These needles seem to be on mostly on the small size, which is fine if you can handle a small needle expertly.

I'm extremely dissatisfied with these blades. Every one I have used has some nick in it and does not cut cleanly. I think I was sent previously used blades. I would NOT buy anymore.

This took a bit of getting used to. It's bigger than I expected and a bit bulky, but it actually works much better than I expected! I would recommend this product to other crafters!

Well it's nice to find 100% cotton. But I wish you could get them in all one color and more of a choice of colors. The spool is so wound so tightly that it keeps breaking while sewing. It makes it very hard to wind a bobbin. But it does the job .

Melts nicely. Doesn't hold scent well at

My favorite. It is repositionable for awhile after applying it, then becomes permanent.

Love! This stuff is amazing and used to decorate an ice chest for my hubby for Father's Day.

My brother pe500 HATES IT. Would cause nesting. Not sure if it is the thread they used or if it was the way it was wound. Had to use the brother bobbing thread 90 weight that came with my machine and wind it myself. It did not wind right but it worked every time where these did not so I assume it is the quality of thread they are using.

The bird is really cute! It is a nice size for a card and you can make it the color or colors you want.

I love the set but size 5 double points are missing

Very pretty, sheer ribbon. I used it for gifts and my daughter bought the same ribbon and used it to decorate several things for her daughter's first birthday party.

These are good for making your own ribbon.

Don't believe the directions. They say to fill the pen "completely", squeezing the Blending solution 2-3 times to do so. And when I tried the pen out on some dried alcohol ink to the side of my work, all it did was drip, drip, drip. I would have ruined my work if I had trusted those lousy directions.
I then poured it all out....but of course more drip, drip, drip since the tip is now saturated based on their terrible, project-ruining directions.
Sure, I'm going to hold the nib down on a paper towel to get the liquid out, but to give directions that could ruin someone's work equals one star.

Use it all the time in my sewing.

Nice sharp well balanced little scissors for a great price. I have a variety of scissors collected throughout life time and these guys stack up to much more ecpensive german shears.
| 5
|
Good size for trying the product to see if you like it. Product is straw colored in the container but dries clear and shiny. You can color it with alcohol markers after it dries. I wouldn't use it as glue, as there are no many other things out there that work just as well that are much less expensive.

First blade used so far so good. Easily cut through 8 layers of fabic. No problems noted at all. Would buy these again. Vendor is attentive. If there is a problem you contact them for replacement and don't have to send them the problem blade.
| 5
|
Extremely easy to use. I am so glad I purchase this product.
| 5
|
got exactly what I was wanting. These seem better than what I expected.
Will order from this selling again when I need more.
| 5
|
I returned this. They say you have to get used to it. I spend a whole day working on that and gave up. Waste of time.
| 1
|
Happy to have a generous supply at home that I can work with as I need it. Fewer trips to the fabric store.
| 5
|
considering you get 1,000 for the price, they are fine, just not cleanly made. They are tiny though so the flaws are not very visible when they are used with other beads, etc.

Really cool effect for embossing. Gives the finished product an aged texture.

I'm an abstract painter that throws, splatters, and experiments with lots of different abstract tools to apply my paint. I purchased this brush hoping for a "new" or "different" affect from the various tools I already have. I really found nothing special about this brush when used to splatter acrylic, soft body to high flow paint. I could reproduce the same affects with a brush. I also compared the patterns this brush produces compared to the Brushes drummers use. Metal and plastic, produce the same affect as this brush, the advantage with a drummers brush is its adjustable. My personal opinion and experience with throwing paint is that the results depend more on the consistency of the paint than the tool your using to apply it with. Also the distance you stand from canvas, and the amount of force you use to swing the brush. And of corse how much paint you put on the brush before you swing it. I'm not total dissatisfied with having this brush in my tool collection, but it really didn't provide a "WOW" factor.

love this product. I purchased it for making baskets and needed a good straight measure on corners. This worked PERFECTLY and you can't beat the price. I use it almost daily and love it.

Just what I needed to make easy bias tape. Easy to use

I used canson watercolor paper for some works before and I thought it is okay for small water color illustrations. I am not sure the paper will holds well if you want to apples wet multiple brush strokes.
I am not giving 2starts for now not because this papers quality, I haven't used this paper long and often enough to give review about it. I am complain about handing. When company sale product like this, I think they should understand the product should be good condition for art work. I received today and one of pad conner was creased. It is not only a few papers are damaged. It looks like someone dropped the pad and one said of pad had some scratch marks on. The scratch marks made pad bent and leaved some brownish black marks as well. I am going to return and order again... hope that not happen again.

I was very excited to get these metallics. I've heard the pros and cons of Vallejo from fiercely loyal citadel, reaper, and Vallejo fans. I have absolutely no loyalties to any brands, and I judge paints based only on how well they work for me as a miniature painter. That being said, I am not that pleased with these paints. The only one that I received from this set that was usable for me was the dark bronze color (forgot the name). Every other color was just very inconsistent and did not cover well at all. It could be that I just got a bad batch, but I kind of doubt that's the case. I've found that the Vallejo model air metallics work much better for me. I never thought that I'd say that I prefer something from citadel over Vallejo, but it seems that citadel has the upper hand on metallics...at least for me. Hopefully some of you have a better experience than me!

very sharp have used some this past week and doesn't seem to have any nicks in the blade like some do after using a bit. Would buy again.

I really enjoy the Sculpey brand and this was no different. I got this for my sister for jewelry making and we have been having a blast with this stuff. Doesn't dry out but cures wonderfully.

Bought this to try and dye a wig black, and it just tinted it a bit to make it slightly darker. Not very opaque and the coloring went on unevenly.

Very happy with these, I don't have to pull out my big mats, just for a smaller project. Very pleased.
| 5

Like others, I don't like getting assorted sizes. These went into inventory.

Useful for its purpose, but there's a LOT of it. Might find other useful purposes for the rest of it, too, but that'll take some time, I suppose. It is sturdy and good quality.

Great font and size for cards an scrapbooks.

My wife is increasingly getting into knitting and really enjoyed these needles. Now she's making all sorts of circular knits, and has nothing but good things to say about the ease of use and durability of these needles...

The cable is very flexible, making the needles very easy to work with. The needle points are sharp enough to work easily with any yarn

Update 1/13/16 - Still loving this drum for my yarn and notion stash and the periwinkle is lovely. To help make it stand up just a bit better I added these http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B003FBSZBM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_2&smid=AFE6KTOZFDN44, taped together, end to end. They are just a bit taller than the bottom (they could be trimmed easily) of the drum and provide great stability for those who are having difficulties with it collapsing. Very lightweight, inexpensive, and sturdy fix. Still zips closed perfectly. Package comes with two and they fit almost perfectly end to end. I used regular packing tape, but use what you have. I wasn't having collapse issues, just wanted firmer sides.
I got this for a very good price elsewhere without the pouch. Not an issue for me since I have many available pouches already and the price was very nice. If not for that I would have purchased it on Amazon, my favorite place to shop. I like everything about the ArtBin Yarn Drum except for the wrinkles created by the way it is packaged. Since it is placed collapsed in a small plastic bag, there are large, visible wrinkles all over it. If not for the wrinkles I'd give it 5-stars. If I figure out a way to get them out I will increase my stars and explain how I did it. As it stands (NPI), it is nice looking, very functional, good-sized yarn storage bin that is more lavender than blue. Mine is not "floppy", and stands up for me when empty (I opened it up and left it sitting over night and it did not collapse back down). I have it stuffed with plastic bags at the moment trying to remove the wrinkles. Except for that I am quite happy with it. I plan to put some sort of dividers in it so that I can use part for working yarn and part for yarn and misc. storage.
If anyone has a proven method they used to get the wrinkles out I'd love to hear about it!

These crochet hooks are "okay" - clearly not as good as those that are bought individually. The hook part is more shallow and rounded than my other ones. My regular hooks have deeper hooks with smooth but more defined creases to grasp the yarn better. Since I'm just using these to pick up occasional dropped stitches in knitting, they'll work. If I were crocheting I would have returned these.

I am pleased with this product I purchased at the reasonable price I paid for these pliers.
They are just what I needed to round out my jewelry tools.

one of the bristles fell apart after only three uses

This is definitely a time-consuming approach to cutting bottles and glass. You have to press down SUPER hard in order for it to score correctly, and I even had to go back through and score it again, after already doing the icing and heating method. Looking back at all of the reviews before-hand, I thought this was going to be a pretty simple thing to do. However, it turned out to be way more time consuming than I had planned. Also, it wouldn't score the end of the bottle like the projects show. I was not impressed.

I liked these scissors enough, wish they were a bright color. Makes it easy to spot on a cluttered sewing table.

I had thought that this brand was inferior until I did some research and found that they have some basic machines and then they have better machines. This is definitely a better machine, So easy to learn this machine, it is quiet, sews great and straight, and the needle threader works every time!!!

Great price! I haven't unrolled all of it, but it appears to be in perfect condition.

What can you say about a pencil sharpener? It sharpens. The receptacle
for shavings is fairly adequate, but it could be a bit easier to but back on.

If youve ever had a spool of wire go sprong on you and create a birds nest of tangled wire this is the product to get. And, if it has not happened yet, its only a question of time eventually, all wire spools go sprong.
This not only prevents that, it makes it so much easier to pull off just the amount of wire needed. Its a simple elastic band with a plastic disk that you feed the wire through, but it does a wonderful job at keeping spools organized.
The fit is adjustable. It fits fine as-is on spools from Lightning Vapes and Temco; it needs to be tightened up to fit on smaller spools, such as the 30 meter spools from UD.
These are much better than a similar product made by UD. These are larger (the UD ones only really work well with UD spools) and theres a pull tab to release the tension so thicker gauge wire can feed smoothly. Plus, the cost per band is lower provided that you get the bulk size pack of 25.
An absolute must-have. Saves time, wasted wire, and a lot of swearing!

I am a new Counted Cross Stitcher. My wife needed me to have something to put my WIP's (work in progress). This bag looked to be the answer to a potential marital problem. (my mess and my wife's need to have me keep my stuff together)
The bag is divided in halves. For me, I have a moderate to small project in each half. The pockets closest to the outside is a full pocket where I put my patterns, pens, and information sheets. Each side has two insert pockets divided into different configurations with every pocket having a quilted back and zippered clear front. Because I only cross-stitch, I use the individual pockets to put my bobbins of floss. In the one of the center pockets I have my extra needles, scissors, threaders and marking pens for the Aida cloth.
The vertical pockets are great for the bobbin cards and I love them. The horizontal pockets are where I have a problem. Those pockets are about 6" deep and 3" wide. The small bobbin cards at the bottom are difficult for me to get out of the pocket. (I am a big man with big hands) This is an inconvenience not a problem.
I will happily use the Yazzii craft bag to keep my UFO's or WIP's clean and organized and preserve my marriage.

I have very funny skin and I was afraid to buy silver coated or plated earring hooks. These solved my problem. These are nice and they are hypoallergenic

Cute but the product finished isn't distinctly a cat! Colors are too much a like!

In my opinion, this is great quality fabric. The color I received is exactly as shown. I received it quickly and they shipped it on a roll, which was unexpected, but really nice - no creases or folds. I really recommend this seller. :)

It's black dye, exactly what it says it is and works well. I've never had any issues with Rit dye.

This is a great tool. I use it on my Sweet 16 to check the tension when quilting. This is something I wish I had bought when I got the machine. It has made my life so much easier. It is simple to use- and there are some on-line charts for different threads with recommended tension. Every bobbin I use has to be adjusted so this tool gives me a real starting point so I am quilting sooner rather than later because I am not fussing so much with the tension. Want one for my regular sewing machine now. (I am one of those women who fix their own stuff if I can)

Excellent quality. Must store flat or it will bend. This was an excellent purchase and was more than satisfied with the quality of the mat.

Perfect eyes! I love them. The backings fit so well that I don't have to struggle to put them on.

just as advertised. should work well.

great for airbrush or watercolor effects, much cheaper to buy this set than to buy individuals, and good useable colors.

I was hoping for ones that are more flexible

This is the sharpest, cleanest, best black ink EVER! I own more black ink pads than I would admit, but Hero Hues India Ink will now supplant them all. i make a lot of greeting cards, and was always searching for a decent ink. A friend bought it first, and after trying it, I knew I needed to buy it. One of my smartest purchases when it comes to craft supplies. Because it stamps so sharp and clear, I will be able to use some of my unloved smaller stamps as well as smaller verses and greetings.

I wound these on bobbins today and the thread is great.

(This is Chris' wife leaving this review!) I don't know anything about chalk markers... I bought these to write on chalkboard contact paper that I use to make labels for my jams and jellies. I figured 6mm would be a pretty thin tip but it's not, so if you are looking to use these on something small don't bother. I use a punch for my labels and the punch measures almost 2 1/4 inches across and I can barely fit the word strawberry. I can't speak for the erase ability of these since I don't need to erase my food labels. I can say that they don't smudge though! * I changed my 3 star review to 5 star. I don't think it is fair to give 3 stars because the tip if too big for what I wanted to use it for.*

Nice set. Bought more for the pencil roll than the contents, but the pencils are nice. The roll is sewn a bit - wonky - so you can't use every slot, but it's nice for he price.

This is a nice deal on good quality thread, and lots of it!

for some reason am always looking for a way to bring a touch of class and antiquity to what i do.... these candles are perfect and they work

always surprised at the quality of these charms. I make a lot of bracelets and these are so easy to use.

I bought this as a gift. Gives them a chance to explore their artistic side.

Really sturdy wire, I'm very satisfied.

Scissors with a serrated edge are truly remarkable. I keep these for when I need the blades to cut and hold.

Works great and leaves little mess. Convenient tube opening.

I recently got this for the children's class projects, guess I should have waited a while since I paid $58.14 and shortly after it was reduced to $46.68, I guess the plus is this one can laminate (cartridge to be purchased separately), it can also create magnet projects (cartridge to be purchase separately). Nevertheless the children love it and that's purpose fulfilled.

We use these as part of a kindergarten engineering project on building igloos! They are really easy for the kids to use and put together, really easy to build with and the colors are great! Have bought them before and will buy them again!

Nice compact size and works as described. Its super easy to use and clean. Plenty of glue sticks.

The colors and patterns are beautiful, and I've always thought everything with that Martha Stewart Crafts price tag was worth the little bit extra because of the quality, but the stickiness of this tape just wasn't working for me. It was NOT sticky enough. I need to find another brand of washi tape.

This will be given as a gift, so I'm not sure about this particular package. The pens I have from earlier purchase are fantastic, which is the reason I ordered another set to give as a Christmas gift. If I run out of my own pens before Christmas, the gift will be diverted to mine. 'They are always easy to use and I love the coverage when I use them in large areas.

I have two long arm quilting machines (real ones) as I own a quilt finishing business, but I still enjoy hands on FMQ for small projects. I like my Brothers for general sewing and embroidery, but nothing beats this basic, mechanical, bulletproof straight stitcher for piecing and free motion quilting. Computerized tensioning just doesn't cut it for changing threads. One of the best things is that whatever I set it at before I shut down to make dinner, it is still there when I turn it back on! I hate getting an hour into my project and remembering I forgot to reduce my stitch length! I got this model rather than the lesser one because the speed control is a handy feature. You set your top speed at the point that best coordinates with your hand speed. This is a great package with the 25 bobbins and 100 needles in varying sizes. I usually use titanium but will use these. Mine arrived 2 weeks ago and I have already quilted a baby quilt (to try it out) and a table runner as well as spent a day paperpiecing my current Neimeyer star project. I'm loving it! One thing it does not come with is a 1/4 inch piecing foot. However. It takes a standard high shank foot. I found the plain "Brother like" foot that I like (without the side guide that catches on everything) on ebay. Now that it has arrived, my life is complete. If you are passionate about quilting, don't hesitate, buy it!

I was surprised to find that instead of consisting of multiple pieces, this product is actually one solid plate. I am used to Nestabilities and Sizzix sets that come with the dies all separate. But I could immediately see some advantages to having them all in one piece: all the coordinating parts will cut out in one pass (but unless you want to pre-cut little squares of paper for each different leaf, they will all come out the same color.)
I suspected that this might not cut out well with my Cuttlebug, which often misses the center section on large or intricate dies. On the first pass, I could see that it hadn't cut the middle of the wreath all the way through. On the second pass I used a metal shim, and it cut perfectly. It cuts nice deep detailing for the leaf veins.
With the dies all on one plate, you can't really use the dies separately or place them strategically on a card to use the negative space. But on the other hand, you can't lose any of the coordinating dies since they are all piece.

beautiful stamp but no matter how hard i try the one side does not stamp as well as the other side.
