Wire Wrapping Beginner Kit by smiliemom on May 4, 2011 5 stars
Pros
This is a great book on CD. I could follow the instructions and have made several necklaces out of fused glass and wire wrap them. I have brought some of my friends over and have been teaching them how to wire wrap. This is fun.

Ponytail Holders - 5 Pack by [email protected] on May 3, 2011 4 stars
Pros
Easy to use.
Cons
Between the cost of the item and shipping, they are very pricey. There just so much one can charge for selling a ponytail holder.

Nugget Foiler by maryanndevins on April 27, 2011 5 stars
Pros
Awesome!
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
When I first saw it I thought it was a pretty cheap looking piece. Then I used it. It's worth every dime I paid which wasn't much.

Bullseye Thinfire Shelf Paper 20-1/2" Sheet - 50 Pack by JulieLarson on April 27, 2011 5 stars
Pros
This paper has multiple benefits, it is simple to use, requires no fuss (such as wash having to cure), leaves a very smooth finish on the glass and can be used in slumping molds as well as on the shelf. the quality is wonderful, I have not had any problems with glass sticking when using this paper or getting those large bubbles in my work caused by shelf wash. It is well worth the price just for the decrease in aggravation and wasted time when using other products.
Cons
Price is the only con, however, when compared to the frustration at having a piece ruined because the kiln wash caused bubbles, it is worth every penny.

Contemporary Fused Glass by marilynweil on April 26, 2011 5 stars
Pros
I have several books on fused glass and this is the most complete book on the subject that I have seen. It covers almost any technique that you can imagine. It would be good for both beginner and a fuser with some experience.
Cons
The price is a little high, but it does have a lot of information.
Other Thoughts
If you only want to buy one book - this is it! The only book of its kind that I would highly recommend.

Fusing Photo Paper - 10 Pack by hpuryear on April 26, 2011 5 stars
Pros
Easy to use, clean and professional looking results, best product sold by the greatest supplier.
Cons
Should have a bit more detailed instruction. Use this product with plain untreated glass, any type of finish will most likely not allow the product to "take hold"
Other Thoughts
Like this product a great deal. On the first firing, use the slumping cycle. Prevents the image from burning off too fast. Then you can cap and do a full fuse. A tack fuse cycle does not work. Stay with the slumping cycle for the best results.

Pre-cut Wine Bottle Ring Kit by greymalkin on April 25, 2011 4 stars
Pros
Very quick and easy to make. Will definitely make this again.
Cons
Directions state to wrap grapes in lead came but I opted to foil and tin them instead and the results were great. Had to be creative with the twisted wire as there wasn't extra if you made one piece slightly too long.

Snap on Brass Night Light Clip - 12 Pack by jost4kicks on April 24, 2011 4 stars
Pros
Works like they are supposed to. I didn't look close enough and was expecting the ones with a screw on the back.
Cons
none, they work.

Medium Sterling Silver Plated Jewelry Bails - 25 Pack by jenarchie on April 24, 2011 4 stars
Pros
So far these sterling silver plated bails are working well with my glass jewelry projects. I was skeptical at first, but after attaching a few for making pendants I think the final product looks very nice, professional and elegant.
Cons

Large Sterling Silver Plated Jewelry Bails - 25 Pack by jenarchie on April 22, 2011 4 stars
Pros
I wanted to add a nice bail accent piece to my glass jewelry tiles. I wasn't sure about using them but on recommendation I thought I try it out. This was definitely a good call. I'll keep using them on my projects.

4 Point Celtic Knot Bevel Cluster by nanantz on April 20, 2011 5 stars
Pros
Makes an exquisite panel. As with all bevel clusters, the "pattern" they give you is more of a guideline. One should follow Delphi's suggestion: "Always lay out bevel clusters on pattern before cutting glass to adjust for small differences." I love all the bevel clusters I've purchased - never had problems with any of them.
Cons
none
Other Thoughts
During the annual bevel sale, this is an Outstanding buy.
