*Update to my original post. I just put a new bobbin in my machine last night and the sewing was terrible. I had nothing but trouble. I threaded and re-threaded trying to fix it. I kept having issues with it either not sewing at all or the top thread looping on the surface. I don't know why that happened. This is the 2nd bobbin I've used from this box and the 1st one worked fine. I don't know what happened with the 2nd one, but as soon as I put in a bobbin that I wound with the Brother thread that came with the machine, it sewed beautifully with the same top thread I had been trying to use. I really have no idea what happened, but it was very frustrating until I changed bobbins.

does the job. water and alcohol only clean so well if your writing for for too long, even if you wash right after use. I recommend to keep around if you want to take care of your nibs.

I am also using these with the Sennelier pastels, both oil and chalk. I use these on the bottom and work up to the Senneliers. I think these are very good and the price is just great. The Senneliers are wonderful but terribly expensive. If you need to bypass the Senneliers entirely due to cost, I think you could get a remarkable amount accomplished just using these. If you can afford to get the Senneliers, then get these in addition to them. I also am getting more of a color selection by using both brands.

this item was exactly what I needed to repair my sewing machine but I am already having problems with it.

Beautiful watercolor. A small amount of this highly pigmented paint goes a very long way. Love M Graham watercolors!

This bottle set is pretty handy and with the needle is the cap, the glue doesn't clog up the tip and doesn't dry up.

I love this. Good quality for plating and make very pretty earrings.

It was a good deal. I could not get it any cheaper in my neighborhood. I like these clasp on chains, easier to use.

I order about 6 or 7 items at the same time, I was please with all the purchase I made. The only problem I have is to comment on that many items at one time.

I bought these jump rings to use where an oval ring would look better. These pretty much have to be opened the way everybody recommends, but they close well. The closure is on the side, and not on an end, so they hold up very well to wear and tear. I recommend them as very handy.

I love adding tiny floral arrangements to my greeting cards and keepsake boxes, there's a lot of versatility in this set.

I have used this before so it isn't new to me. The store around where I live stopped selling it and I was worried about being able to find it , Amazon saved the day. If you are a crafter like me you know how attached we get to something that works great and we love so going without isn't a option...lol The price wasn't to bad either and shipping was fast. It arrived with no damage and was packaged securely . If you are someone who has never tried it ,get some you will love the effect you get with it. I like making worn or shabby looking picture frames, dollhouse furniture , real furniture, and even on painted mason jars. There is almost no end to what you can do with it.

I use this for hairbows, amd for the price and what you get! Let me just say, this roll will last me a very long time!

Using this cane on my first attempt to recane an old chair. So far, so good. Half the "fun" was getting the cane untangled initially. Recommend getting the whole bundle wet and then slowly untangle into individual pieces that can then be recoiled for storage.

Not enough color slots. The tray in the lid is enough for mixing color. The two big slots on the color side should be devised into 12 slots. Made well however. Nice hard plastic, good latch to close box.

Handy for small crochet appliqués. Wide variety of colours available through getting different packs.

Works well, but not as easy to roll on carpet as I had thought it would be... But, still much easier than without the wheel assembly.

Good quality. The listing states 1-1.3 mm thick which is 18-19 gauge; stronger than your average split rings. I wish all sites would list the gauge along with mm thick. I really like the small rings as they are hard to find elsewhere. I have to admit I was a bit confused when I received them. I didn't read the description carefully and just saw "jump ring", not "double jump ring". Most other companies call them split ring, so my bad for not reading carefully. I will keep them anyway as they are nice quality, I just need to go shopping for regular jump rings now.

I have three boys...and have purchased many expensive art sets. Oldest kid got a fancy and expensive one when he was 6ish, and totally wasted it. Didn't appreciate it. Got him another when he was around 10 and he took good care of it. Second boy got a medium quality set when he was 6ish, same deal, he really didn't appreciate it. Waited until he was 10 before he appreciated a good set of art stuff. (The best stuff is never usually sold together, so generally you aren't going to get top of the line in a kit).
Latest kid, now 8, LOVES this set. It's not expensive, the price was great, and it's ideal for his age. Everything has worked well (even the stapler). The colors are bright and vivid. I have discovered that the paper used makes a difference. I bought some thick watercolor paper and it makes his watercolor work look much more impressive.
So, it's not the perfect set, but he's not ready for that. And when he is ready, I can either buy separately according to his interests or get a more expensive set.
And, this is a great general gift (boy/girl) to have around for emergency gift-giving.
The case is great too, I can see it holding art papers later when we are done with the supplies. AND, they can paint the outside box if they want.

I don't know why I didn't think of it before ordering, but these have absolutely no lines or measurements on them. As a result, it takes a bit more time to get things square/same sized. Otherwise, great mats and as described.

Beautiful fabric collection. Ten inch squares are so easy to work with, especially when they are from a collection so beautiful as this is.

This is a very good quality bobbin case. It is still working great after a year. I am happy with this purchase and will recommend it to others.

These do not work as I anticipated. Maybe I don't know how to work them properly, but the only way I can put them on the bracelet is to cut them first.

This is a nice zipper, and in a length that I could not find locally.

Good for what they are. I like them better than the Crayola Portfolio Series Oil Pastels. They are buttery like the Porfolio Oil Pastels, but these don't seem to dry out like the Portfolio Pastels.

Another of the zyron products and they are the greatest\
Easy to use, and the brick & mortor stores are poor at carying the refills
all of my refills come from Amazon.
Great prices, service and delivery

As I've mentioned in some of my other reviews, I love Embroidex products and these bobbin cones were no exception. I've experienced no difficulty winding, using, or securing these threads. No breakage issues yet, either. The cones are enormous as previously noted, I keep my thread in an Ikea Alex unit so I just lay them on their side with no issues. Will reorder when the time comes!

Perfect for the scarves I crocheted.

Kit is complete, easy to do. Ornaments are large enough for easy handling.

I got this for weedingvinyl Ive cut with my silhouette. This works the best! Its small enough to hold on my lap and large enough to hold the vinyl I cut! Its nice and bright! Perfect

just what I need for my yarn work, sometimes using those tight stitches to make little animals or baskets, the other rings would fall out and I would loose my place crocheting in the circle, these hold on! Love it!

I bought this for my baby shower. We were doing a BBQ and burlap just went with it. When I first opened the package there was a weird smell. It went away after I aired it out for a day. Also, two of the flags were not the same size as the others and were crooked which is why I gave it four stars. I made it work for my banner however and it turned out great.

I learned to use various graphite pencils when I took my second art class a year or so ago. Great addition to my art supply.

These are great! I first bought the bag with fewer colors, but bigger skeins that is sold by this company. I loved it for adding colors to bigger projects that it was silly to buy a full skein of yarn for.
I also made handles and drawstrings from the mesk bags you get produce in, so I could reuse them for other things.
I have recently gotten into amigurumi and these little skeins are great for creating little animals and their costumes with. I'm going to add this to my subscribe and save list so I always have them on hand for any project that might come up.
Haven't looked at the books yet, have had too many projects of my own to do.

I love Liquid Pearls. I am thrilled that it does not clog up ever! I am trying to find out which is the lighter shade of pink: blush, petal pink, or ballerina.

I belong to a group at my church that makes prayer shawls. One style is triangular that starts at the small end and increases. It's fine, to a point, to use straight knitting needles but it does reach the size where the 36" circular needle is needed. It is so very easy to transfer from the straight needles to the circular one due to the accuracy of the needle sizes as both are Clover Takumi Bamboo. I don't start on the circular needle since it tends to coil up. I wait until the shawl has reached a certain size to do the transfer.

I have not tried this at this time but it is small enough to be really comfortable while using.

This is awesome deal! Hope they keep this price.

Exactly what I expected to receive.

This is a great set, and a good value. The sticks were a bit broken up, but that's shipping. I'd recommend.

Worked perfect for my lanyards

Bought these to use on tiny amigurimi owls. They are a great quality but they are difficult to snap together. I had to brace them against a table to push the backing on to the safety eye. With some patience (and some elbow grease) they are perfect for small crocheted items.

I wish that since they went to the trouble of putting it in a box with padding, that the box and the padding hadn't fallen apart and ripped when I first ordered the product. I would like to be able to continue to store it in the box, but it is just floating around loose in there. It does light up. It can get quite bright. The light is consistent across the pad with no spotting or flickering. The control is nebulous. You just keep touching it to get to the next lightest setting. One has to just press and hold and keep holding it for it to get brighter. ADD: After using this light pad I have to agree with some other reviews that the pad does turn itself off incessantly. At first I thought I was bumping the power switch. So I flipper the pad the opposite direction to use it so my hand would be no where near the power button. The problem persisted. Since then I noticed that even when I holding a random edge (no where near the power switch) to set the pad on the table it turns off and on. The power switch is not an actually a switch. It is just a symbol printed on the perfectly flat tablet. I have come to think that the "active" area for turning the pad on and off extends well beyond the symbol. How far, I can't tell. But it turns itself on and off when I am touching the side next to the side with the power button symbol, which is a different side altogether. I used this light pad for a fairly laborious project. I must say that after a while, the constant, sudden shut down of power is annoying at bet and does interfere with my ability to use the light pad for its intended purpose. I finally finished my project with my old "Light pad". I taped my work to the kitchen window. The question I asked myself is, "Is this tablet better than the kitchen window?" My answer, "Only when it is dark out." After trying to use this product for some real work, I found it simply can't hold up to just consistent functioning. A light pad that keeps going dark doesn't seem so much like a light pad. I tried to like this product. I shopped around before choosing. I was trying to use my Amazon Prime and avoid shipment from China. In the end, I simply cannot recommend this product. I regret the purchase. Update Sep 2017. Tried to use it several more times. It shut off every few seconds. Just not able to use it for intended function! Your better off with using a window for certain!

Nice firm nibs. Not fuzzy like other calligraphy markers I've tried. Ink dries fast and it's smudge proof!

I needed a pincushion that stays put on the arm of my upholstered chair. I do a lot of needle work with numerous needles carrying different colors. I just pin opposing "petals"....with the quilting pins that came with the pincushion....and it's right there at my fingertips with plenty of room. Plus, it's cute.

This quilting foot fits my Brother machine and it doesn't say it does. It is great because you can see the stitches better than the plastic one. Wonderful design.

Ruined my white bench! It is not clear it dried BLUE! See photos of the proof! Now I have to figure out how to get the blue wax off my bench and repaint it after spending a lot of time painting it 3 coats of white I have to redo it all over again when I should have been done! Waste of time and money!!

Bulk measuring tape, it's pretty thin but I'm not rough on it. I lose my tapes CONSTANTLY so this is perfect for me. Markings are accurate.

Bought two bags, one to place in hen house and the other to have on hand. I have young hens just about ready to lay eggs, so I placed five in the nesting box to show them where they should lay their eggs. They started moving the eggs all over the coop, so I removed three and set them aside and left two which I move from one next to the other and back again, and all six young hens eventually started laying eggs, usually in the nest with the two wooden eggs. I wish I had thought of looking for this item this summer when my last hen was broody and setting on non-fertile eggs, I would have replaced each egg with these as it was quite gross to remove her real old eggs when it was time to introduce store bought chicks for her to adopt as her own. These would have made the job easier. The hens starting to lay are the brood gave her to adopt. I can imagine using these eggs for other things also, decorating or darning socks as some one recommended, which is why I bought a second pack. Good buy, good price.

I had just lost or misplaced my last pair of scissors that I keep on hand to use for everyday tasks. So I bought this pack to replace that pair.

This is such a huge step up from the $14 cheap-o version!
I purchased and used a cheaper version, and it died after approximately 5 hours of use. It seemed like a fine idea to go with that product when I was not convinced that I would utilize this tool frequently. It was not, and here is why:
1. The low-end version did not have an insulated grip like this product does. The whole product is designed to have a power cable feed into a heating element that is encased in plastic. The less insulation there is between your skin and that heating element - the more uncomfortable (and impossible) it is to use. GET THE INSULATED GRIP!
2. Tip options are important. If you buy the low-end version you get an additional 2 or 3 tip options and your imagination stops pretty much right there. Spend a few dollars more for this product and you will quickly realize that this is a Versa tool - not just a "wood burning" tool. The tips, combined with the adjustable temperature, open up a world of possibilities beyond wood!
3. Adjustable Temperature is essential - even if you are only working with wood.
I would have given this product 5 stars but there is one slight design element that I would like to see changed. The distance between the temperature control and the handle is not well thought out. The location does not make it impossible to use, but there could be some adjustments to improve the user experience.

The needles themselves are pretty good, but I was constantly worried about where the nylon line connected to the base of the needles. It stayed in place for the entirety of a project, though, so maybe it's just me worrying too much.

Small but strong.

It is what it says it is, so what more can you ask. It is very solidly made and quite hefty. The ring sizers that come with it are plastic, so not completely pleased about that.

Same as the Niji 12mm water brush but costs less. I bought both and they are identical. The Kuretake Zig package is in Japanese and the Niji package is in English. Why pay an extra $4 for a package in English? It's the same brush.

I love the small size of these magnets. They are not the strongest earth magnets. I used them for my needle holders in Needlepoint. The backs are attracted to other metals and pull off the fanvas holder. Other earth magnets hold very tight to the partner magnet and stay inract.

This die set is very intricate and the details in the etching really pop when the die is cut out of a lighter card stock and layered over a darker piece.

Fair warning : I'm going to gush a little.
This thing is amazing. Really. Even if you're not very crafty, this tool lets you do some pretty awesome things. Of any tool I've seen, I really think this comes the closest to bridging the gap between what you imagine you want vs. what you actually end up making.
The versatility is astounding. Yes, you get a blade with it, and basically if you find a shape online (or purchased from the Silouette store) you can cut it out on a sheet of paper. Or adhesive (make stickers!). Or heat-transfer paper...making easy iron-on logos for shirts. More on that...want some easy jerseys for your four year old's soccer team? Maybe a beer league football club? Hey, do you find yourself volunteering for your kid's scout troop and you want some cool t-shirts for a camp outing? This thing lets you do all that and more.
We were making cupcakes one night and were trying for some really neat decorations (the toppings just HAD to look like superhero logos for a party) and inspiration struck. We found some paper-like fondant kind of stuff at the local Michael's (update...not really fondant, but actually like this: Wilton 710-2912 Multipack Sugar Sheets), so we downloaded the Batman logo and fed it and the "paper" into the Cameo. Boom, in about 30 seconds we had a crisp, clean, and edible logo for a cupcake. Different colors allow for layering, like with the Superman logo...yep, we cut one sheet in yellow with the background, and one in red with the S logo. Put the two on top of each other and bang. We even did Captain America, and for that we got fancy...cut concentric circles in the different colors, one circle in blue with the star logo cut out, then a white star - they all fit perfectly together in one layer.
Worried about the thickness of your media? Don't be. The Cameo has a nice adjustable blade that made these projects I've described go very smoothly. Adjustable rollers keep the media going in smoothly. Very easy to go from fabric to paper.
It's like a plotter, but with tons more versatility. Yes, you can replace the blade with a pen and instead of cutting, you can sketch things out. Want to create appliques for a room-decorating project? No problem. It can really do very intricate work.
Setup was ridiculously easy, and there is an included DVD that tells you all you need to know. While you get the most versatility if you use the computer with it, you can opt to load images/shapes off a card instead. The machine is wide enough to accept a wide variety of media - the 12" cutting mat gives you plenty of space to work with. It works pretty quickly too.
So yeah, sorry if I'm gushing. I'm just very appreciative of tools that allow normal folks to get results that even 10 years ago you'd need professional equipment to accomplish. It's that good. Get one - you'll soon find lots of things to make with it.

Very happy with this machine, not even three hours out of the box and Ive already done 10 shirts with ease. The included Teflon sheet is a little bigger than the press itself so you can throw it in and drop the top without worrying about placement of it. Would buy again without thinking twice. A+
