Cheap Sterling Edwards Signature Series Brush Set with DVD

Customer Ratings:

I'm slowly getting into watercolor and have fought the battle of cheap paint, cheap paper and cheap brushes. Aaaaarrrggghhh !! But that's how you learn. I had checked out a lot of different brush reviews and liked what I read about these brushes but the regular price was a little steep for me. When I found a deal for almost half price here on Amazon I snapped them up and I'm glad I did. I love them. Although I am a beginner. I could immediately tell the great quality compared to some other brushes I had bought and tried, and the blending and glazing brushes allow even me to get those distant trees and foreground grasses looking good. My wife is amazed at my progress ..... The DVD that comes with the brushes, is loaded with so much information, tips, and techniques that I have watched it over and over. To me it alone was worth the money I paid for the whole set. Funny thing, the more I watched and listened to Sterling Edwards, the more I realized he is a lot like me and that leads me to believe he is the kind of person that would never have his name on any product that wasn't top quality. I highly recommend this set ......

Watercolor is hard to learn. Sterling really has a great 4 step plan. Having the same brushes he uses in the demos is really nice and they are great brushes.

Joann also sells this, but this merchant is the best price I've seen.

Wait for sales, and free shipping. Do not pay more than $170 for this item.

Spools sell online for $1.70 each, at this price you get the cabinet for free.

The "Sew All" version of this is 100 spools of polyester thread 110 yards in each spool so it is the normal size Gutermann thread spool. Normally, those spools would retail for about $1.80 each (full retail). There are other "100 spool in-home assortments" that contain (a) all 100% natural cotton, (b) all silk threads, (c) all embroidery etc. I bought the Sew All version at a fabric store today with a 40% off coupon, paying less $1/spool.

While that is a great per spool price, the cabinet it comes in is what sealed the deal for me. It appears to be a very sturdy frame (could even be wood), with a heavy duty "drawer pull" handle on the top. The handle allows for easy carrying (it isn't too heavy) and it will stand on its own on a table or floor. No wall mounting devices are included, although it certainly could be mounted on a wall. Each thread slot is labeled with the thread number and holds up to 3 spools per slot, so you could store up to 300 Gutermann (small) spools in this cabinet.

So if you have a lot of Gutermann thread this is a great buy from a thread storage perspective too. The slots will not take the bigger Guntermann spools, although the plastic is flexible enough that you could try, but probably isn't worth trying if you break the plastic. The plastic is very flexible and I expect it will last a long time.

The thread is made in Germany (naturally!) and the cabinet is made in Mexico. I could not believe how sturdy the cabinet is not the junk that you usually see, that is for sure! I am very pleased to have noticed this item, because now, in a pinch, I'll always a have a color that is "close enough' without having to worry if the store is open, stand in line to pay etc.

I love this!

I love love love having the perfect color available in my resources. This is one of THE BEST purchases I've ever made.

Honest reviews on Gutermann In-Home Thread Assortments

This thread is just as described, high quality. The price for 100 spools is excellent! The best part is the carry display. It's very solid and there is room to add additional spools if you have a multispool project. You can wall mount it or just tuck it away. For those of you who have dedicated sewing rooms, this will look great on your wall. The display is very compact and takes up much less space than the bin storage units.

Ordered this for the little woman for Christmas said she wanted Gutermann thread because it's the best (what do I know from sewing thread I'm into guitars, cameras and guns). Anyway, it was shipped quickly and arrived just before Christmas. Beautiful display case with 100 rolls of different color thread. She loves it. The little woman is happy and when the little woman is happy.... I'm happy :-).

You can not use this product with any of the other felting tools. You must purchase a special needle holder, that is made by Deminsions. I don't like that.

I understood that the needles broke easily so I got the replacements to have on hand in case one broke but I haven;t needed one yet. I think if you use the needle punch the ay you're suppose to you won't need them. just didn't want to be in the middle of a project and have a needle break and bring it to a standstill .

Honest reviews on Dimensions Needlecrafts Feltworks Replacement Felting Needles

I liked that you got quite a few needles for a good price. I am using them to hand felt, not as a replacement in the felting too. They worked just fine.

Pay attention to what your holder looks like as you take it apart. There's a spring in there so remember where it goes. Other than getting the spring in the wrong place, there's not much to go wrong with replacing a busted needle. I was back at felting in a matter of minutes. The needles were identical to the original needles. They are very sharp, so keep your fingers out of the way. Felting is fast once the needles are in the holder.

I gave these two stars because they are not solid silver. I realise now that they do not say they are sterling but the fact they do not say silver plated can be misleading. Be warned that if you use these in jewelry you intend on wearing all the time, the copper will show through after a couple of months.

These have dainty, detailed tips, but be careful with the metal because it is fragile. I created some great earrings with these.

It's just cheap thread, exactly what you would expect. Some spools seemed to be cut in the first 20 feet or so but after that it seems fine. I have very limited experience with this stuff, and just needed something to get started with a new machine, seems fine and the price was right.

Discount Copic Markers MLA2 Multiliner Inking Pen, Set A-2

Customer Ratings:

I bought my first set of multiliners five years ago, when I first started inking. They've always worked extreamly well, with only a few insconsistencies that can probably be accounted to the aging ink. After my .3 pen died, I finally had a reason to get a new set.

After five years, I'd forgotten how smooth the ink was when I first bought the pens. But the few picture I've done since I got the new set have been a dream to ink!

I highly reccomend these to both professional and amature artists looking for a high quality set of inking pens. The variety in sizes is excellent, and the price is more than reasonable. I'll definately be ordering again hopefully in less than five years.

These pens by Copic are WONDERFUL. The ink dries on contact so I don't have to worry about smearing. There is a wide variety of sizes to choose from. I've been using them on my drawings with great success. And of course they work great with Copic markers without conflict (no bleeding when using Copic blending pen to push color back into place).

These work well even if not especially long lasting vis-a-vis ink. I use them sparingly in art work. They suit my purpose just dandy. I use the finer-point pens more often than the others but manage to use all of them up eventually. I'll buy more of them.

Like all airbrush paints, it must be reduced to a milk-like consistency. The colors are very brilliant. The biggest issue with airbrushing is troubleshooting problems when it doesn't work properly.

I've tried the blues in this set, but on an earlier pastel, I used MV's oranges and pinks. Gorgeous colors and they lay down rich and intense. Even received some of MV's other sets for Mother's Day and then had to buy a case for large pastels so I could sit and enjoy the display of colors. Only caution -you'll have to wash your hands more frequently because they are so soft. Great addition to the harder style of pastel. If they're too chunky for your use, a judious break into some smaller pieces works. And, oh yeah, they come at a reasonable price.

Honest reviews on Mount Vision Pastel Company 25-Piece Chromatic Set

Beautiful pastels, very vibrant, arrived unbroken and in good shape, good deal. They are medium-soft rather than very soft and work best probably for underpainting or the middle stages of a pastel painting rather than the finishing touches.

Amazing product at an ever perfect price. So pleasant to work with and so soft they are unbelievable. Never thought pastels could be so fun and hassle free to apply. My previous experience with pastels, lead me to believe that they were all just compressed pigment, hard and rough, however I decided to try Mount Vision Pastels, because a friend highly recommended them to me. And behold. I fell in love. Thank you Mount Vision for producing such a wonderful product, one that all artists can appreciate and utilize.

Discount Set of Ten-Well Paint Tray Palettes -with Kare & Kind®

Customer Ratings:

The product is in fact a quality palette and I was pleased all around. However when it arrived I was confused with my order and returned to the product page make sure you read the title carefully. The title can make you believe you are getting 10 palettes, when in fact it is a 10 palette well and you get a set of 3. I can't say anything wrong, other than I didn't read it well, but the title can be misleading. I thought I was getting 10 palettes and had to go back and order more.

Makin's USA Clay Cutters, Snowman, 3 Per Package Reviews

Customer Ratings:

These clay cutters are truly darling! However, they are much smaller than I thought they would be! The largest cutter is appoximately 1.75 inches tall, the medium cutter is just under 1 inch and the smallest is about .75 inches. I was going to use the smallest cutter for earrings, but it is nearly impossible to tell that it is a snowman. The medium size is marginal. I used the larger cutter to make a pin. I used texture sheets to decorate the snowman with snowflakes, cut out a hat with the cutter and decorated it with the star texture sheet and then embellished. It came out very well. The other two just don't seem very worthwhile.
