Angel Cameo Mold by Sheila B on December 19, 2014 5 stars
Pros
Ah, this a reverently detailed mold...that if I pay attention to the subtle detail can indeed create a wonderful gift for others, including myself. 1st try too subtle, but enough detail to want to try again & again. This will be one of my favorite molds....due to obtainable details.
Cons
Not an easy casting mold. Need to pay attention to color layering to ensure the beautiful design is prominently attained.
Other Thoughts
Lovely design. Makes a very inspirationally supportive gift.

Van Gogh Copper by tshires on December 17, 2014 5 stars
Pros
I love this glass. I find that if you are careful when you cut and break the glass that there are really very few problems with the backing chipping. I use it in mosaic projects only, and I score it into tiny pieces. The backing combined with the clear glass on top gives it depth.
Cons
None really.
Other Thoughts
I would not use it with a grinder or in windows.

Patina Buddy by wmw40904200432 on November 30, 2014 4 stars
Pros
Removes oxidation from solder providing a bright surface to apply patina. Its soft enough that it won't scratch the glass, yet hard enough to polish lead. Doesn't leave particles that can rust like steel wool. Its an 'expendable' - but nevertheless lasts through numerous projects. I view it as an essential.
Cons
A bit too course to get some of the nicks and crannies in the solder. Would be better if it were finer, like steel wool.

18" Stainless Steel Knitted Mesh Small Chain Necklace by ziabead (top contributor) on November 30, 2014 5 stars
Pros
Attractive and affordable chain. Will definitely order more.
Cons
Bails or channels through the glass must be fairly large to accommodate the clasp end.
Other Thoughts
A selection of lengths would be nice.

Oceanside Gold Iridized Black Hand-Rolled Opal - 96 COE by none (top contributor) on November 19, 2014 5 stars
Pros
at 1460 it shines beautifully with some cracking which enhances the attractiveness of the glass.
Cons
Takes longer to slump. Use a longer slump schedule.
Other Thoughts
Wish it were cheaper.

17" Votive Bottle Hanger by jenflynnski on November 18, 2014 5 stars

None.

The metal is sturdy and this is perfect to complement your upcycled bottle latern.

Disposable Brush Value Box - Box of 144 by sierracreations on November 15, 2014 5 stars
Pros
I use these brushes all the time. They are a staple in my stained glass studio. I use them for applying patina and throw them away when I finished. I cut the bristles shorter so they work better for me. I also use them for spreading on glue and sometimes for flux. I like to get the box of 144 - they are a good value and last longer.
Cons
For my use, I can't find any cons.
