I love the little mini folders for the Never-ending Card. All 5 of these Embossing Folders are really nice. I, also, love the fact that one of these minis is a greeting. The largest folder is really nice on white card stock, using glitter glue for the embellishing.

The folders are great for this time of the year, the impressions are deep and very clear. Doesn't work on all types of paper, but for the most part they're super.

I disliked the fact that the embroidery floss was not sorted and I eventually threw the mess away and purchased separate floss. Not very cost effective for me.

Absolutely the best fabric markers. They were fantastic for embelishing a quilting project, on clothing, and signatures on a memory quilt. The colors were true and have stayed vibrant after several washings.

I bought these markers to use with Robobox Creative Stencil & Pen Set to stencil robots onto canvas tote bags because one of the markers with my original Robobox set had fallen apart during shipping.

I had two concerns: the length and width of the tip of the markers and whether the marker would bleed if I paused while stenciling.

The tips of these markers were definitely long enough to reach through the plastic stencils. They were a little wider than the tips of the markers that came with the Robobox set so some of the fine details were lost. There was no bleeding during short pauses while stenciling. However, there was a little bleeding when the stencil was traced over and over to pick up some of the fine details.

These markers performed much better than Sharpie Fine-Tip Permanent Marker, 24-Pack Assorted Colors on canvas. The Sharpies bled heavily when there was a pause in stenciling.

One thing that I did not realize from the description of the product was that you get three twelve packs of the fabric pens so this a good deal for a group craft project.

We tried these markers during my 7 year olds birthday party. The girls all decorated pillow cases as party favors (it was a sleepover party)and they still look like new even after the abuse of 20 little girls! The colors are bright and after several washings, have not faded. There is also a wonderful selection of colors included.

I needed a classroom set of fabric markers for a project. I've used crayola fabric makers in the past with excellent results. However, for this project I need a finer tip for more detail and I didn't want the hassle of heat setting which is required with the crayola. After reading the reviews and discovering that there were 3 packs, I decided to jump on this product. The point is narrowerabout half the widththan the crayola markers; I would consider it a medium point. It's about the same as a regular "skinny" marker. It wasn't quite as narrow of a tip as I would have liked. I tried out several colors. The purple does tend to bleed. The teal is not nearly as light as what is indicated on the cap. I was pleased with all the other colors. For the price, I still think is was a good product.

These worked well on the cotton fabric I used them on. Are colorfast, and with stencils, look like print. My only issue was that a couple of them were almost dry...could just be a fluke though. All in all they were decent fabric markers, at a reasonable price.

Reviews of Jon Gnagy Original Learn to Draw Set

Jon Gnagy Original Learn to Draw Set
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

Jon Gnagy's TV show was the first show ever broadcast. I watched it as a child in the fifties. He taught art, real art, not painting a variation of the same thing over and over, in ten minutes. At five, I started looking at the book from my brother's kit and learned a lot from the self-explanatory illustrations. Without being able to read, it taught me such basics as perspective, shading and depth. Later, when I could read, I learned even more from it. After a career as an artist, which has spanned almost fifty years, I can honestly say he had more effect on me than any teacher I ever had. I highly recommend this for any upstart.

I started learning to draw with a Jon Gnaggy Learn To Draw Kit 60 years ago. I loved it so remember it well. I bought this and other kits like it, for my grand children. One granddaughter told me she "wants to be an artist" so I sent this kit to her after she was in the hospital, as a get well gift. I hear she likes it. Her mother said, "The package came, and I didn't see it after that. But she said she likes it." She later called me to thank me for it and said she really likes it. I asked what she is doing with it, and she said, "trying to learn to draw."

These aren't the supreme elite brushes of absolute godly goodness, but they are pretty close. For the price this is a great set of brushes. They hold their shape and points after use. The tote bag I threw in a corner, but if you travel with your brushes I think it would prove handy. The brushes however are good.

They're smaller than I expected but that's good as they're not too over-bearing and huge. The screws fit perfectly and the gold looks like, well, gold! Sweet spikes for your clothing project and you can't go wrong with the price.

Buy Fiskars 12-31337097 Eyelet Setters, 3-Piece

After I got the Fiskars 01-001049 Eyelet Punch Setter, I decided I needed more sizes in this handy punch style. So I got this set which does include the 1/8th but also has the 1/16th and the 3/8ths. The 3/8s works okay with 1/4 inch eyelets as well, or has for me.

So why do I like this style so much? The "hammer" to hit the punch is included in the design. Place the punch side anywhere you want, pull up the eyelet side, and the spring causes the two metal rods in it to slam together which creates the force to punch. It's strong enough to punch through light weight leather, 3mm laminate and bicycle inner tubes. It goes through paper and card stock with ease.

Place your eyelet, and put it on a hard surface. I use the wrong side of my little Mini Steel Bench Block". Flip the setter over to the eyelet setting side, and put it in the wrong side of the eyelet. Hold it in place with one hand, pull up on the other end, let it drop, and the eyelet is set.

To set 1/4 inch eyelets, sometimes I need to pull and let go 2 or 3 times.

I like that's it's all in one, and easy to use. I really appreciate the amount of force the spring has. Occasionally I do need trim the punched hole in some materials like plastic.

Really easy to use fiskars eyelet setter. One side cuts the hole the other side sets the eyelet. Great price for the set. I would buy it again.

Best Deals for Fiskars 12-31337097 Eyelet Setters, 3-Piece

Oh my, where to begin? Well, first, these work perfectly to make holes in cardstock and paper, which is what I use them for.

You know those times when you need to make a hole for a brad in the middle of a 5x7 card? Most hole punches don't reach far enough; other hole punches require a hammer. These have a built-in "hammer": there's a spring connecting the top and bottom sections; you position the punch, pull up the top section, let it go, and you get a resounding "THWACK!" and there it is: a perfectly placed hole right where you want it.

Need to set an eyelet? No problem! Make a hole as above, insert the eyelet with the "business end" up, flip the Fiskars gizmo over, place the setter in the eyelet, pull up the top section, and let it go. Another satisfying "THWACK!" and your eyelet is set. It really is that easy.

This set has the sizes you're likely to use the most. I use brads in all sizes, from mini to oversized, so I use the small and medium most often.

Very nice set, very good price, too.

Honest reviews on Fiskars 12-31337097 Eyelet Setters, 3-Piece

Maybe other people have had better experiences, but unless I'm using these things on very thin material they are practically worthless and the eyelet setter rarely works. To make matters worse, they have become completely dull in the short time I've tested them out on paper and cardstock. Considering I've only had these things for a month and used them maybe 10 times I can't imagine them being useful for anyone in the long term without frequent sharpening and extreme amounts of patience. Overall, your better off looking somewhere else.

The design of this device is terrible. The first time I used it, I pulled the spring back lightly which was obviously not hard enough as it did not punch a hole. I then pulled back further and this time, it punched the paper, but the spring never went back to its original state and instead hung loose in the middle. There are two metal pieces inside the spring casing which need to collide in order for this device to work and when the spring went askew, those two metal pieces were no longer lined up. I returned it and ordered an old fashioned little hammer instead.

I haven't had a chance to actually use this set yet but I have taken out the parts and inspected them. Everything seems to be of good quality and other than being of the smaller scale which makes sense since it comes in a zippered pouch, everything is great. Would I like to have a bigger bench block? Yes! Would I like to have a bigger hammer? Of course! But if it came with those bigger items, this set wouldn't have been such a great compact set that you could pick up and take anywhere and it certainly would have been a lot heavier. Overall, a very good set and I have no complaints!

I love these colored pencils !!!! Event though that they are pricey they are aboulutely well worth the money. For the fact they don't require as much sharpening as "Crayolas" do (because of having more wood than colored pencil ). If you really want to have "OUTSTANDING COLORED PENCILS !!!!!! " that will last a long time then "Koh-I-noor's are the right ones to buy !!!! Especially if you are an artist !!!! :)

I use Progresso color sticks as well as a variety of others in my art. They have vibrant color and they're not too 'greasy' so its fairly easy using blending 'ink' and torchons provided you do so gently. I started on a new piece the day these arrived . They're woodless so expect them to break if you're not carefull but I usually break them purposefully then take the broken pieces and use them in pencil extenders.It allows me to use them more confidently since im not worried about them breaking inadvertently and I still am able to sue just about ALL of the pencil piece up. My question is why are these sets of 48 not readily available from a variety of sources? I got my set from CzechArtSupplies through Amazon but there are no other vendors selling them...at all! Whats with that? Ive no problems dealing with CzechArtSupplies BTW and will purchase from them again confidently but youd think there would be other sellers,even local art stores would be carrying them.

Whatever , The product is good and worth getting your hands on....but you better act soon, Theres no telling how many more sets CzechArtSupplies has and I just may grab them for myself....nothing like stockpiling supplies. :)

There are colored pencils and then there are Cretacolor Woodless Watercolor Pencils. They are solid color: to gain a finer point you simply rub the tip at an angle across paper. The color, weight, and silky smoothness must be experienced to be believed. I am all about amortization; if you calculate how many sets of lesser pencils you would have to buy to get the same length of use as these Cretacolor pencils, you'd see the economy of going for the gusto. No worries about trashing a fine point while sharpening. These pencils will last you a *very* long time. I have given several sets of these pencils as much-appreciated gifts.
