Blumenthal Lansing Favorite Findings Basic Mini Buttons, 75/Pkg, Black and White Review

Blumenthal Lansing Favorite Findings Basic Mini Buttons, 75/Pkg, Black and White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These are just over a quarter inch in diameter, for people who use metric, they are 7mm. That makes them the perfect size for some of the smaller scale stuffed animals I make or for clothes for 18 inch dolls. The price is right as well.
Just basic small buttons in a very handy size and a nice price point for hobbyists and crafters.

Singer Long Life Light Bulb 10 Watt-120 Volt-Screw-In Base Review

Singer Long Life Light Bulb 10 Watt-120 Volt-Screw-In Base
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Button Magic just does not do as good a job as a needle and thread do. The plastic fasteners break and the buttons are very loose--one good yank (or an accidental catch on something) and the button comes out, often breaking the plastic "T" ends. Plus, the "T"s need to be pushed through the button holes, often requiring small pliers which can mangle/flatten the "T" tips. Better to just learn how to sew a button on, I say (type)!

I like the buttons a lot. The are good quality and I like the detailing, crisp and clear. I bought several from the vendor and they arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Shipping cost seems to be a bit excessive though. Review by Mark Grant, author of Blood of Scotland.

Why is this item $50,000??? I can get the used one for $25. What parts are included that are worth $49,975?? The package says that the Buttoneer attaches buttons "and more". Are the "and more" items included? Are they diamonds or precious gems? Just asking.

Favorite Findings Button Shank Remover Review

Favorite Findings Button Shank Remover
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had purchased these, as I make and sell jewelry and sometimes like to turn beautiful buttons into rings or earrings. The wire cutters I was using are quite nice, but I wanted to save them for cutting head pins, etc. When I saw these, I thought they sounded perfect, as they say they are easy to use and completely remove the shank. Unfortunately I was very unimpressed with the end results; the blade quickly dulls and it leaves little nubs on the back, so I have to spend an extra 20 minutes filing down what it leaves behind. Instead of these, buy a pair of similarly priced wire cutters - you may still have to file the button back, but at least the cutters won't dull after 3 button shanks!

ArtBin Super Satchel/Slim Divider - Translucent Review

ArtBin Super Satchel/Slim Divider - Translucent
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was a bit disappointed when they first arrived. I bought 2 of these, but when I put them together I found some of the small dividing partitions missing--- 8 from one and 10 from the other (by the way, putting it together is simply pushing the partitions into place...the shelves, lid, everything else is one piece). I contacted the dealer by phone and was told there were no more available at this time and I was offered a refund. I chose to keep them. I thought (if need be)I could use pieces of cardboard. It turned out I didn't need them anyway!
As a storage case it's great! I kept some "dividers" out to make larger chambers for things like fabric markers, seam strippers, needles with threader, etc.. Others are small chambers for spools of threads. Still others for spools plus loaded bobbins. It snaps open and shut with two clasps and seem to be very strong. We have a new cat..... I'm sure countless messes have been avoided. The contents are secure yet easy to identify through the "fairly-transparent" walls. I like the fact that I move it all at one time, like a very small book case/tool box (I can't think of a good comparison). Anyway, if I'm going to use the sewing machine I can bring everything out in a couple of minutes---put it all away just as quickly.
For the price versus the convenance I would highly recommend this to others. And while I was disappointed with the missing parts, I was pleased with the quick response from the dealer (ScrapbookingAlley) in attempting to solve the problem. That's why I decided thar 5 stars was appropriate.

Not sure what happened to the previous buyers unit but the one I have is awesome! I am a wholesaler and rec'd a few of these in stock so I opened one and kept for myself. Literally turns garments back to looking gorgeous! If you read the previous buyers comment you'll see that this is the second one she bought. Evidentally she liked it enough to buy it again except the second one she bought was evidentally from a terrible seller. I will say that the units are delicate so don't drop them or use them until they clog up so bad you can't unclog them. Having said all this, I really love this little slice of heaven.

Quick Snap Replacement Kit 1/2 Snaps
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought these to use on a car cover. After about a month, unlatching them maybe 15 times, some of the snaps are already kind of worn out. I can see rust on some of them, but mainly, 1 out of 4 will not 'snap' anymore. It sort of attaches loosly, but you get no click, and it detaches too easily. I bought this kit because I only needed about 4-6 snaps, and this was a cheap kit. It was easy enough to install, but if the snaps wear out in such a short time, then they are not worth the trouble. I will try to buy another brand, but I have not looked around yet.

Singer Long-Life 10-Watt 120-Volt Screw-In Sewing Machine Bulb Review

Singer Long-Life 10-Watt 120-Volt Screw-In Sewing Machine Bulb
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been looking for 10-watt sewing machine light bulbs everywhere in brick and mortar stores but couldn't find any so I resorted to Amazon. All I could find in the fabric/craft stores around Boston were 15-watt ones. I was happy to see that this seller had the 10-watt bulbs I was looking everywhere for, and I purchased two even though the shipping cost was higher than the cost of two bulbs themselves. However, when I received the light bulbs today, I was extremely disappointed to see that I was sent two 15-watt bulbs. If I wanted 15-watt bulbs, I would've either bought them from an actual store and not have to pay the shipping cost OR I would've purchased a product with the label that actually said "Singer Long-Life 15-watt."
Stuff 4 Scrapbooking, please, in the future, if you are in fact selling 15-watt bulbs, please label your products as such. If you don't carry 10-watt bulbs anymore, then please don't list the item under the pretense that you do in fact carry them. And yes, even though I heard that inserting a 15-watt bulb into a sewing machine that says "10-watt bulb only" or "10W Max" won't really damage the machine, I felt really deceived by the mislabeling and jipped by the shipping cost.
And no, I'm not going to return the items because according to the invoice, I'll be responsible for the return shipping costs, and it's completely not worth it considering the shipping cost is higher than the bulbs themselves.

I owned the original Buttoneer years ago and thought this was the same thing. It is not! It is a pure waste of money. The original had single studs on a strip that fed into the machine and it was very easy to use and very sturdy. This new one you must put the double studs in one at a time, very time consuming. And the worst part is that they are so flimsey they will not hold the button on if there is any pull at all. WOW, am I sorry I bought it!!

Searched & read & tried to see pictures of construction of the refills to make sure these "originals" would work in our "original" buttoneer. They don't, but we had no way of knowing that the whole insertion mechanism of the Buttoneer had changed so much and was still being called "original." I'm sure there is nothing wrong with the refills, but we can';t use them in our 30+ year old Buttoneer.

The Original Buttoneer Fastening System and Refills
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
WHY can't I get refills for my Buttoneer anymore? To see the eminently useful single needle gun-style buttoneer google 'buttoneer 2' and see the original ad from spiketv website. JoAnn now sells what they call "the original Buttoneer", which isn't -- the new double barrelled one is limited to short weak useless fasteners for only standard shirt buttons. In the 80's, Dennison refilled the TRUE original Buttoneer and Buttoneer 2, with strong nylon fasterners for buttons, & other lengths for home/auto repair, crafts. Ronco obviously sold the idea to JoAnn who pressed Dennison to stop making strong, useful fasteners of varied lengths. The NOT-original-buttoneer now sold really robs consumers. The blog reviews agree, but the as-seen-on-tv spammers push them so far down you never see the truth. What a great product this was and could have continued to be.
