Holds lots of water and paint, and has a very nice point. Not as soft and floppy as the squirrel mops so you have more control. Shipping was faster than I expected during the Christmas rush.

This stamp has alot of beautiful asain designs and motifs. I haven't seen too many asian influenced stamps with a large background stamp included. The bamboo and cherry blossoms are my favorite and I have used them several times. I purchased this block along with Inkadinkado Clear Acrylic Stamp Block Extra Large 6 x 6. They work well together. Because of the block design the large background stamp fits perfectly or I could arrange the other stamps together to create a "single" stamp. You must take care the first time removing the stamps from the clear sheet it is attached to. The stamps are adhered pretty tightly. If you remove them too quickly you may rip the stamp. After removing for the first time, all subsequent usage is fairly easy. Don't throw away the plastic sheet it comes with because you can re-use them to store your stamps. The stamps clean-up nicely with just a little warm water and drying. The stamps retain there "stickiness" even after several washes. I've used these stamps in my mixed media art work, thank-you and birthday cards, ATCs, etc. The simple asian designs and beautiful caligraphy are perfect for many types of applications. I used the following ink after researching a little online: Tsukineko Full-Size Memento Fade Resistant Inkpad, Tuxedo Black. It worked well for me but any ink you typically use would probably work just as well.

I love the simplicity of Asian inspired cards and this set is perfect with that goal in mind. The only concern is that the large stamp is 4-1/2" x 5-3/4" so be sure you have a stamp block to accommodate it. The designs are beautiful.

These stamps are so beautiful. I used them to make a birthday card for my mother-in-law and she was so impressed by how elegant the background looked and how well the lantern made it pop. I also used the lantern and the small symbol to make wrapping paper for her present, which she also loved. Just make sure you have a big enough block to mount the background stamp on too. I had to resort to using a glass casserole dish for lack of anything else suitable!

Inkadinkado Rubber Stamp With Wood Handle - Various Designs Review

This stamp is not 1 x 1 x 1 inches. The block is 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches and the print itself is 2 x 2. Luckily, I had been looking for this particular stamp for awhile and so already knew its real dimensions. As for the stamp itself, I was a little concerned having heard mixed reviews about this line of stamps from Inkadinkado that are supposed to look like pencil drawings. I heard it's hard to get the detail to show up as the picture on the block, but figured I would check one out myself as I collect shell stamps and this one appears quite beautiful. Well, after testing it out about thirty times stamping some plain giftwrap, the mixed reviews are correct. Do not expect to see most of the fine pencil detail. They will appear more like continuous shadow on the darker side of the shell. Luckily, on a stamp of this size, it does not harm the overall effect too much as the giftee won't know there was supposed to be fine pencil detail there and the impression is otherwise clear.

I purchase and use a lot of Inkadinkado stamps -they're consistently high quality and the prices are quite reasonable compared to other brands.

I purchased this stamp to use for a special Christmas card for a friend who LOVES lighthouses. By careful coloring (I use Prismacolor pencils), this "beachy" scene can easily become a winter scene. I paired it with this little snowman stamp Inkadinkado Wood Stamp, Snowman -stamped and colored him separately, then fussy-cut him out and mounted him slightly to the right of the lighthouse using dimensional foam tabs so he looks like he's in the foreground. Turned out great! Just what I wanted.

I can also see using this for a lot of other cards, too -encouragement, sympathy, even "thinking of you." Quite versatile!

Very happy with this.

This stamp is very detailed and works wonderfully for adding watercolors after stamping it. If you are into stippling colors onto paper and then stamping over the dried image, this stamp will produce excellent images as well using that technique. make sure you use 80 lb paper for all projects for best results.

The last two Inkadinkado stamps I've purchased (the other one from a craft store) have had the actual rubber stamp glued onto the wood crooked so that when I stamp the image, it's not straight. I won't be buying stamps from Inkadinkado again.

I have ordered this twice and got really nice selection of beads, pendants and some useful non-bead things like earring pieces, too. I have received a few beads without holes (maybe 5 out of 200), but that's ok, I intend to glue them onto pin backings & hair clips. Yes, not 100% of everything you get will be absolutely flawless, but for 1/2 pound of beads at such a low price I think the quality is quite good. It is a random assortment so you won't always get matching beads (I have so far both times). Part of the fun of this is that it is a mystery mixed bag. I like to make asymmetrical 'crazy' bead necklaces & bracelets so Mr. Kitty's Big Bead Bonanza is purrfect.

I read the reviews and their were only 2, one was happy the other not, but the reason why one wasnt happy was that their complaint was that they had no matching beads.

i figured that wouldn't be a problem since i wanted to make a mixed up bracelet and necklace and figured this would be a nice way to help me jump start it. Most of the bead strings were 1/2 this price so i figured at least 1/4 of the beads would be decent.

Their was 2 huge pieces of melted lumped glass from old bottles that looked like it was from a junk yard. That was how they were able to get the weight up. The rest are even worse. When you make large amounts of beads their are always waste, ones that come out bent, miss-shaped and blobbed, parts would be missing, chunks chipped off, etc. This is what you get!!!!

Out of around 200 beads, 15 of them were in good condition, the rest were discards.

This is completely miss represented. These beads should be at least true beads.

I am not being picky about this, they are so bad i am trying to get a friend to come over with a camera and take a few pictures of these close up and post here.

total waste

don't bother

I LOVED what I got! There were SO many different beads, and a TON of multiples. There were clay, glass, metal and plastic beads of all shapes, sizes and colors. Also there were a lot of metal pieces (earrings, necklace pieces, etc.), a leather piece long enough for a necklace, and an awesome pendant. I got a few broken pieces, seriously only like 5. I don't know what the unhappy customers were talking about, maybe I just got lucky. I swear I got 3X the amount I was expecting. The only bad thing was maybe that there were a lot of beads that are more in the "kid category," but I can work with them!

Discount Pebeo Porcelaine 150 China Paint Fine Tip Marker, Anthracite Black

Customer Ratings:

Great for kitchen crafts, would work well for kids crafts or at home use. So far Ive done three mugs and a bowl and had a lot of fun with it drawing paper airplanes, words etc.. At times, the ink is a little hard to get going, or else it will start leaking.. I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking for specific detail to re-sell products. It generally gets you the hand-drawn (but creative!) effect. Ive baked them all in the oven to make them permanent, as per instructions, and taken care in hand-washing the wares, but with the bowl (my first attempt) parts of the drawing have already started to chip off! Overall its a fun crafting addition and my friends have been impressed, but I don't know if I'd buy this specific marker again.

I spent about two hours shaking and depressing the tip trying to get the paint to come out before I finally gave up. The most that ever came was a faintly black tinted liquid. Returned, no questions asked. Glad Amazon has great service!

I bought two of these pens to decorate new plates and bowls with. One I never could get to work and the other worked well on a couple of plates and then started having issues. I tore apart the tip and cleaned all the parts with nail polish remover and got it to work again. Unfortunately it only worked on one more plate. I did not want to purchase another one just to try and finish the rest of the plates.

Reviews of Fiskars Mini ShapeBoss Embossing Stencil Set CHRISTMAS (5642)

Customer Ratings:

I absolutely love this stencil because it's very nice to make cards with, and I use this on the front or on the backside of the card! There are many different images on the stencil and that makes it useful. In Finland we only have the "NOEL" version, not this version of a christmas stencil, and this one is far more cuter than the "NOEL" version that only has a reindeer, mountains, an angle and some snow on it. This one you will probably like more! :)

Good for leather. Heavy duty.

I used them on a t shirt which was tricky because they would leave a whole in the shirt so if you put the stud in the wrong spot you could not move it. Also because they are probably made for leather a couple have fell off. I just put them back on ( in the same holes). I don't recommend using them on light weight fabrics but they are very nice studs for leather or thicker material.

Review of Rotring Sketching Art Pen F - fine

Customer Ratings:

This is fantastich!

Everything good about a pen is here; weight in hand, smoothness, flow, and even grip, despite a lack of that 'gummy' stuff that's so popular now. I love ROtring nibs, and this one is no different. They're durable as all get-out and have an iridium tip that sets them a class above plain old steel, although they aren't top of the line gold-plated.

The bad thing is that the pen can't be topped. You can't put the cap on the top once you take it off. I should have noticed this, of course, but I didn't, and it's really annoying because I have to put it in my pocket when I don't have a desk. Also, the pen itself is pretty long and didn't fit in my coat pocket. I thought about putting a hole in the pocket just to fit it because I loved it so much, but then I left it in Tennessee....

While it is a little bit light in the hand, this Rotring pen write beautifully. The nib flows smoothly over the paper (no scratching, as with some lower quality pens). The cartridges snap into place securely, while a spare cartridge fits upside down in the top part of the pen. The ink flows well and very opaque. Overall, an excellent ink pen for the money.

Buy 14" (35cm) Knitter's Pride Karbonz Single Point Knitting Needles

Customer Ratings:

I am quite enamored of these needles. The smaller sizes are particularly great accidentally sitting on and splintering a bamboo size 3 which was half of a pair is not a good thing. These Karbonz are very sturdy and seem unlikely to warp. They are nice and smooth. Lighter colored yarn in particular shows up well on these needles. I am building up quite a collection of Karbonz in different sizes. Treat yourself to a pair I bet you will want more.

I ordered carbon fiber knitting needles because they sound awesome. And they are. They're black with nice pointy metal tips, and they will not bend or break easily. I am a little bummed that they're similar to plastic needles: the yarn sticks to them, and they get warm in your hands. And they're so inflexible that they're a little hard to use for someone like me who's used to rosewood and bamboo. But I still really like them, and I intend to get some more...but maybe just as circulars.

I'm usually very fond of the Die Cuts with a View products, but this 12"x12" paper stack was a bit disappointing. Most of the sheets are close-up photographs of various textiles, with the emphasis on (you guessed it) lace and linen. The predominant colors are light tans, off-whites, and pale pinks--colors you might find in your great grandmother's linen cupboard.

These sheets would make a nice background for a wedding scrapbook, but aren't really suitable for card-making (which is why I originally purchased them). Some of the sheets are embellished with a bit of glitter (the kind that doesn't rub off) or embossed lines of 'stitching.'
