OMGosh, I love this ink. It goes right on in just the right amount and doesn't make a mess and it puts just the right amount of ink on the stamp so your not wasting it. Love the color too. Thanks. Definitely a Ranger Time fan.

PURCHASED THIS FOR MY GRANDDAUGHTER WHO DOES A TON OF PAPER CRAFTING OF ALL SORTS, THIS MACHINE WORKS JUST LIKE STATED, AND DOES AN AMAZING JOB, SHE DREW HER PATTERN AND WITHIN MINUTES IT WAS CUT JUST AS SHE WANTED. I AM SO GLAD THAT I FOUND THIS MACHINE, I HAVE ALWAYS HELD BROTHER PRODUCTS IN THE HIGHEST ESTEME AND THEY DID NOT FAIL WITH THIS CUTTING MACHINE IT IS THE BEST AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. IT IS EASY TO SET UP AND EASY TO USE, I KNOW SOMEONE STATED THAT IT IS NOISY WELL WE DO NOT THINK SO,

Totally not what I was expecting! I didn't realize how much of a variety and what good sized tools this set has! Each tool is about 6" long with two different tips; one on each end. I purchased these for sculpting with Super Sculpey and Apoxie. I haven't tried them out yet but I was very pleased at the quality and variety for only $7.50! Also was not expecting them to come with a case. (Although I did get rid of the case b/c the tools kinda poked their way thorough the bottom and it's pretty useless. But whatever, I didn't pay for the case...I paid for the tools).
Yes, some have marks, blemishes, some minor rust spots and some scuffs
Yes, the case is pretty useless
Yes, they are not eye blindingly shiny
But they are just rugged TOOLS and will be destroyed when I'm done with them anyway! If you look at one of my other used clay tools, you'll KNOW it's used. I don't think the other reviewers that gave a poor review got used tools. They are probably just flawed from the factory or aged from sitting on the shelf. They are most likely not handled gently in the storing and shipping process since they're just metal tools. Mine still had the little red plastic covers on three picks and I don't feel any rough spots on the tool tips where it matters.
I am super happy with this set. They're metal, sturdy and it contains a huge variety to choose from to get better sculpting detail all for just $7.50! Totally worth it.
I'm going to quote what another reviewer on here said b/c it's very true:
"If you just need a variety of sculpting shapes and don't care what they look like, you really can't beat this for the price."

Is to thin to use. I can't even use the 4mm beads I purchased from Amazon. The Scissors that came with this is great so even if its just for that it was wroth it but, the wire was not.

Crescent is not stretching it when they say your media will NOT bleed through to the other side. I've done some pretty heavy colouring with Copics and have not had a single bleed through yet. The one minor thing I found strange is if I use my Koh-i-Noor technical pens, the ink will feather a little bit. Not bleed through to the other side, just feather out. But my Copic multiliners stay put. Minor issue for a brilliant sketch book. I'm stocking up on these to keep on hand. LOVE THEM!!!!!

I bought quite a bit of this yarn to make a big sweater. Even though I received the same dye lot throughout the color was not consistent from one skein to another. Other than that, very nice feel and good to work with.

bright white light - a must for detail work. This light is well worth the dough

I was so pumped about this product. Honestly I was kinda skeptic about the quality. But I tested it out the minute it arrived. It came safely packaged. It gives a very crisp and solid image. Doesn't skip any detail. I used archival black to stamp them and am highly impressed. I am so happy they kept the price affordable and yet gave a high quality product. Don't look further if you are a card maker looking for a good doily stamp.

These are sooo convenient & make your embroidery look great.....perfect size! I'm new to machine embroidery & I read the reviews on these so of course I had to try them.....I won't embroider without them......worth every dime!!

I appreciate the fast delivery. I use these pens on a regular basis for my artwork. I will order these items again when I am in need of the pens. They do very well on glass. Thank you so much.

I'm a big fan of Pebeo porcelaine paints and this is no exception. Like the other ones I purchased, this one does require a little bit of thinning to get a smooth brush stroke, but it's not a big problem. It holds its color well after curing in the oven and is extremely durable after that. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking to paint china or ceramics.

Delivery from Scrapbooking Alley was very fast. Their prices compared to a number of retailers is also very good and shipping is free with at least $50 in purchases or a very reasonable $5.95 up to $50.
A big note for those who purchased the 4oz Color Wash spray in the last year: Ranger discontinued several colors like Pesto, Mushroom, Terra Cotta etc. and also discontinued the 4oz size. Now there is only a 2oz size but it costs the same as the 4oz size so that works out to a 100% price increase. Thanks a lot Ranger.
The 2oz size does however spray a finer mist than the 4oz size. The 4oz sprayed lots of large drops regardless of the angle it was used at but was easy to transfer to a bottle with a finer spray.
All the color wash sprays work incredibly well on a number of materials. I've used it mainly on paper, card-stock and grass-cloth and the color on those has become permanent when dry. After spraying with the color wash sprays you can spray a fine mist of water to blend the colors further. The colors are really rich but they are less intense than the matching alcohol inks. When purchasing note that even the 2oz goes really far as you use relatively small amounts for great effect.
A quick tip is to use a cardboard box layered with paper or card-stock when spraying. This prevents the spray from getting on other objects or furniture and also gives a two for one as you get some interesting looking paper in addition to the item you are spraying. Another tip is that the large drops normally emerge within the first three sprays so if you are trying to avoid a splotchy look use the spray on paper first before spraying your object.
Note: Red Pepper is another must have and looks awesome blended with Sunset Orange, Butterscotch, Cranberry, Wild Plum or Purple Twilight.

This is one presser foot that I use constantly, most especially when I am quilting. It works great and I can't imagine quilting without it.

I love this stuff. It is 6" and I use it for background adhesive in shadowboxes. If you stick it to something, it will die cut. The adhesion is good. It works great with the gilded flakes.

This machine is awesome! I have only had it for 1 week, but I knew right away, I made the right decision to invest in this. Yes, the materials needed are pricey; however, I don't mind because I love to create. I am looking forward to my future with my investment.

These are very nice & affordable

I have grown to like this glue. It is very thick but easily controllable by the amount of water put to it. I also like that it is made in the USA and it is non-toxic. Product was received in the recorded time.

Great for paracord projects.

These are pretty amazing. You can get a broad range of strokes with the real brush tips, from very fine to thick and broad. The colors blend extremely well on actual watercolor paper. You can touch the tips together to make a really cool home effect, or touch the tip to a water brush for a gradient effect. I really, really love these and will be buying the ink refills when these run out.

I am the proud owner of 8 different layering stencils. There's 3 different sized hearts, so you can choose what sizes you want to add to your project, or all three at once! With some of the layering stencils, it's hard to clean because there's pieces of the stencil that get caught on whatever you're trying to clean the stencil off with. With this stencil, there's no sharp edges that get caught on a sponge, t-shirt, microfiber cloth, ect to get caught on so it makes it easier to clean.
Pro Tip:
There's a hole at the top of the layering stencils so that you can put a ring through them so keep them all together and neat.
With Distress Paint, put some of it on a Ranger 15-Inch-by-18-Inch Inkssentials Craft Sheet . Then take a piece of blending foam (and the applicator) Ranger Inkssentials Ink Blending Tool-with 2 Blending Foams, and pick up some of the paint on it. Tap the Distress Paint through the stencil and get some really interesting results. This technique is a great way of layering your background.

Best circle cutter I've found so far, though a little difficulty using. taking care to prep and time in cutting, you can end up with a nice circle.

Very good, useful, go nicely with my addi click sets, and Knitters pride cubics. I have the black case addi, pink case addi, brown case addi, short case knitters pride, long needle knitters pride, all these interchangeable. I wanted bamboo interchangeable for certain yarns, These fit the bill and cost less than an addi set. I don't need to use them often so it's perfect fit.

ink did not stick and when the printer head went back and forth the ink smeared everywhere. the few that didn't smear once they dried the ink rubbed right off.

Im so happy with this purchase, It gives you so many choices without having to drag around all your crochet needles and it is very well made and nice and light weight, easy to handle. The only disappointment is that I don't have more time to crochet, because after getting my Boye hook set ive been looking for projects everywhere. I am sorry to say the carier case ad a broken zipper but that's all. ODER THIS YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Love this hook! Will definitely be ordering more! Super fast shipping!

This mold is a very nice size I was extremely pleased when I opened the package. I have not used it yet but I do look forward to it. The mold is like a cameo of flowers.

I bought this because my heavy duty antique white sewing machine broke. I had done alot of research prior to my purchase, and i had my eye on this one when it went on sale. It was meant to be. I bought this with a starter set of embroidery thread and interfacing. I have sewn and embroidered on this and it is wonderful. All the automatic features of this are amazing. It might be because my only other sewing experience was on the antique machine. I have used the button hole foot on thr largest setting to make slits for a seat belts backseat protector in the car. Worked beautifully. I also embroidered cloth diapers, and while the diapers were difficult to hoop, the embroidery came out great. One mistake I made was trying to do a monogram of different sized letters (small large small), the machine does all the letters the same size. This machine is not for the avid/professional embroiderer. It has several limitations which can be fixed with purchasing embroidery software, but for the beginner and occasional embroidery, this is perfect. Brother has a free pattern each month and more available to purchase.
Pros:
Auto threader
Auto bobbin winder
Auto thread cutter
Lots if customization for a riches wudth, length
Auto button hole
Cons:
Limited embroidery for custom designs
Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase.

I purchased two bags of these pin covers after trying them out at a quilting class in my local quilt shop. I also purchased a pack of pins to go with them. Using the Kwik Klip tool and these pin covers, I felt I could pin baste a quilt without the hand fatigue that normally accompanies such a chore. The pins snapped easily into the covers with the help of a pair of needle-nose pliers, but I ran out of pins when I still had a half bag of covers left. By the time I got around to purchasing more pins I couldn't have told you for sure what brand of pin I had been using, but I purchased my second pack at the same quilt shop so I assumed it was the same brand of pin. When I tried to apply the covers the pins just bent under the pressure of the pliers and would not snap into place. Frustrated, on my next trip to town I purchased another pack of pins at a different store, only to have the same results. What was I doing wrong? Only after extensive searching did I find reference online to the fact that these should be applied to steel pins. Both of my packs are nickel-plated brass. Now that I know I am willing to give these little babies a hearty recommendation--if you have the right pins!! They make the pins easy to hang on to, easy to see and remove when free motion quilting, and you can leave them open when you drop them back into their container and they won't get all tangled up.
Even though the product description, as of this writing, says you can use a particular size of brass pins (all of the others listed are steel) I would stay away from those and make sure you get steel pins. Hopefully then you will be a happy camper, too!

This machine works like a charm! Super easy to use and understand. I had never sewed before and had no problem figuring it out. Awesome machine!

This works on my machine, a White 1632 that I bought over 10 years ago from Hancock Fabrics. I gave it four stars because the way it is designed - the t-bar portion is so thick between the edge and the end close end of the opening where the screw stops that I can only use it for 5/8" seams or smaller. So, I may have to try a magnetic guide if I'm doing a 1" seam or bigger. I uploaded a couple of pictures showing the guide set at 1/2" and then set as far away from the needle as I could get it which is a little less than 3/4", so I won't be able to use it for any seams larger than 5/8". Still, I will definitely be using this.

What a treat not having to use those hand guided blade contraptions that always want to tear the paper. These work very well with paper and cardstock. I love to layer shapes and these nested dies are a lot easier to store than a bunch of punches. I have no problems using them with the smaller Cuttlebug machine. I'd suggest getting all the basic shapes if you can: circles, rectangles, ovals, and squares. They're very convenient when you need to layer. The only thing different I'd like to see is better packaging. The dies are well protected, but it's a real pain trying to get the plastic packages open. The plastic storage envelopes that the word dies come in are much more practical.

These are useful when working close to an iron. I use them when making quilt binding and doing other fussy ironing while sewing.

I am a very big crafter and sewer (including quilting). I have never tried a rotary cutter before, but really liked this. Very versatile and easy to get crisp lines. You could do it with scissor, but this was easier and faster.

Works great for what I need - transferring vinyl cut on my Silhouette onto coffee mugs. I thought that seeing the image to be transferred was going to be an issue, but it was not - I was able to see my image clearly! (I used black, haven't tried lighter colored vinyl - but I am sure it would also be clear enough)
After reading the reviews, I thought I should just go pick up one of the those local items, but I am glad I went with this. Gave it 4 stars because of the price, can use a coupon locally and get it cheaper, but I bought it here due to convenience.
HUGE TIP: If you have never used transfer tape before, make sure to watch videos on YT and make a "test" try before starting on your project.

These hoops are actually easier to use than the ones that came with my machine. You can easily tighten and loosen them. I have to use the thumb screwdriver to loosen the OEM hoops.

I absolutely love these bow dies, they cut perfectly, (I use a Sizzix Big Kick) and you can cut small and larger bow pieces together or separately, if you wish. I usually go ahead and cut both sizes at the same time, I always need a bow or two for my greeting cards and these bows always add a beautiful touch.

I got this opener for shirt buttonholes. Overall it works great, there are much higher cost buttonhole sets with included punch blocks and wood handles but this gets the job done. I've done 2 shirts on this tool and so far the blade is still super sharp, just be sure to use a nice wood block underneath, i prefer a soft wood so i can hear when the punch has made it all the way through the fabric.

These templates are very sturdy and come in their own case. I am very happy with this product.

Paper included is awesome. Comes with a nice sized sheet of black crepe paper for the hair. There is an English explanation but it's a little confusing to follow.

Worth the price, you use so little to hold your project. Not affected with changes of humidity like wet glues or sticks, nor does it dry out like some tapes. Your projects will hold together when given as gifts. Multiple purchases made because I use it all the time!

The price is well worth this combo machine. I've never touched a sewing machine and have no idea how to sew. After a week, I've figured out the basics of threading, winding the bobbins, swapping the machine to do embroidery. I've made many mistakes and learning a little each day. The cons of this machine is that you can't buy a larger hoop. It's the biggest complaint of the machine and you'll quickly realize 4x4 is small for monograming. This machine does not come with basic software for design layouts. I'm not the most tech savvy person but without the software, I can't do multiple initials correctly. It does come with a USB cord to upload your designs from your PC to the machine however, it's a pain because of the time issues. There is a slot for a brother card(expensive)!! It's cheaper to buy the card reader(you'll need if you want to use the cards) you can upload your designs to the card and put the card in the machine. You do NOT have to have these cards if you don't mind turning on your laptop, opening files and uploading. I'm disabled and my laptop is a bit heavy and it's extra steps I don't have time for at my sewing table. All of my errors are not because of the machine but because I'm learning. Hooping is a struggle! Figuring out which stabilizer and making sure designs are sized correctly. If you're new, like me, be patient and keep trying. I would buy this machine again as a novice. If you're skilled in hooping for monograming, buy a different model with a much larger hoop. "Update-2nd review" I wanted to add a few things for newbies. Deciding what software was a challenge but I chose Embrilliance with an auto download and it's great! You can get your monogram designs just how you want, edit and have fun. I should blog on my learning experiences. All the little things I've figured out through research. Also, you can buy a larger hoop for your machine. If you use software, it'll work to keep you from re hooping your designs. My new hoops (multi positional hoops from Amazon ) will arrive today. Can't wait. If you're trying to learn this machine don't be discouraged with the small 4x4 hoop. Look at Amazon review for these hoops and make sure they're for Brother 400. I'll let yall know how the designs turn out. These are NOT brother hoops but they work.

This is quite a little bag of goodies: all the standard hook sizes, and counter, several yarn needles in a nice case, stitch markers, those wonderful folding scissors that my whole family has on their key rings because of me, and a lovely purple case. The little strip that holds the hooks in place did come apart on one side, but I can glue it back if I decide that it matters. I am sure that I will use every little thing in this kit.

Best quality for the price! Packaged well and perfect for my first water color painting! I usually use oils but wanted to dabble in a different medium and these canvases will allow me to practice a lot!

Good quality, great value in this bundle. The only thing I dislike is that they act like heavy body acrylics at times and need to be thinned down with gel medium and water to get more fluidity that I want for my mixed media pieces.

As for the cloudy quartz These are beautiful beads & true to the picture accept no occasional pieces with goldish brown spots which i like but its all good either way n they arrived in a few days of purchase n as for the red quartz it wasn't true to the picture it was orange the blue quartz was true blue to the picture

I love the case. I have mixed feelings about the knitting needles. The knitting needles are top quality. I know, I've seen lots of knitting needles, and these are good quality needles. The join is great. The surface of the stainless steel needle is very smooth. Good cable for magic loop.
So, why do I have mixed feelings? The tips. The tips are too sharp for me. Of course, that is a personal preference. Some knitters prefer blunt tips some knitters prefer medium tips, and some knitters prefer sharp tips. These are the sharpest tips I have ever seen on a knitting needle. And I just can't deal with the sharp tips. If the tips were less sharp these would be perfect knitting needles.
I understand that hiya hiya has both sharp and regular stainless steel circular knitting needles. These are my first hiya hiya needles, and they are the sharp ones that come in the beautiful case, And I WANTED the case. I suspect if I were to purchase the regular style stainless steel circular needles from hiya hiya I would enjoy them very much.
