ephemera, etc. But, the divisions are so small that I have almost nothing that fits. I'd hoped to keep stamps on the top so I could see what I have, but only the tiniest fit. Was hi tapes don't fit nicely anywhere. Most embossing powders are too big. I do keep some paint pens on top, and a few things like paper clips and tacks. But even my smallest pieces aren't the right shape for any compartment.
The bottom slots are too narrow and deep. I keep my stamps there, but they piled on top of each other and I still have to shuffle through. My few larger Inkadinkado stamps don't fit at all. Post cards don't fit. My small heat gun hardly fits.
I do have a very small selection of beading supplies, perhaps enough to fill both of the side compartments. But I already have those stored nicely, and I've never found any other use for the side compartments. If I was really into beading, or even something like knitting or needlepoint, where many supplies are squishy, this might be good. But for papercrafts of any type, this box will fit very few of the things you use frequently. It would be much better to get one without divided compartments, or even better, get a different model entirely. ArtBin makes some amazing stuff.

Very nice product. These essential jewelry supplies add so much to necklaces and/or bracelets - and this product is good quality and a good buy.

I can't imagination life without this now. While some people use this for their oil paintings, I use this on my color pencils to give it a more watercolor painted look. I find it really allows the pigment to soaked in the pages.
~~~~~~Some notes from what I have observed ~~~~~
If you would like your color to spread around more like an oil pastel, use soft color pencil. Hard color pencil does blend into the paper, however there is less pigment to spread around overall. Also depending what you are using the distilled turpentine on, you should debate if you need to use a brush for line textures (examples: tables, trees, long hair). Or even a cotton swab for a more smooth look by circling the pigment around. You can place more color pencil on it once it tries, but that is up to you as artist.
Also it smells, but you can work with it (just don't use too much or leave it open).
In the picture i shared, the fish are colored in soft color pencil lead the blue back ground is hard lead. Right below the first present is soft lead with the rocks. When treated the soft lead could run into the hard lead spots with turpentine but barely the other way around.

For those looking for a ribbon punch get the one from Fiskers. It's easy to punch AND it works perfectly with 3/8" ribbon. The slots are also a little closer together than the Martha Stewart one. It's also cheaper at $11 from Staples.

A lot of times my yarn gets snagged on the slits. Other cheap plastic U shapes are probably easier to use.

These are adorable! They are brighter than the picture shows, so they're easy to see. They work like little safety pins and are much easier to use than other stitch markers I've bought before.
They take a little longer than Prime orders to arrive, but they are worth the wait.

At age 65 I began to feel some pain when I gripped the larger crochet hooks. They seemed to rub against the ligaments and joints thus causing discomfort and sometimes pain.
I really was not sure this device would help but it was worth the effort to try.
I have been very pleased with this Boye Ergonomic Aluminum Crochet Hook Handle. It holds my hooks (the whole array of sizes) snugly inside the device. The holder itself is very pleasant to hold. First, it is neither cold nor warm, it is a neutral temperature. It has a slight 'tacky' feel allows it to stay firmly placed in my grip.
It was a bit awkward to use at first, but that slowly vanished in about an hour.
Best of all? MY HAND DOES NOT HURT!!! SUCCESS!!
I highly recommend this handle to crocheters and I have sent some as Christmas gifts to my crocheting friends.
Negatives? None.

I normally read customers reviews however I did not on this one. I do regret it. Once you buy this you are stuck with this because the seller has a no return policy. I am guessing because they know this product is not what you are expecting. Save your money. This package is very tiny with about 20 beads. I am so unhappy with this product.

Bought this for my granddaughter for her birthday.

I may have have written once before, but as I use it more and more, I would not like to return to using a pocket knife blade or toothpick. I love this 'thang'; it goes where no chop stick could go; right in and nearly under the pressure foot and you are in control! I have been sewing for more than 65 years and sure wish I had had it for the past 65 years. I had a number of quirky little tools for the 'squinchy' areas where you need just the right tool - well the 'thang' is perfect tool for those 'squinchy' areas. It is easy to misplace so; I wrapped it in bright orange tape - and also put a straightened paperclip under the tape, making it magnetic and will stick to a little magnet stuck to the sewing desk. Now I can see it and know where it is at all times. Hope this helps. If they made it bright orange and put a tiny magnet in it, that would enhance it, but it's easy to do yourself.

It is a nice cutter. It has its disadvantages in that I can not cut longer bottles, however it has it advantages as well. I think having one of these in your tool room is a great idea. Its easy to use and if you are cutting shorter bottles its a must to have..

These are heavier than the wonder clips in the sewing catalogs. Stronger springs, and SO MUCH CHEAPER for a 100 no less.

For that reason I'll not be useing that brand again

I have had this for 2 years now and use almost everyday at work. Super easy to use.

I know this cutter is inexpensive, so I am not going to judge it against my Gingher rotary cutter. However, this one just doesn't cut that well. I wanted to use it for a very small project and it was rather unusable. Even when cutting through one piece of fabric it cuts very unevenly.

A couple of the pencils were cracked and a couple of the colors are repeated.

I love K&Company products but I was disappointed in this Engraved Garden Ephemera pack. I had hoped for more images I associate with gardens. This pack included vintage images: old bicycles, several fans, medallions, a camera, couch, chandelier etc. The product description calls it "Ephemera Cardstock Die-Cuts." Only a third of the package images are card stock, the rest are printed acetate images that will not stick well or invisibly with glue or adhesive. In all fairness, when examining the package, there is a pictorial index of images and an apt description of them on the back of the package. But buying online, I did not handle the package so it would be nice if the product description was more in depth.
Bottom line- a quality product but not what was described in the online product description, nor what I was looking for.

It is great to have this product for my cuttlebug. It makes things much easier to get started on my projects.
As always with Amazon I get my purchases in a timely fashion.

I love this Windsor and Newton Metallic Marker set. I keep art journals and love to do some artwork everyday. Love the colors and the choice between fine and broad points. This brand is well respected with many artists and I love working with these.
