I saw a video online in which the crafter was using these pens to make a pirate necklace. She was using the markers to color on a metal disk. I needed something that would allow me to color on metal, so I did some research and found out who made the markers that she was using. I discovered that they were Permapaque markers, so I sought to find some. I found them to Amazon and ordered them. They were just what I needed. They dry quickly and can be used to add additional coats if so desired. One can also layer various colors with these markers. I needed them for coloring metal, but they can also be used to mark on paper, glass, ceramic, etc. By the way, my project turned out great, and I'm not all that talented. I highly recommend these markers.

Best Bucilla 18-Inch Christmas Stocking Felt Applique Kit, Nativity Baby Deals

Customer Ratings:

I started this last year, but was overwhelmed by the many small parts, many steps, etc. I just finished it (August, the next year). This kit, and I assume the other Bucilla kits, are not for the faint of heart. If you want it for Christmas, start it about July 4. The finished product looks good, but is rather sparkly with lots of sequins and beads. You cannot eliminate any of these because they are preprinted on the felt. The front of the stocking is rather heavy because of the layers of felt and stuffing. Nonetheless, it turned out to be amazing. I hope my granddaughter grows up to appreciate the amount of work that goes into such an undertaking. The kit was complete, good directions, enough materials. Just realize that there are 85 steps, some of which contain many similar parts (the holly garland, for instance, is one step, but it entails embroidering and sewing many holly leaves plus adding the sequins).

This was a five star for me because everything was well provided. It was simple enough to do, and I don't sew, so thats a big deal. and it works well. The design is beautiful and and the color is vibrant.

Honest reviews on Bucilla 18-Inch Christmas Stocking Felt Applique Kit, Nativity Baby

This felt kit was a pleasure to do. I found the directions easy to follow and my only complaint is that Bucilla needs to be a little more generous with the thread especially black, white and the christmas colors. Fortunately I had some left over from another project that matched and I was able to finish the project. Fast shipping from the seller and I would buy this again! Thanks!

The Bucilla 18-Inch Christmas Nativity Baby Stocking Felt Applique Kit was just what my wife was looking for in an heirloom quality stocking. She made the stocking for our newborn nephew. She has done several stockings by Bucilla and is very familiar with the quality of the stockings. She says that the stocking kits have more than enough materials to complete the stocking in case you lose a few things while putting the kit together. My wife and I would highly recommend this stocking kit to anyone interested in putting a Christmas stocking together in their spare time.

Reviews of Royal & Langnickel Paint Your Own Masterpiece Painting Set

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this with some apprehension, as any painter knows there is a large range of quality in any painting supplies, from extremely poor to excellent. I am now happy to say it is a great buy. It is not what you would consider to be premium quality, but certainly not poor quality either. It terms of value for the price, I was pleasantly surprised. More than reasonable cost for everything that is included. Everything I needed is included, instructions are easy to follow are detailed, and final painting is lovely. The project is suitable for any painting skill level. I did use different brushes than the ones provided, but this is a simply because of personal preference, not any problem with the brushes that are included.

Plaid Mod Podge CS12652 2-Ounce Photo Transfer Medium Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to love this product. And this was a big ole experiment having never seen this product in any stores.

I find, universally that Mod Podge makers are not very good at giving thorough information on their products. I do a LOT of transfer techniques, including image transfer techniques on fabric. And I could not get my questions answered before purchase, so I knew I would have to just try and see.

At first glace, this looked to be a great solution to other fabric transfer methods that require curing, special chemical treatments etc (I have used specially treated fabrics and run directly through the digital printer).

Here is what I did not expect:

-Medium is WHITE and OPAQUE! No matter the fabric under, this will be a slightly rubbery, white paint, that may give an undesired effect around your transfer.

You may or may not want that effect. Be sure to test this first using the image you want to transfer. You MIGHT be able to paint or mask the medium onto the fabric, to the size and shape of the transfer image you wan; and not see any of the Transfer Medium. I can see that working well, but depends on the image and fabric color, pattern, etc.

-Adds some thickness to the fabric. I would not use this on fine or silky fabrics, as the medium is a little bit the consistency of acrylic paints. You can thin it, but too much and your image wont transfer well...which could ALSO be a cool effect.

Other than that, be neat and think carefully about the fact that the medium will become part of your design/transfer on your fabric: you will have a white area on any colored fabric (great for transferring onto dark fabrics. And the Transfer Medium will cover up any pattern you may have on the fabric you are transferring upon.

I also want to say, if there ARE any hints and tip to use this product better than I did, Mod Podge is not sharing them (or was not when I purchased this product).

I know many LOVE Mod Podge and their products. I often find better alternatives across the board, myself.

Just have an idea, ahead of time, of your desired result or experiment on scrap fabrics just to see what happens (which can be fun, too). That may help you to use this transfer medium in a way that is best for you!

After several attempts to get a good photo transfer I have to conclude that this product just is not reliable enough. It is straightforward to get 90% of the image transferred but there will always be blank spots where the image did not adhere to the solution. If you are looking for a weathered / worn look that is okay, but not for new / clean look.

I was so excited when I got this in the mail. The colors are lovely and so much fun to bring my drawings to life. It is a great perk to motivate me to draw more often and improve my sketching skills. You will get a feel of how to use them, it also helps to search youtube for some demos on how to shade with them and other lovely effects. This is a great set if you are new to professional quality markers. You to find out which shades you like and use the most and can order them in bigger sizes. The only thing is that there isn't a great skin color marker, like if i wanted to give a character light to medium skin, or especially ivory skin there isn't really one. The lightest is sort of a creamy pinkish/peachy one. Other than that I love them. I wish they could be just a bit cheaper, but they were worth it.

It's a good starter set, I think it has the shapes you need to try and decide if you like this kind of work, at a very affordable price by the way. You need different pressure with every tool, though. So, it's important to practice in a piece of leather similar to the one of your project, because you can get an image barely noticeable or you can cut the leather depending on which tool you have used, and always with about the same intensity of hammer hit. That would mean 4 stars if I would have received the whole set. The knife was missing, they couldn't dispatch only the knife, so I had to decide whether I return the whole set or to receive a percentage of what I paid. I chose to keep what I got, because I did need some of the tools before holidays. At least they offered these options very quickly.

This tool may be the classic case of the Walmartization of America. Give a cheap price and receive cheap Asian crap!

The tools are cast and not solid steel. 2 of the tools started bending 1/2 way thru my belt embossing project and eventually broke.

If you tap the stamp lightly it may last longer, but you won't get the deep imprint in the leather that will stand out after staining and antiquing.

Review of Monster High Artist Tote Compact Portfolio Set

I bought this for my niece, she loves Monster High. Overall I'm not really impressed about the product. She opened it Christmas Eve and instantly starting drawing. The markers that are included in the set are horrible and cheap. The black and brown pens were completely dried out. The pictures that are displayed on the cover show drawings used from colored pencils. If you are giving this as a gift I would suggest including a pack of colored pencils to go with it. Besides the markers being useless the rest of the set is somewhat creative. The tote is made of plastic and cardboard. There is an assortment of stencils that have many different types of clothing and accessories to draw. The paper in the notebook already has a silhouette outline of each Monster High character, all you need to do is add the clothing outlines and color. This is not the best gift I have ever purchased, and I defiantly paid more than it's worth.

Got this for my daughter's birthday and must say I'm quite disappointed. First, the description says tote. What it really is is a cardboard accordion file with handles. Second, the markers were dried out. I'm giving the product a 3 because the design pad that comes with it is really nice and she loves it. That's the only good thing about this and honestly, I could have purchased the pad separately for a quarter of the cost. I did it this way so she could have the tote. Now I'm out the money for this plus I need to go find her a Monster High tote because we promised her one for her birthday.

Honest reviews on Monster High Artist Tote Compact Portfolio Set

The product was ok but the markers were dried out and my daughter was disappointed to open it on Christmas and not be able to use it. I should have bought the item at Target and paid a couple extra dollars since I had to buy markers and she wasn't able to use it until I bought the markers. I could not get a replacement and it was more to ship it back than just keep it. If I bought this from Target, I could have exchanged the item easily.

Very disappointed in this product because it is all about creating your own art and the pens do not work. They were dried up upon arrival. I would return it if I could tear it away from my daughter who just got it for her birthday, and has been drawing in it nonstop. Basically have to use other pens, and we paid $18 for what amounts to spiral bound photocopies and a file folder that may not last.

These stencils seemed like a great deal for lettering signs. Once they arrived and I opened the package I was immediately disappointed. The material they are made from is the same as a standard manila file folder. The instructions say you can paint right on them. As soon as I did the paper stencils began to curl, paint seeped under the template to create blurred edges despite the fact I followed instructions and used spray adhesive and carefully pressed the templates onto the wood board. I am having better luck outlining the letters using the stencils for the guide and then removing the stencils and painstakingly Filling in the outline with the foam paintbrush. Don't waste your time on these stencils.

This is a lovely little beginning set of Asian/Oriental brushes and materials, but the brushes are very small and I think longer brushes (you could always buy a single longer brush to add to this set) would work better for a beginner to learn the strokes.
