Seems to be well made and would buy again, or as a gift for someone else who needed this product.
Have to see if it stands the test of time... :-)

Review of Folk Art 424 2-Ounce Acrylic Paint, Light Gray
Good Companion for Folk Art Steel Gray which is darker. I don't have time to mix color from scratch this is a nice very light gray no blue brown cast. Nice consistency covers well not thin. Good paint

Main Street Wall Creations - Jumbo Stickers - Fairies Review
these were really just stickers. they are much smaller than they look, so we used them on paper and furniture.
It is not evident in the photos, but the decals have a little bit of sparkle in the material.
The decals have an overall shiny finish, which is something to consider, because they do tend to reflect the light. Most decals I have tried are matte. However, it is not enough of an issue to return them.
I would recommend this purchase.
The edges did come off a bit during the years... but since at good height, no chance for kids to peel off.
I am trying another design same brand now... since I had a good experience with this first.

I bought these ones at the dollar store, and 3 years later they are coming off easily, without affecting the walls paint. I am pretty sure it will depend on the kind of paint!!The edges did come off a bit during the years... but since at good height, no chance for kids to peel off.

I BOUGHT THIS ITEM FROM THE DOLLAR TREE. IT I NOT WATERPROOF. IT IS PRETTY BUT IT IS NOT WORTH TO STICK IT ON WALLS. IT IS FINE FOR KIDS TO STICK THEM ON SCHOOL BINDERS FOR EXAMPLE. BUT IF YOU ARE CREATIVE YOU CAN PUT THEM ON A PAINTED PIECE OF PAPER AND HANG THAT UP AS A PICURE.... IT DOES LOOK CHEAP, FYI AND IT IS NOT WORTH FOUR BUCKS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU CAN GET FOUR OF THOSE FROM THE DOLLAR STORE.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Main Street Wall Creations - Jumbo Stickers - Fairies
These are from the dollar store, and they will ruin your walls when they are pulled off the wall. Way over priced.Thursday, December 18, 2014
Best EK Success Curvy Cutter Cutting Tool Deals
This cutter works with the Curvy Cutter systems by EK Success. It locks into the appropriate track for the size you want to cut and even has a compartment for storing extra tiny blades that you would never be able to keep track of otherwise. The system is pretty big, but if you have all the equipment it works great!

The cutter works great and extremely easy. Only reason for the .5 star is I would like the slide on the blade to be in smaller increments. Would help with the second cut out of the label lid.Honest reviews on EK Success Curvy Cutter Cutting Tool

Buy Koh-I-Noor Woodless Graphite 4/Pencil Set
This pencils are a must have for artists. I do lots of shading and is very taxing and expensive on regular "art pencils" and used to run out of certain shades. I have been using the progresso for 2 years and the quality is top notch nd have nothing but love for these pencils. Simply a must have.

I couldn't settle on a color to try with my printmaking students, so I bought this assortment instead. Nice colors, even coverage with a brayer. We did foam tray prints and monoprints using tin foil and a Q-tip and both printmaking techniques worked well with these inks. Not permanent, but they do clean up well. I'll buy the Speedball inks again.

This is not for the impatient painter as there are some pretty detailed and small spots, but it is fun to do. And a very pretty painting for framing and hanging. I had fun painting this picture, and occasionally made some minor changes of my own liking. It pairs up nicely with another PBN I did a few years ago.This one is a lot of work compared to others I've tried, but it looks great. Good quality product and I received it promptly.

Cheap Kemper Klay Kutters Oval Set 5PC Clay Cutters Cookie Dough Modeling
So I bought these to make dollhouse miniature Easter egg cookies, but I wish they had smaller sizes. Two of the smaller cutters work for miniatures and the other sizes will work for fondant for my cakes. They cut nicely and are durable.

Reviews of Lifestyle Crafts Nesting Rectangles Die Set
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $24.99
Sale Price: $21.98
Today's Bonus: 12% Off

I don't agree with the other reviewers. I found these dies to be extremely flimsy and bent upon the first use in my Cuttlebug.
I also find they don't make clean cuts, even after running it through the machine a few times with the right plates.
What's more, these "rectangles" are not shapped properly for card making. The width times length ratio is not right. They are too long and narrow. I was going to use them for card fronts and they're just too narrow and long for the standard 5 1/2 x 4 1/4" card front. If they cut better, perhaps they'd make okay tags. But then, my paper trimmer could do that just as well.
I have plenty of Spellbinders, Sizzix, Cuttlebug and older Quickkutz type dies and those all work fine. What a waste of money these were and they weren't a good deal at all for $24 if I can't use them.
Thought about giving just four stars just because they are a bit flimsy; although their thinness is what allows them to store compactly?

First, these have many graduating shapes versus Spellbinders where you get far fewer dies for the same price. Second, they're great in tight places for very exact cuts (when saving paper or layouts are close together). Third, the graduating shapes allow easy, precise layering. Fourth, this provides, for my machine (which most people would have) the largest die that will fit.Thought about giving just four stars just because they are a bit flimsy; although their thinness is what allows them to store compactly?

Discount Play-doh Mega Pack 36 cans
This pack is a great way to stock up on Playdoh. It may be cheaper in local stores, but on Amazon the various multipacks of Playdoh are roughly the same price per ounce, except for the Play-Doh: Case of Colors, which costs about twice as much per ounce. The breakdown:
Play-Doh: Case of Colors is about .52 per ounce (20oz at $10.50).
Play-Doh Classic Colors Assorted 4 Pack is about .25 per ounce (20oz at $5).
Play-Doh 24-Pack of Colors is about .26 per ounce (72oz at $19).
Play-doh Mega Pack 36 cans is about .23 per ounce (108oz at $25).
I like the smaller cans, because my kids are hard on Playdoh and I like to be able to open a little at a time. Hope this helps!
This is the ideal sized container. The larger containers have too much doh for small hands.
This is a great set of colors. Some of the colors (like black, brown, and white) are hard to find in smaller sets.
I don't buy the sets that squish the doh into shapes. Although they tons of fun, the doh gets stuck and hardens and you end up discarding the squishers. I buy cheap sets of cookie cutters, plastic cutting boards, one large good rolling pin, and lots of devices to cut and roll (be creative).
Too keep the doh moist, occasionally add a 1/2 tsp of water to all the cans and let them set for a couple of days.
Would I buy this again? You bet.
One of the best childhood "toys" ever.

I have 7 young children that were kept amused for several hours thanks to this mega pack of play-doh. Even my 2 year old, sat at our dining room table for TWO STRAIGHT HOURS making various pretend foods and flowers and trees. Play-doh is a classic. It's great for fine tuning gross motor skills in young children, while capturing the imagination for children and adults alike.Would I buy this again? You bet.
