Discount Loew Cornell 2043 Brush Set, Natural Hair, Camel
I use these for cleaning into the corners and edges of my photographic lenses and astronomy telescopes and eyepieces. These are soft and do the job quite well.

Review of 3M Command Medium Picture Hanging Strips Black 4 Sets/Pkg; 3
I was thrilled to find that 3M came out with some black strips. I used these to mount speakers to my treadmill. I've used the 3M picture hanging strips since they came out. I first used them to hang framed certificates in my work cubicle. Then I finally got my act together and hung up a ton of framed photos in our hallway at home. This was SO much easier than using a hammer and nail. I used a small level to make sure that the frame was level and then just stuck it to the wall. (I NEED to use a level because other wise everything leans in one direction.) And if I accidentally stuck it a little bit uneven, as my husband is so willing to point out, once the adhesive has set, you can pull the picture off the wall and make your adjustments. Pulling the picture off the wall leaves the other part stuck on the wall, so it's just a matter of resnapping the pieces together.

Buy Jack Richeson Shiva Oil Paintstik, Iridescent Tropical Colors, Set
List Price: $49.95
Sale Price: $32.10
Today's Bonus: 36% Off
Although you can get these separately, it was great being able to find these together. The only thing I would have added is a pastel yellow, and you would have a true tropical set of colors. They blend with each other beautifully and are the best set of oil paints I have ever used on fabrics! Great for starting with your own "blank canvas", enhancing, or adding "missing elements" to already printed fabrics.

These stamps were great! A nice selection plus came with ribbon and ink and papers to make tags. Very nice combo for the money (though a little pricier than I like to pay). Still nice and worth it.

My 5 year old daughter loves everything Barbie and she was so happy when she recieve this Barbie coloring pad. You get five glitter markers and 12 pages of Barbie. The best thing about this set is that you don't have to worry about your kid messing up their clothes, carpet or wood floors because the marker only shows up on the paper. My daughter is having fun coloring and the glitter looks beautiful on the paper. She hangs her Barbie picture on the fridge when she is finish. I recommend this coloring book for any kids that loves anything Barbie , they will enjoy this set.
Crown Molding Templates Review
I suppose you could easily make a set yourself, but these are inexpensive and virtually unbreakable. They are a great reference before you cut expensive trim to confirm that your miter saw is set to the correct angle/tilt. I did deduct 1 star because they come with large print labels that you place on the templates yourself, which provides the opportunity for them to get placed on the wrong template. If they were already affixed it would avoid the possibility for this mistake to happen. Better yet they could have embossed it into the templates so unlike the labels you would not have to worry about them fading away or coming off (which would also save the company the cost of labels!). All-in-all worth the purchase despite this minor shortcoming

Teaching myself to do crown molding almost drive me to drink! I made a couple of rough patterns. They helped me know if I was about to make my cut backwards, but these are much better. I can now make sure I also get the correct angle, not just the correct direction. Just pay close attention when you put the stickers on each piece. I think this product would have been better if they came labeled, but it is a small price to pay to stay sane.Best Deals for Crown Molding Templates
I WAS NOT EXACTLY PLEASED. I ASSUMED THAT EVERYTHING SHOWN IN THE PICTURES CAME WITH THE TEMPLATES. SHAME ON ME. THERE IS NO ANGLE FINDING TOOL, OR BOOKLET / ANGLE REFERENCE TABLE. THE INSTRUCTIONS EVEN REFERENCE THE BOOKLET SHOWN BUT NOT INCLUDED AND NOT STATED. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND FIND A GOOD ANGLE FINDING TOOL WITH A GOOD ANGLE TABLE REFERENCE. I WILL REMOVE MY POOR REVIEW WHEN THE SELLER REMOVES OR MAKES IT PLAIN TO SEE THAT NOT ALL PRODUCTS SHOWN ARE INCLUDED WITH PURCHASE.Honest reviews on Crown Molding Templates
I invented this product myself, through trial and error. Should have patented it, but I didn't. But IF you are going to tackle a crown moulding project, let me tell you, buy this product. Don't reinvent the wheel!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Crown Molding Templates
The templates are great, they definitly have saved me money on cutting mistakes. I would set the saw up put the template in the saw and see it was set up wrong for the cut I wanted. They are A-1 in my book. A must for cutting Crown. Thanks Eric Thompson

Cheap Copic atyou Spica Glitter Pens 12/Pkg-Set A
List Price: $35.88
Sale Price: $25.56
Today's Bonus: 29% Off
Before my purchase here, I had the opportunity to try these pens at my local scrapbooking/stamping store. I fell in love with the pens! They are not like any other glitter pen I've used or owned before. The gitter is very fine and comes out easily and looks so pretty on my projects.
They don't come out really bold glittery. They are very soft. Also, Amazon has the best prices on these markers. I saved around $10.00 per set. And I did buy both sets A and B.
I use these all the time for making cards, scrapbooking or anywhere I want a little glitz! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

wow! i am a sucker for glitter and quality, and these pens did not disappoint!i bought them to "transform" my roller skates (which are all white) and i can't wait to get started! the pens themselves can be a wee bit pigment-deprived, so i will probably use a certain color (red, for example), then put the corresponding color of glitter pen over it. i think this should be sparkle-rific.
no matter what these were to be used for, i would highly recommend them!

Thankfully, I bought only two of these overpriced pens (Gold and Clear) because both of them are awful. As opposed to Sakura Stardust glitter pens, the Copics are scratchy with bad ink flow. The Gold tone is a strange sort of 18K-type color, totally lacking in expected richness. The Clear one is truly clear because the mica concentration in it is very low. If you're looking for dazzle, these overhyped Copic pens won't deliver it. Normally, I use a combination of fine-nib markers: Copic Original, the excellent new Shinhan Touch Twin and Sakura Micron. Sakura Microns beat pricey Copic Multiners as well.Honest reviews on Copic atyou Spica Glitter Pens 12/Pkg-Set A

Cheap Stabilo Point 88 Pen Sets zebrui box set set of 20
These ink pens have a fine point and are filled with really beautifully and highly pigmented water based ink. I like that there is no odor and that they dry quickly. I use them for both art and more practical and mundane tasks like writing reports etc to make those tasks more fun.

Discount 3 Dental Pick Inspection Mirror Bent Nose Tweezers Tool
List Price: $10.99
Sale Price: $6.50
Today's Bonus: 41% Off
I purchased a 3 piece dental kit that is listed as a new product. I received the order quickly, but when I opened the package and looked at what I received I was sorely disappointed. The dental mirror has dents and scratches on it and the handle is rusty. This is certainly not a new product.Purchased for threading my surger but the product is great for it's original purpose AND getting around that bottom thread!
Woodland Scenics ST1446 Low Temp Foam Glue Sticks (10) Review
These are primarily marketed for use in creating model train landscapes, but they're perfectly suited to repairing foam (EPS, EPO, EPP) RC park fliers as well. They're significantly more rigid and much stronger than any other low temp stick I've found at big box craft stores.

These glue sticks do a good job holding foam strips together without melting or distorting them. Not much else to report.Best Deals for Woodland Scenics ST1446 Low Temp Foam Glue Sticks (10)
It is hard to describe glue as "fun" or "educational" but using glue in a glue gun is as much fun as one is going to have with gluie, I should imagine. Woodland Scenics is a great US company that produces quality products, and this is just one in a conga line of superb products made by the very dedicated men and women in Missouri who work for this company. If Woodland Scenics makes it, buy it.Friday, August 29, 2014
Singer Hair Care Scissors Set with Comfort Grip Review
I know it's a cheap price but these scissors are really cheap. They say for cutting hair but when trying to cut hair it pushes it sideways before grabbing it. I'd sooner pay a little more and try to find a better one but seeing they are all made in China now, I doubt it. My old one I'm trying to replace was a Singer the size of the small one in this package but it was old enough to be made in the good old USA and it worked for many long years to cut my hair and my dogs. Anyone know where to buy a good scissors?I use these scissors for grooming my dogs. They are great for getting into tight areas to remove matts. I love them.

Cheap Poly X 40 Embroidery Machine Thread 25 Spool Basic Colors Set
Not sure if there are other reviews out there for the Poly X thread, but thought I would toss in my two cents.
I have used nothing but Poly X since I started embroidering 6 years ago. I am an amateur and nowhere close to pro.
That said, I have found the thread to sew up well. I do have a needle threader on my machine and I use it. I find it hard to thread it with this thread otherwise (it kind of feathers out a bit on the end when I try to thread manually). However, that might be normal for all I know.
What I do know is that the price is right and the color lasts. One of my first projects was a shirt for my son that he loved and wore at least once a week for over 6 years until he finally admitted it was too small. The colors are still vibrant and the embroidery still looks fresh enough to make me happy.
I love it -
Mary
