5 stars out of 5star star star star star Beautiful Watercolor Bookmark Kit
I purchased this set for my Mother-in-law for Mother's Day. She is an avid reader and artistic. The packaging and tins that it arrived in were beautiful. The paint pad and brush are great, She painted one the first day she got it. She then proceeded to paint the Birthday month bookmarks that coincided of her sister, her daughters, and me, and gifted the bookmarks to us. The quality and concept behind this gift is perfect.

5 stars out of 5star star star star star A BEAUTIFUL crafting kit!
The DIY Stained Glass Mosaic Kit (Cardinal) exceeded my expectations. It wasn't too easy or too complicated, it was perfect for an adult. A child will need supervision but can easily work on this with assistance. The quality was above average; all pieces that were needed were included in the kit and the directions were very easy to follow. It was the perfect way to spend a snowy, winter afternoon crafting!

Better than expected! ( we rarely get to say that- correct?) Picture directions allow you to 'get lost' into that wonderful world of creativity so quickly and quietly!

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Beautiful gift for artistically inclined
So many make-it-yourself craft kits seem either impossible to do or productive of an item you'll never really use. This is doable and beautiful!

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Fun and easy way to learn palette painting.
This kit is really nice and comes with everything you need to get started. It's perfect for a relaxing date night and a fun way to learn basic painting with a palette knife. I have never painted with a palette knife before and was excited to try this out. The instructions are easy to follow for a beginner like myself. We had a great time, I would recommend this kit.

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Great way to learn to crochet!
My wife absolutely loved this kit! She was a complete beginner to crocheting, but she was instantly obsessed with this kit. Within a day she had completely finished! They made it so easy to learn too. The pre-assembled kit was simple to organize, and the video tutorials are perfect for crocheting at any level. And she loves having stuffed animals that she made herself! We'll definitely get more - perfect for a rainy day hobby.
