Promising review: "Perfect way to get started again after 40 years! This kit includes everything you need with a review of the stitches. I throughly enjoyed it. Perfect for beginners or fun for the experienced. Plenty of thread with a lot left over. I am ready for my next project!" —Susan

Promising review: "I love this!! It makes the perfect size little mini loaves. I bought for Christmas to make little loaves to include in my goodie bags. I prefer a loaf to slicing up a larger loaf. I did research how much batter and people said it is just like one recipe for a large loaf so that's what I did. It fit perfectly!! Way to go Wilton. Loafs just fell out of the pan and I didn't spray it with anything." —Lori Garcia

Promising review: "This was my first ever 3D puzzle so I was a little worried about the difficulty level. I enjoy doing Legos but wanted something a little different so I decided I would try something like this. Absolutely loved it! In my opinion, much more challenging then a Lego structure so also more rewarding when it was completed. I would recommend this to anyone, not just Harry Potter fans. Great puzzle and I am very happy with my purchase!" —Matt McSwain

Promising review: "Beautiful hardcover cookbook with so many yummy Disney recipes from the parks! There is lots of Disney foodie history in it, plus recipes that look easy to follow with high quality ingredients. There are fun maps of each of the parks inside where the food is located from which makes it fun. As an avid Disney fan, I have never seen a cookbook like this." —Nicole

Promising review: "I bought these to decorate canvas shopping bags with my nephew as gifts for the family for holidays 2019. They did a fantastic job on heavy canvas. I was worried they would be too light but every bag came out fantastic. They were easy for him to use and they had great coloring power. They were vibrant and did not dry out in the hands of a furiously coloring eight-year-old. We have used them a few times since and they’re still great." —&

Promising review: "I am amazed at how easy it is to make candles! I made small mosquito-repellent candles for my wedding. I just added a colored dye and scent after I melted the wax. Was super easy and quick to make. The hardest thing for me was to wait for it to cool down and solidify. I even had my kids help. They thought it was fun to mix colors to create their own. This wax melts nicely and doesn't really have an odor by itself." —Amanda

Promising review: "I got this for my daughter for a project over her summer break from school. I was amazed at the quality of the parts and materials as well as the assembly instructions. Note that this is NOT for the faint of heart! It looks like it could easily take 20 hours, or longer to fully assemble this as it is a serious doll house kit, and can definitely provide lots of enjoyment for someone who likes building these kinds of things. Worth the money." —Life and things

Promising review: "Babies grow so fast and they have the cutest little hands and feet. This keepsake is a great way to remember how small they were. I love that the frame holds both the prints and my baby's photo. The clay was soft and easy to knead but did take some work. Overall, a fun experience with my baby! Now I can look back at her little toesies!" —shopaholic

I bought this for my daughter who is starting out a new art class — this has pretty much everything she needs to get started and we didn't have to buy a million different items! it's great for student artists and the stuff is all good quality.

Promising review: "Oh my gosh, I love this! I got mine in the mail yesterday and ended up playing with it for about five hours last night LOL. It connects via Bluetooth so you can connect it to your phone — the music and your singing comes out of the microphone's speaker. It has a volume control for your voice and for the music and also an echo feature. You can put an SD card into the bottom of it and record yourself, or connect it with an audio out to record on one of those karaoke apps on your phone. Between this and being able to find just about any song on karaoke via YouTube, you could easily have your own karaoke parties at home!" —Ferretocious

Promising review: "These tile stickers were super easy to install! I am not a crafty person and don’t do much DIY beyond painting, so the fact that they were easy for me is really saying something. Watch a couple of YouTube instructional videos and you will be all set. The tools I used were: scissors, a level (from my phone), a pencil. I cleaned the walls really well and got right to it. Was done in about an hour. The most challenging part was having to cut a strip for the top row of tiles underneath the cabinets. I cannot attest to how long they will last, but the adhesive on the back seems pretty good! Can’t really beat it for the price! Especially when compared to professional install of real subway tile." —pilon051008

Promising Review: "I bought this for my son and me to experiment with an herb garden during the quarantine. We had a blast setting these little growers up. It comes with everything needed to start an herb garden. The little soil discs were weird at first to get expanded but we got the hang of it easily. My 8-year-old had enjoyed the planting and watching the seeds develop over time. We are moving into the transplanting phase soon and hopefully, we will be able to keep it growing through the summer. This kit comes with enough seeds to plant multiple times. Very well presented with different booklets for each phase of the seeds." —Virginia LaBorde

Promising review: "AWESOME ITEM. My 11- and 12-year-old have played with this NONSTOP. The movies they create are so cool. Adult help is required at first but once they get the hang of it, watch out because you'll find numerous story lines and little Lego scenes set up around your house. Whoever came up with this item is a genius. I'd even go as far as saying it's the best toy I have ever purchased for any of my five kids. Worth every penny." —Brandy Lynn

Promising review: "Great little kit to get started home brewing wine and or cider. All you need to add is the juice and sugar. I brewed my first gallon of wine ever using this kit and made a delicious apple wine. I have now upgraded to six bottles and I keep five of them going at all times. Well worth the money. These make a great gift for somebody that likes to DIY or just a fun little hobby to work on. I regularly use this kit to make wine that tastes way better than the stuff I can buy at the store for a fraction of the cost." –Screant
