This was my first experience with an airbrush kit. I had no difficulty using the kit since everything came pre assembled and was easy to use. The only thing is that since I began using the kit regularly, I now learn that it is easier (for example) to attach a 4 port manifold to use other airbrush at the same time.

We took a class where we painted wine glasses and thought we'd paint some for bachelorette party favors. We bought this paint because it said it could be used to paint glass and could be baked to keep it on. The colors were great and matched her colors wonderfully. However, they didn't coat well. they were VERY thin and see through. Even waiting for a coat to dry and repaint didn't work so well. I used this paint for craft projects all the time and will continue to, but for the purpose of glass, I'd try a different product.

Comfort Grip Crochet Hook 10/Pkg Review

Comfort Grip Crochet Hook 10/Pkg - Assorted Colors
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars
Buy Now
I have these in dark green and while I wasn't aware when I bought them that there are different sizes included I did notice that the packaging indicated they would fit hooks of all sizes up to size K. As instructed, I cut the tip off the first one I took out of the package and put it on an F or G hook and found it slipped back off too easily. Looking more carefully through the grips I found a few smaller than the first one I've tried and started again with the smallest grip size. It does ok on the G, but using one of an identical size (smallest) on a C hook the grip slides around a bit. It doesn't slip all at once, just gradually travels a bit one way or the other. I wouldn't want one to get stuck so that it couldn't move because I hold the hook in the place where the letter is indicated for size, and that's what the grip is covering.

Truly, I'd rather it stay in place until I want to remove it and then remove easily. At one point I had a grip on a hook and it stayed on very well, not moving at all, but when I wanted to remove it doing so was very difficult. I'd also prefer that they be a good bit thicker and more cushioned. Smaller hooks are smaller diameter all over and it seems to put more stress on my hand to use a smaller hook. I saw a tutorial online that showed how to make a cushy grip for a crochet hook using 1/4" plastic tubing and a pencil gel grip. I'm going to hunt up some tubing next and try that instead of continuing to fight with this.

The foam is a nice surface, but it would be better product with a thicker diameter and also with even smaller grips sizes included. I'd be more forgiving about the size and slipping issue if I were trying to get away with putting them on steel hooks, which are in a different category of small. Anything with a letter for the US size is in the standard range and should work according to the package labeling (size K or less). It doesn't appear to be wearing or deteriorating any from use, but I have not used them for very long yet.

I was disappointed with this purchase. I bought them for my wife and she said the grips weren't nearly as thick as we hoped when we made the purchase. The products obviously help grip the crochet hooks, but a thicker grip would be much better. I may not have looked close enough, but I did not get what I expected.

Best Deals for Comfort Grip Crochet Hook 10/Pkg

I thought these would make crocheting more comfortable, but I really did not like them at all and do not plan to use them after trying them a short while. I gave the extras to a friend, who also does not use them. They are a little rough, which I guess helps grip, but they really feel almost as hard as the hook itself. I'm not sure how it is suppose to help.

Honest reviews on Comfort Grip Crochet Hook 10/Pkg

These keep your hands from slipping. I like to use them on my bamboo hooks. They are not very cushioned, but they are great for slipping. If you are looking for comfort, you need a Susan Bates comfort holder, they are great.

The grips are closed on one end so if you want to slide them up as seen on the package you would need to cut off the closed end.

Even being as short as they are they aren't easy to slide on. They would be much better if the grips were about 3 times the length and easier to slide on.

They should also be labeled that they are assorted sizes for medium hocks about E F G

I think you would be better off wrapping tape around the hock.

This is officially my first easel since my dad, an engineer, made one for me when I was 5 to divert my interest in painting the walls : ) After much research this model won out for the pastel & watercolor art I looked forward to working on, in limited space I might add. It is stable and has as many options for height, horizontal and vertical positions as you can come up with. It came quickly as promised with nice packaging, puts up and folds away easily. The travel case is an excellent feature, most anything can be added to the stablizer bar brush trey (area). For beginner artists, it would be great if those basics were offered on the same page. I love the horizontal position options and how high the legs telescope. I highly recommend Heritage Watercolor Easel for any kind of art, it does not bounce when applying bold strokes with pastels. I almost forgot the feature which originally put it ahead of the rest, it accommodates canvases up to 56 x 36", signage up to 69".

I haven't started using the easel yet, but it looks like it will serve my needs. The instructions for putting it together are pretty clear and I was also able to take it apart again and fit it back in its nylon storage/carrying bag. There was one small part that was defective, but a call to the seller got me a replacement part in just a few days with no hassle, no fuss.

Best Deals for Alvin Heritage Aluminum Watercolor Easel

This can be used as a drawing table, a painting easel, a watercolor table. The only drawback is that the legs do not lock in place. The crossbar holds the front 2 legs securely, but the back leg has to be readjusted if you move it.

I ordered it after a member of our local portrait group brought his to a session. We have a large group and getting a good place to work is not always easy. This easel allows one to sit and draw on flat, or angled, or upright surfaces without taking up a lot of room or blocking others.

I like to work on 2 or more paintings at a time and this is an economical way to do that without taking the piece off the easel.

I bought several colors of this paint in the satin and pearl finishes and I use them to paint fabric, but I also used them on wood. They are great for just about any project, as they are suitable for many different surfaces, including glass and metal! I admit, they did not stick to the plastic I painted, but it was just a shot in the dark to see if it would work. Overall, I would recommend these paints. Even though they are just a little pricey, it is worth it to save space in my crafting area because I do not have to have 8 bottles of the same color to use on different surfaces!

I bought these pens on sale a few years ago with other Faber Castell Artist Pens (Manga Grey Set, Manga Color Set), all of them advertised form Manga art. However, It was just a week ago when I started using them. Even after all these years, the ink good.

For practicing my manga art, I use 50 lbs. sketching paper instead of 110 lbs boards, but the ink stays in the right side of the paper without much smearing. The ink dries very fast, I can turn from inking to erasing in just a few seconds with no smearing.

This set includes four pens ranging from medium, fine, superfine and extra superfine nibs. It is advertised for Manga, but there is nothing that constraint this set for that purpose. It also lacks a brush pen, but you can get a separate black brush pen or even in a set of grey brush pens like I did when I bought this set. I highly recommend these pens.

I was disappointed that these hoops did not fit my Brother SE400. It seems as if they were not machined well and off by just a millimeter or two, just enough that it would not fit into the embroidery hoop holder on the sewing machine.

Not only did all of them not fit correctly (the Brother ones fit perfectly), but you can't embroider anything larger than 4"x4" on this machine, so the seller is being a bit deceiving by telling you that the large hoop fits this machine. The large hoop has four connectors, whereas the small and medium hoops have two connectors, same as the machine.

I read another review that says these don't fit a Brother Se400 and they do! I'm using the same machine. It is nice to have a back up 4x4 hoop since the one that came with my machine gets pretty sticky. I am learning to use the big one to do bigger projects I'm not sure how big it is. I haven't used the hat hoop because I haven't had a need. Pretty good product!

Even though the item title clearly says it will fit a Brother SE400 machine, these will not fit. DO NOT buy. Even trying to force them in they don't work. The plastic piece that should snap into place sticks out farther than the original holder and they will not lock down.

******UPDATE******

I was able to exchange these hoops for a new set and the new set works much better. They go in and out of hte machine very nicely. It appears that the bracket and the plastic hoop were not sitting flush to each other and one bracket was bent. This is what caused the issues I was having. These new hoops work great!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program What could be more appealing to a little girl than princesses, bright colors and glitter? The 12 sturdy pictures in this coloring book feature a series of pretty Disney princess poses, each printed on a background of glittery paper. The glitter is integrated into the paper and does not flake off. The 5 included Color Wonder marker pens interact with the paper to turn the pictures into pretty works of art. The markers apparently do not leave stains on clothing or furniture, though I didn't put them to the test. Though the recommended age range is 3-15, I believe this would most appeal to little girls up to about 7 or so. At ~$1/sheet, it's a rather steep price to pay for what is essentially a coloring book, but definitely a special occasion gift that a little girl will appreciate.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I used to work in travel related retailing, and I learned a vitally important lesson. Parents are absolutely starved for activities that are self contained and mess free. For this reason, I actually stocked quite a few of these Crayola products. One of our biggest sellers were the Color Wonder series. In Color Wonder, the magic markers can only react to the provided paper. So you can create an artistic masterpiece with no worries that your child will splatter themselves, neighbors, clothes or upholstery with ink. It's an ingenious idea, to be sure, and now they've taken it to the next step. This series featuring the Disney Princesses (always an easy hit) is actually done on a special glitter paper. So you've got both coloring and glitter effects with absolutely no mess. It's a winning scenario.

This set has 12 pages to color and five different color markers. Truthfully, the designs aren't the most complicated or detailed but that's probably to be anticipated. There is only so much you can expect with this super magic technology! This may not entertain for long trips, but it is a fitting diversion for a short period of time and an easy recommendation for the budding artists in your clan. KGHarris, 10/13.

My daughter was so excited to get this because she loves glitter. However, you cannot even color on the part that contains the glitter. It's hard on the markers and the color doesn't show very well. You're better off going for the metallic or the glitter pages without the actual glitter.

Honest reviews on Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Glitter Paper and Markers

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program There is one true thing about this item – the paper does have a glittery sparkle with no glitter mess. That is where the pretty much the only truth to the cover. First off, your pictures will not look anything like those on the cover. The picture on the box is bright and vibrant. Our pictures never looked that bright. Also, if you want to color the princesses the way they look on the box, you will have to buy additional markers because you don't have the necessary colors.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My daughter is a huge Color Wonder fan, and over the last three years, we've bought just about every Color Wonder book out there. We've tried Metallic and Glitter books several times and, unfortunately, have never been really happy with them. The older Glitter books, in particular, got those little sparkly bits all over everywhere, including on the tips of the markers, thus preventing them from working.

Anyway, I'm happy to say that Crayola seems to have completely redesigned their Glitter books, and we love this new incarnation. There's nothing to make a mess... instead of actual glitter, the pages of the book simply have a background of sparkly foil around the parts of the picture you can color. The foil effect creates a really beautiful finished look, and my daughter was so proud and pleased with her work!

The only real negative about this coloring book is its price. Not only is it more expensive to start with than the regular Color Wonder products, but it has fewer pages... just 12 instead of the usual 18 or 24. I'm not sure it's worth paying almost $1 per page, but my little artist definitely loved it!

This is the 13th Bucilla kit that I have done and marks the beginning of the 3rd generation of recipients. My mother started making them for her grandchildren's first Christmas and delegated me to carry on the tradition with the arrival of our first grandchild! "Gifts from Santa" is for the daughter of our first grandson and our first great-grandchild.

I think this was the most difficult one..the printing on the foundation piece was difficult to see. I agree with other reviewers that the felt, especially the white, was of uneven quality. I was missing one color of sequins and beads, but this was corrected within a very few days of notifying Amazon. This was the first time I have ever found a shortage. One item I have found very useful is the little weekly pill holders (available at the pharmacy) for separating sequins and seed beads. This is not a project that can be completed in a few days but it is well worth the effort.

I love the Bucilla Santas and will not use any other. The instructions are clear and pieces are well marked-except the dark ink on blue! The stocking turned out well in spite of the above problems and I am pleased with it. I'm sure there will be more!

Don't get me wrong it looks very cute but it takes forever to do. I mean hours upon hours. Directions are not the best either I find myself having to look at the Colorado picture a lot after seeing what piece goes next. Also do not lose the skinny needle otherwise you will have a hard time finding a replacement that will fit through the beads. You will also need to get some other fabric to sew to each side of the stocking otherwise it is very flimsy and you will be able to see all the thread on the inside.
