This is my first time crocheting with an acrylic set and there is a huge difference between the acrylics and aluminum hooks. The acrylics tend to "stick" between stitches, but no so much that it makes the task more difficult. I simply just run my fingers through my Rusk shine hair product when needed. Overall, I am pleased with this product; crochet hooks are very expensive when buying in-store.

It's uneasy to use. The size was ok but the material was not as smooth as aluminium. Regret order them!!!!

Honest reviews on Darice Acrylic Crochet Hook with Styles L11, M13, N15 and P16

I used several of these hooks. They work very well with thick yarn. I made several cowls & they came out nice. The right

hook makes a difference when crocheting. A bigger hook is more comfortable & does a better job when using thick yarn.

And pretty colors also!! I would recommend this product.

I followed a tutorial for making flying geese with this and the Easy Angle ruler and was not able to get them to turn out right. However, I used it for making half square triangles from a precut strip of fabric and it worked great. It will be useful, but maybe not as useful as I had invisioned.

I just recently started sewing again, and thought this would be a nice little item to have, it has all the things you would need for sewing. There are plenty of threads, in lots of different colors. It does have several storage areas, and all the basics. Some of the items are small, but for the beginner they are very good. I ended up taking out what I would use, and putting the box up on the cupboard. It would be very handy if you were going to attend a class for sewing, you could have everything in one spot. There is even a pocket to hold the patterns. So after looking at it, for me, its not exactly what I was looking for, but for some one just starting out, it would be perfect. It would be a great gift for the beginner seamstress.

Save your money, and do not buy this! My wife started up sewing, so I bought this for her thinking it had everything she needed to get started (less a sewing machine of course). I thought this was a perfect gift. Well I was wrong. She's making me return it. Where do I begin? The threads are of poor quality. It's weak & cheap. The needles and the pins are as if they are made of aluminum because they bend easy. The pin cushion is a joke. It's smaller than a golf ball. Useless! Thimbles are crushable. Scissors are feel like they won't last very long. The kit itself is cheaply made. First of all, the spools of thread keeps falling out of the holders every time it's opened or your about to close it. The kit is made of flimsy, cheap plastic. I doubt it would last a year of usage. The button to open the kit is impossible to open. My wife struggled and fought with it every time she needed to open it up. This is really a piece of junk! My wife is planning to buy a caboodle makeup holder or a fishing tackle box with the refund money.

Honest reviews on Singer Sew Essentials Storage System, 165 Pieces

Low quality thread, low quality tools, low quality case. On three days of light use one of the arms broke off. After a few weeks one of the large sides broke off.

The spools are always falling out no matter how well I stick them on. This didn't end up being worth the money. Maybe for a young starting newbie. I was getting back into sewing and had managed to misplace a lot of my tools in a move. Wanted to kick-start my new set and ended up buying all new tools on top of this.

My wife has this storage system and we hate it. The button/latch mechanism that holds the box shut is positioned poorly. 90% of the time when you pick it by the handle the button/latch to open the box fails and dumps your stuff on the ground below. If we got this out more than once a year it would be in the trash by now but the usage vs cost of a new one doesn't seem worth it. Avoid this product, unless you enjoy re-sorting your supplies on a regular basis.

As I have written elsewhere... I have put together a set of these brushes (2, 4, 6, 10 & 20) that I use to apply a cobalt/gerstley borate mix (Floyd blue stain) and mason stain/gerstley borate mixes on bisqued porcelain: They're almost perfectly suited to it! They hold quite a lot of material. The point is superb. Flow is superb. Action is excellent. With them I can create beautiful and *long* sharp lines (depending upon technique, of course; they are also well suited to creating a beautiful mess if that's what you're going for!) Worth every penny! (especially at these prices)

I have to admit, I bought a size 0 brush first because they don't look small in the picture. The size 0 would be good for painting the Lords Prayer on the head of a pin. The size 4 brush is just right. It will paint a line six inches long easily without reloading paint, probably longer if you load it up. It paints a very thin line easily which I would guess is about the thickness of a 0.5mm pencil lead. The price is right, and the handle and ferrule are up to snuff. I'm happy with the purchase, and would buy another if I wore this one out.

I've always used Strathmore Watercolor Blocks. Although the quality of Strathmore is nice, now that I've used Arches I can't imagine using anything else. Arches seems to be in a category all it's own when it comes to paper quality. Arches is substantially thicker, holds water and color very well, and when using the watercolor block does not buckle even when using a lot of water. You can use tons of water and layers of paint, and it never effects the paper underneath the piece you're working on. I couldn't be happier. Plus the price of this paper when buying from Amazon is fantastic and affordable.

List Price: $17.07

This product does exactly what it says it will do, and it does it easily and reliably. The final finish has the natural and random pattern of naturally occurring rust. I used this on a plastic project. The plastic did require a primer, but the iron coat held without any issues and applied easily. The website suggests 2 coats, but 1 did just fine for me. Applying the antiquing coating at different times (ranging from 30 min to 24 hours) after applying the iron coat increased the variable appearance of the final finish and added to the final natural appearance.

Looking forward to trying this on future projects and other surfaces.

I purchased a copper coating set for a wooden box I wanted to decorate. I also purchased their primer, as directed, and primed the box in advance. The copper coating turned the box maybe a slightly darker color, if you squint. I've put on several coats now, and it's made no difference. I may as well be painting this box with water.

EDIT: I've now gotten the product to work. The bottle said to shake well. I shook it quite a bit, and after getting so little paint coverage, I went back and shook it super hard, for a very long time. What came out looked much more like the paint I expected. I still had to apply much, MUCH more than I expected to get any kind of color coverage. But, the final result delivers well enough. It doesn't really look like copper when applied -it very much looks like copper paint, though it's a nice shade of copper paint.

So, final review, shake this thing like your life depends on it, and slather on huge gobs of it, and you'll get a pretty decent product.

On one hand, it did age the object, giving it a centuries-old iron look that I liked.

But there just wasn't a lot of rust. Nowhere near the photo. Probably around .05% of

Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Glitter Paper and Markers Review

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $10.99
Sale Price: $9.79
Today's Bonus: 11% Off

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!
