These are some of those things I forget to purchase until it's to late, but for a few dollars I have them in the style I wanted, & in a quantity that will last me for a long time. I will probably buy the gold kind from this seller next time I'm supply shopping.

I was a bit surprised that the "book" is only a couple pages and a painting kit. Not cool. I think it should be advertised as a kit. The few pages that are there are fine, really good actually, but it definitely seemed like too little.

Weaver Leather 3/8" Chicago Screws Solid Brass 10 pack
very nice quality, other sets i have purchased have been difficult to find the right screw for the right cap.
Not with these, you grab a screw and grab a cap and there is no fighting to get the two together.
they are threaded all the way to the bottom, so they are a true 3/8". very happy with these.

Magcraft NSN0604 1-Inch by 1/8-Inch Rare Earth Disc Magnets
Me and my dad both love magnets. I ordered these for him for Christmas and when I received them in the mail, I had to check them out. They are super strong and the look/feel of them is great. Like the other reviewers stated, try not to let them stick together, because you will suddenly be confronted with the task of getting them apart. You couldn't ask for any stronger of a magnet thats this size, but you do have to be careful. Like it says on the packaging, they are very brittle. I got two of them too close together, and they flew at each other and when they connected they shattered into very many tiny pieces, but thankfully the strength of the magnets kept the pieces in one big clump, instead of scattering them everywhere. I guess your not supposed to play with them like I was, but how can you resist? These a great magnets with excellent strength, but you just gotta be careful with them.
Ditch Quilting Foot P60494 - Janome / New Home, Kenmore
I bought this so that I could make a quilt and it work great! The foot fit my machine perfectly and I was able to make a lovely quilt! I've since used it for multiple projects and it works perfectly! A great addition to my sewing tools!
3mm Wide Double Sided Layer Adhesive Sticky Tape Sticker
Use this tape instead of what comes with replacement ipad digitizers. Those pre-cut pieces don't provide enough coverage and strength to hold a digitizer on securely. Use this instead.
Tatanka Buffalo Fusible Applique Quilt Pattern Toni Whitney
It was a fun challenge to make this quilt. The directions are fairly straightforward to follow. This quilt and a previous one made from Toni's grizzly bear pattern "Autumn Eyes" won awards at my quilt guild's annual show. The judges liked her designs!
Prang Thick Core Colored Pencil Master Pack, 3.3 Millimeter

These pencils more than met my expectations. As a homeschooling mother of 6, we go through colored pencils at a very fast rate as we use them to illustrate our learning, color in our workbooks, and draw pictures of the things we learn about. I like to work with the basic colors and encourage blending and shading when my children are coloring and drawing.
These colored pencils have beautiful basic hues, and lay down a nice, rich color. They also blend beautifully. At the beginning of our school year this year, I bought about 12 packs of colored pencils, half Crayola, and half Rose Art. I was not very pleased with either. The Crayola tended to be waxy, and the hues on the RoseArt were not quite right, and both seemed to break often. Neither blended as well as I liked. I wanted a better quality pencil, but at the rate we go through them, I could not afford the more expensive art pencils. This pack of Prang colored pencils perform nearly as well as the nicest art colored pencils.
I love having this "classroom pack." It keeps us organized, and we have plenty of each color, right in its place. My children no longer have to dig through their pencil caddies to find their basic colors. We feel much more organized and able to illustrate and draw much more easily. My older children (13 and 7) who have had extensive art classes in the use of colored pencils--they were ecstatic over these. They draw, color, shade, and blend so much better than the Crayola and RoseArt we had been using. My younger children are finding it much easier to learn how to shade and blend, because these pencils are of a much better quality. It is very hard to create shading or a nice blend with waxy pencils that don't leave a rich color, or with brittle pencils, or with pencils that don't quite get it right on the basic hues.
My only disappointment is how these pencils were packed for shipping. We were quite dismayed when we opened the shipping box and saw it full of little colored pencil tips that had broken off. During shipping, the pencils had jumped out of their compartments and as a result, many of them had broken tips. This could be resolved if Prang could seal or shrink-wrap the pencils into their compartments in order to prevent movement during shipping.
However, we sharpened them up and got busy using them right away.
Zipper Rescue Kit, YKK #10 Antique Brass Slider (1 Slider/pack)
I do love this, but it ( 1 in pack) is much larger than this pic and the loop is rounded, not squared. It is about 2" long and 1/2" wide. I had to order a different kit with smaller slides after I rec'd this one, but I'm keeping it for another repair.
3drose Apache Helicopter Square Quilt Sheet, 10 by 10-Inch
Well, I didn't expect such a cool looking Apache Helicopter on fabric. It looks like it has been printed through a inkjet laser printer, but the colors are bold, clear and done very well. I am most impressed. Thanks.
Fellowes 5204002 5MM Letter-Size Laminating Pouches 50-Pk

I did a side-by-side comparison of these pouches against some Scotch 3mil pouches on both Scotch and Fellows branded laminating machines. These Fellowes pouches did impress me as being a little better quality than the Scotch pouches and the end result was slightly thicker and a tiny bit more firm feeling to me. This was true for both of the machines I tested. I've used heavy card stock in these pouches with no issues. The only time I see any waviness is in a half empty pouch. (The instructions do warn you not to run half empty pouches through the machine.) I experienced no color or visibility distortion. I also didn't have any issues with air bubbles as the 2 sides of each pouch are attracted to each other statically, which helps keep excess air out.
Amazing GOOP® Automotive Epoxy Paste 4 oz Kit
I used this back in the day when it was "SuperWeld" and nothing has changed but the packaging, which is 100% better. It comes with an A&B which you have to mix in the supplied "dixie" cup using one of the two freezer pop sticks. It's a one to one mixture so it's super easy to use. You mix it VERY thoroughly and it'll start getting warm. Slather it on and let it sit for a couple of hours so it can harden.
I used this to rebuild some broken plastic tabs on my car. I put it on super thick and then drilled it out. It couldn't have worked better. To replace the broken part on my car would have take several hours due to the disassembly/assembly process, so this REALLY was a life saver.
This product is a bit more viscous than other products, so if you need something super thick like putty, this isn't the product for you. I'd say it's slightly more viscous than toothpaste.
I HIGHLY recommend this product.

I'm in the middle of a crazy photo-organizing project with about 10 15 years of photos and negatives. I'm putting all my negatives in these sleeves:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009R90P/ref=oh_o06_s00_i00_details
They almost fit in these baggies and do fit if you really shove them in. I'm putting the photos from each roll of film in these baggies and then in this box:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003HS7F3M/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
This box fits the bags PERFECTLY! I love it! Now I will have all my photos and negatives organized in clear baggies, so I can SEE the photos/roll of film, plus they are out of the flimsy paper envelopes the developer gives you when you develop them. This was a great buy! Especially at $8 for 100! Now I don't have to worry about my photos getting damaged in storage! Wonderful!
Singer CE-200 Singer Quantum Futura with Digitizing
This is a fairly nice embroidery machine for the price.It does have a few things I don't like but overall I am glad that I purchased it.The embroidery designs sew out beautifully!And getting a machine that you can hook directly to your pc is definately the way to go! It elimanates pricy design disks and cards.You can find lots of great desings on the web to purchase and download to use on this machine plus it accepts many formats.What I don't like about the embroidery aspect is the fact that the large hoop is not a true 5X7.So I have to resize a lot of my designs to fit the hoop.I really wish they offered a larger hoop as an extra accessory!The digitizing software that comes with the 200 is not that spectacular.You can take simple clipart pictures and turn them into embroidery but nothing too complex and the software dosen't allow you to make appliques.I think you can get better digitizing software elsewhere.It also only comes with 2 fonts: courier and block.You can purchase a disk with extra fonts but the disks for this machine are expensive! I think they run around $200.The sewing part of this machine I rarely use mostly because I have a Euro Pro sewing machine that I sew on and comparing the 2 I am all for the Euro Pro hands down.This machine seams to sew a little "rough" in comparison.Overall I think this is a Great starter embroidery machine at a good price.
