This
is a decent set of mop brushes in a great variety of sizes and at a
great price (when I purchased the product, now the price has doubled
up). The brushes have a very long handle, something I love, they look
expensive and come with a plastic nib capsule.The bristles are flexible
and nice and work well with acrylic and watercolours. They clean well,
and so far the bristles haven't fallen or deteriorated.

>
The paint covering the brush handle of the brush peels off easily after
not much use so it exposes the timber, and this is a way for the brush
to get ruined.
> The protective capsule won't fit once the brush
has been used even if you squeeze it, and even if you are able to do it
some bristle strains get out and damage the nib.
> Just one type of brush in this set.
> I would say they're OK, not good quality.
Nothing fancy about this bra stretcher. However, it is a simple but effective one and it does what it supposes to do. Easy to hook/unhook, it stays in place and is long enough to give you peace of mind if you put a bit of weight on. Great value for money.
This
a sturdy large puncher that makes a lovely floral shell pattern on the
border. It is good quality, sturdy and has a small container in the
belly to collect and dispose off the paper waste.

The punch needs quite a bit of pressure to work neatly (meaning, you
have to press it quite hard) even just to punch plain paper.
> The pattern is not always clean.
>
Despite the printed guidelines on the back of the package, the border
is rarely continuous or clean. This might have been solved if there was
some sort of detailed instruction booklet, which was not the case.
> Bulky and heavy, needs a bit of storage space.

If the results were what I expected, I wouldn't mind the price, but,
due to my experience with it, I actually find it a waste of money.
This is a good quality hanger perfect for ties, belts or small silk-like female neckties. Average scarves won't fit as the slots are really tiny and I had difficulty positioning my thinnest scarves. If I had known this, I would have purchased something else. However, if you're really looking for a necktie/tie hanger this is perfect.
I'm a fan of the VersaColour minis, as they make great samplers and are perfect for one-off projects. Besides, they don't take much storage space. This colour is just wonderful, true to the photo. However, unlike other ink pads from the same range I own, this one is a bit chalky and not as inky or liquid as others This is a water soluble ink, so if you want an archival permanent one, this isn't for you. I dislike the fact that, unlike other brands, these minis aren't stackable. You can put one on top of the other, for sure, but won't click into each other. Overall a good product at a good price.
I
bought this set as I was using e a lot of plastic film and I'm
environmentally conscious. This set is great value for money, good
quality silicone and it comes in a good selection of sizes. the material
stretches easily over round, square and rectangular containers and
doesn't deform. Each piece has some sort of handless or tabs that help
with the stretching, which is really handy. They clean easily and I can
throw them anywhere as they're flat and flexible so they can be fit in
very small spaces.
I don't particularly like the colour as it
prevents me from seeing what's in the container. Also, I think that the
two larger lids are too close in size, and I would have loved a bigger
difference in sizes between these two.
For the rest, very happy with my purchase.
I
bought this paper not knowing what to expect as the page info seems to
indicate that this paper is specific for Japanese calligraphy. However,
I got what I was looking for -- a good quality rice paper that I can
use in my mix media projects. It has a soft face and a textured back,
which makes it versatile for different art projects. The paper stands
well ink-jet printers and I got good quality printing results despite my
printer being an average home printer.
The only downside is the
sizing. See my photo with an A4 paper sheet against this paper. This
isn't important for calligraphy, drawing, collage paper making, or for
transferring. However, isn't a good size for printing, so I had to use a
guillotine it to get the right A4 size for printing.
For the rest a great versatile rice paper at an affordable price.
This is a great set of chalk markers in different sizes. The markers are really good quality and they come with a set of sticker tags that you can use around your home for quick notes or to-do lists. I have mine stuck to my laptop, desk and fridge. A sponge eraser is also part of the set and erases the chalk completely with no effort, so the tags can be used endlessly. The different sizes are perfect to use for personal noting or to write big lettering or messages on glass or any large surface. I also use these markers on my art journaling as permanent marker when the surface is porous, but not on gessoed, ModPodged areas or on pastel colours as, otherwise, they aren't permanent. For the rest, they are great value for money.
