Discount Washi Masking Tape 27 Sheets Korea Pretty Sticker Set - Sticker

Customer Ratings:

you don't get that many stickers for $8 and the patterns start to rub off fairly quickly. they are paper stickers, not plastic, and therefore have an "office label" type texture rather than a "scotch tape" one. not exactly like washi tape.

I bought these chalks last year when I need to replace my chalks from Artist Affordable. I teach school so I used my pastels to write on the board and chalk visuals. You will find they color smoothly and are easy to rub in without leaving your visual looking fuzzy. The colors are bright and easy to work with. They are great for shading because there are so many colors. This is the best set of chalks that I have ever owned. I would recommend them to all my teacher friends.

Best Deals for Faber Castell Gold Faber Studio Soft Pastel Set - Box of 48

In looking for a wide variety of colors, I chose this set of Faber Castell Gold Faber Studio Box of 48 because of its range and value for the price. As a semi-professional artist, my venture into soft pastels began with another brand. Faber Castell offers many in-between shades that I didn't have in my collection. I like to try many colors and hues because in art I love having options available to me! A set of smaller sticks lets me sample and use a color for a project and then decide if I like it enough to continue using the particular color. For instance, there is an olive/cement color that was a perfect complement to my other colors--not too olive, nor too gray, it just fit my requirements. The quality of this set was satisfactory for me and the sticks weren't crumbly like some others. I use this product in combination with another product I reviewed, "Acrylic Ground for Pastels" (see my review on this product, too).

Honest reviews on Faber Castell Gold Faber Studio Soft Pastel Set - Box of 48

I'm a pastel junkie and a professional artist. I didn't know that they would be so tiny, but the price is reasonable. They perform like hard pastels or chalk pastels. The 48 colors are bright and are great for beginners. I already own expensive pastel sets and I needed a less expensive brand to practice rough sketches or linear work. I would've love to see them longer like traditional pastels, but Faber Castell's Soft Pastel Set is fun to experiment with!

Buy X-ACTO #2 Knife with Cap, Silver (X3602)

Customer Ratings:

I was originally looking to purchase the smaller X-ACTO knife. . . but then I saw this one with the cap, and I didn't see the smaller one with a cap. I find this one works just as well for me as the smaller one, and I really like the fact that it comes with an easily removable cap. Just a small thing, but it keeps the blade from cutting things. . It keeps the blade from getting dull so quickly by "banging-around". . . . It also keeps the knife from rolling off the table, because it has two little "wings" on the sides. Because it's a little larger, I think it fits a little better in my hand too.

Up until now, I have always used single-edge razor blades or mat-board cutters to cut stencils. Whilst this might work well enough on thick paper for stencils, the finished product (the stencil) is not long-lived. But when using stencil film, razor and matt-board blades are extremely difficult to use. The X-ACTO #@ knife is very sharp and works very well, even on the smallest stencil designs. In fact it is so sharp one should be extra careful of not applying too much pressure whilst cutting. I also love the price. Great product. You cannot lose if you buy this item.

Cheap Spellbinders Wizard Nestabilities Dies, Classic and Standard

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $79.99
Sale Price: $61.34
Today's Bonus: 23% Off

The Nestabilities work great once you fiqure out how to use them with your particular die-cut machine. There are no instructions on how to use the product. But once you get over this hump, they work great cutting all of the shapes included.

They DO NOT EMBOSS however until you buy an embossing pad. Again no instructions so you have to figure this out on your own.

Then there is storage. You need to keep them organized (there are over 100 dies, over 20 in each 4 count pack) but all that is provided is double faced tape to hold them down on cardboard. The tape eventually wears out but in some cases the individual Nestability can be bent due to the force needed to get it off the tape the first time.

Overall the product seem to be in its infancy and needs some improvements to instructions,long term storage and possibly initial packaging. But I am willing to pioneer on!

I've been contemplating purchasing these as separate sets for awhile, and when I found them as a "package" deal here on Amazon, I decided to go for it.

You get 4 coordinated sets of dies. The circle die sets contain 7 dies each, and between the two sets, you can do matting with 1/8" borders. The scalloped circle sets contain 6 dies each, and again, you can do 1/8" matting. But when you combine the two sets, you get a ton of matting possibilities. Layer a circle on a scalloped circle; layer a scallop circle on top of a "plain" circle -with varying border widths.

I use magnetic sheets to store these (Spellbinder Magnetic Die Case combined with ArtBin 6979AB Magnetic Die Sheets, 3-Pack -I use a separate case for my "shapes" nestabilities-style dies (circles, ovals, flags, tags, etc.), so they're always handy and ready to use.

At the time I purchased these (February 2013), the price was excellent for the 4 sets. Definitely happy with my purchase.

I bought there kinds of oil pastel from Amazon to compare them. The other two were Pentel Arts Oil Pastels, 50 Color Set (PHN-50) and Loew-Cornell Oil Pastels, 60-Pack. The other two sets have about half the stick volume per stick as these and do not have a uniform a texture. These are the best buy of the three. I usually use a more expensive brand from Jerry's Art but because these are harder they sometimes come in handy.

I picked these up at a Michael's; getting back into calligraphy and I didn't have any pens or ink. I wanted this rather than the single pot of ink because I was wondering what a pen cleaner would do and because I really like playing with the metallic colors.

I'm still not sure of the advantages of a pen cleaner. I can do the same with any number of other substances. I guess it just looks more specialized?

The silver and gold don't quite have the pop that I was expecting them to. I used to have a pot of gold ink that really stood out, and this is more of a yellow, even after vigorously shaking. I'm sure I'll find its uses, but for now I'm just sticking to the black ink.

I'm very happy, however, with the black ink. Everything about it is smooth and it glides onto the paper extremely well. (To be fair, so do the silver and gold; you just can't see them).

Also, the level of ink within the bottles is about half. That's good for not spilling them, but it feels a little deceptive. Ultimately, I think I would have been better just to get a pot of black ink!

other review says they lost hairs in the brushes already. Well, doesn't most 'new' brushes lose hairs until they are more/less broken in? These brushes have been near perfect for oil painting.

Buy Sanford Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencil Set, 48/Tin

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $75.99
Sale Price: $34.02
Today's Bonus: 55% Off

I have been doing illustration work for my personal enjoyment since the 1980s, and I have been using Prismacolor Premier colored pencils for nearly 15 years. This 48-pencil set was the one I started with, and it served me well. After using these pencils for a while I soon found that I wanted to expand my horizons and I invested in the 120 pencil set. Now you have the option of 72, 120, or 130+ pencil set. Enjoy!

I have to tell you that these pencils are a pleasure to work with. I use them mainly for doing biological and scientific illustration, but I use them for other things as well. I was introduced to them by a professional biological illustrator who's guidance was, use only the best. Of the colored pencils I've used over the years, these are the best I've found.

Prismacolor Premier colored pencils have a soft lead, so soft that you need to tread lightly as you apply them, or the lead is easily broken. On the other hand, the soft lead makes these colors much easier to blend once they are on the paper, and allow you to put down your colors layer by layer and produce the effects you are after.

I find that for my work a good companion investment for these colored pencils is an electric pencil sharpener, because a sharp lead allows you to put the color down onto paper with greater precision, and gives better results.

I have used these pencils on a variety of surfaces ranging from drafting velum to mat board to Strathmore 300 Series Bristol Board Pads 14 x 17, Bristol Pad, 20 sheets, Vellum, and Canson Mitientes 122 Flannel Gray 19x25 Inch Sheet which comes in many colors, as well as hot press and cold press board, 300 lb. water color paper, and a variety of other art boards. Of course, colored pencil works best on a surface that has at least a moderate tooth (paper surface roughness), because once the tooth is filled with lead it is extremely difficult to put down more color.

Word of warning: Make sure that you handle these pencils carefully, because if you drop them on a hard floor the lead can break inside of the pencil, ruining it.

5 stars all the way! You will enjoy these pencils as long as you realize that you can't power them onto the paper, and that the lead will wear down quickly because they are so soft. Enjoy!

Easily blended, brilliantly colored, well crafted pencils. Good for any type of work. Very waxy; if you are heavy-handed, watch out for blooming. They are a little too soft for precision work; buy a few Verithin.

Best Deals for Sanford Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencil Set, 48/Tin

Everyone who has used these pencils, and even those who research them, will know that the soft cores are prone to breakage usually from handling.

1) Check your packaging!

This item was sent to me by Amazon in a box that allowed too much movement inside, and packing

material only on the bottom.

2) Check your pencils!

I found that 2 of the pencils were not from the set I ordered. They had different foil stamps

and a few pencils were shorter ( which means they were Used).

Make sure you get what you ordered, (I didn't get any Artstix in my package) It's not a debate about the usability of Artstix --just give me what I paid for!

All in all, I felt like someone was trying to pull a fast one at my convenience. At least I only have to wait another week (even though I am a Prime member) and hopefully will get the right item packaged and shipped correctly, new and unused.

Honest reviews on Sanford Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencil Set, 48/Tin

I got the pencils on time, and compared the horror I went through ordering a different set of pencils, this was easy. However...

1) There were no "bonus artstixs" in the package.

2) Package allowed for way too much movement and breakage.

3) All of the pencils were sharpened and as much as half an inch was missing from the pencils. (2 pencil tips were broken off from what looked like the sharpening)

4) They looked used! There were small dents and tiny scratches in all of the pencils, whether this is from someone using or "testing" them or package movement, I'm not sure.

All in all still great pencils, still work, but it's extremely disappointing to have to deal with such low quality from amazon.

These are great pencils. I would purchase them again but not thru Amazon. The product title and review stated Sanford Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencil Set 48/Tin with Two Bonus Artstix. The item came without the two Artstix. I contacted the seller and never got a reply. They also didn't look uniform. They still work great though. I would just pay the extra and buy them from an art supply store.
