This wooden organizer is not only very elegant looking but also perfect for his purpose. Good quality, nice color. Came in perfect condition. I ordered two for my home office. Now I'm ordering again two for my husband's work office.

Comfortable handle, easy to use, makes cutting strips and longer patterns very simple. Can't wait to use them even more.

Got this for my wife for Christmas this year. I did a lot of research and reading before buying this thing. I learned a lot about sewing machines that I didn't care to know. This things has made her very happy so far. I'm not sure why there are any negative reviews for this machine, aside from the occasional bad unit. But that happens with every product ever made, there is always a bad few that roll off the line. I didn't go with Singer because of the rumors surrounding their current quality levels so I stuck with Brother. She is not dissapointed at all, in fact the opposite. She is elated with all the fun different stitches this thing does. She got out an old dress and just started testing this thing out on it. She showed me like 20 different stitches............BORING. But to her it's killer. Drop in bobin is perfect she says, automatic needle threader works as advertised. No tension problems like some people may say. She says that anyone that has problems with this machine must not know what they are doing. She is not an expert seamstress by any stretch, but she says this thing is easy as pie to use. Highly recommended by her.

great tool for any quilter. having several is not bad idea. if you are like me you have a lot of bobbins.

When you're as thin as I am, this is a must have. Works great for adding an extra belt hole.

This is a nice black paper, not a faded a little like your usual construction paper. Shipping is fast, quality is great. Can be used with many mediums such as chalk, oil pastels, etc. This is a great price compared to the hobby and art stores! Great buy!

I received this machine for a Christmas present in 2005. From then until late 2011, I have used the machine occasionally to work on light sewing projects and repairs. I haven't had any issues with jams or threading issues, but my machine recently came to a screeching halt while working on some Roman shades.I assumed it needed a thorough oiling. The manuals specify only one oiling point - in the bobbin case. None of the rest of the machine is meant to be oiled by the owner. I spent an hour trying to find ways of removing the covers to get into it, and was only partially successful at that.I oiled every joint in the machine that I could access. However, the mechanism still did not loosen up. It apparently has sealed joints that are not serviceable.I took the machine to a local repair shop. The repair person told me that the machine was not worth repairing. He said that these machines are low end and designed for a dozen or so sewing projects before they break and need replacing. He said that Singer has been through several changes over the years that have resulted in very degraded quality and mass-market machines being produced and sold.I learned from this that I am far better off with my old Nelco machine from the 1960s which has all-metal parts and is very serviceable.

Urgent: before you order this, you need to read my experience with this item:Amazon REALLY REALLY needs to change this item's picture because the actual "I carry you" piece is a Bible-quoting poem. I am incredibly disappointed because it has been the second time they sent me this. I had to resent the first one, replace for a new one and it's still NOT what I wanted. And they don't even let me refund it. I have to replace it.

I am not in the paper industry, and I do not know if there is a color standard for "ivory", but this ivory color did not match any of the other ivory colors from other manufacturers, though all the other manufacturers matched each other.also, arrived with a torn wrapper, and dog-eared corners, making it totally unusable.

timely service and good price. I don't know what else to say in this review except that I'm only reviewing it because they've been pestering me with emails to review it. The product is linseed oil for pete's sake. whats to review.

This medium has the heaviest body of any around - about as thick as mayonaisse. It works well when you start to lose the distinction between impasto and sculptural effects. Details stand up well in it and, although there's some shrinkage in drying, it shrinks less than other media. When used to modify the body of liquids, even inks, this gives great thickening power with just a little medium.It also works well as an adhesive for collage and the like, using just about any porous substrate and some nonporous ones. It's transparent when dry (thick layers can look milky, though) but white when wet, so you can see where it's going. The heavy body fills crevices in irregular surfaces, and its high viscosity means it soaks through less than anything else I've tried. If you've had disappointments with liquid glue bleeding into and discoloring delicate papers, give it a shot - after patch testing, of course. And, like all Golden acrylics, this archival material won't damage paper or other materials, is compatible with other acrylics, and washes up with water, as long as you get it before it dries.Great stuff, but goes fast.-- wiredweird

I bought this to use with a brush on 100 lb smooth bristol. When used with a brush it dries gray. Not super black at all. I thought that maybe I had not shook the bottle enough, but even after shaking and stirring- the results were same; disappointing.If you brush over a line made with a pen or marker, you could easily see the line once the ink dried.

I didn't buy this from Amazon, but I own one that I bought from a local crafting store. Being a cute bento enthusiast, I often find myself yanking out my hair when my nori punches don't cut out perfect shaped eyes for my charaben. While I can cut cute little smiley faces just fine with a scissors, making decent small eyes is basically impossible without a good punch.Having a single, handheld 1/8" hole puncher is therefore invaluable to me for making eyes for my onigiri or other characters. Since it's widely available and punches fabulously (though you should still fold the nori sheet once or twice), I highly recommend it for people who aren't willing to pay arms and legs for fancy punches from Japan.

The paper is thick and sturdy, but transparency is so good you can see through it. It is excellent for transcribing Han caligraphy.

I have had no problems out of this hole puncher. It does what it should, has adjustable punches, a rubber base that keeps it from slipping around, and has never gotten stuck on me like the cheaper ones do. I like that it is a bit heavier that I expected, not at all like my last one that was obviously cheaply made. All-in-all, a great buy.

After reading reviews and hearing how many people loved this machine my husband purchased this machine for me for christmas. Had I reviewed this sewing machine right away I probably would have given it 5 stars because I started out doing simple sewing projects, most involving just a straight stitch and it worked fine. However.... for the past 2 weeks ive been doing more detailed projects using different fabrics and stitches. Almost immediatly I found that the machine jammed up with thread on almost every "fancy" stitch I tried. No matter how I messed with the tension it kept jamming. After becoming very frustrated I decided to go with a simple zig zag stitch thinking that i'd just have to make do so that I could at least finish my project without the machine malfunctioning. Unfortunatly even with this stich the machine jammed up, started making a loud knocking sound, broke my needle in half, AND the internal bobbin case broke completly causeing my machine to be broken beyond my fixing. UNBELIEVABLE. I contacted Amazon and they wont return it because it's considered a holiday return and that time frame for a return has expired. Lovely. SO I had to contact Brother directly and get this.... The "bobbin case" is considered a "consumable" item like the needles that is NOT COVERED under warranty (guess because they break so easily). Sooo, my only option is to buy a replacement part and hope I can install it myself to save me the installation charge of $100. I asked the customer service lady I spoke with at Brother "what if this happens again and breaks on me again?". Her response was that I would just have to buy ANOTHER part. Absolutely incredible. I would NEVER RECOMEND any brother item to anyone seeing as how easily my machine broke and am just out of pocket because Brother makes their machines to break and doesnt cover certain parts under warranty. DONT BUY THIS MACHINE.

I have several dresses that button all the way down the front. I have trouble with the thread that holds the buttons at the waist area being worn away by my desk and my seat belt. I hate sewing on buttons over and over again. I remembered that my mother had a buttoneer when I was a child, so when I found it on Amazon I was really excited! I tried it as soon as it came, but to my GREAT disappointment, it doesn't work on my dresses. The skinny little plastic holders are not long enough to go through the button and the material. The plastic is so thin that, even if it did go through, I don't think it would last very long. I was really bummed out. Unless you are using very small buttons and very thin material you will not be happy with this product.

This hot glue gun does what it is suppose to do, maybe to good. The glue is melting at such a fast rate and the nozzle is too large so unless you are using it constantly it is dripping everywhere. Also the cord is only about 2 feet long so you should plan on using an extension cord or be very close to an outlet. On top of that, the cord is very flimsy and cheap. The wire protection separated from the wire after only about 1 month of use. I would not recommend this product unless you are simply looking for the cheapest glue gun for a 1 time project.

i bought this product rushedly. that was a mistake on my part. this sewing dummy does not have the average shape of a woman.for women with wide ribcages and small breasts, wide hips but no [...], this is for you. i am NOT in anyway downtalking women like that. i am simply saying that this dummy was made for women of that body type. i do not have that body type and when i started making clothes acording to this dummy, my clothes were turning out to hardly fit me right at all. not to mention that the dummy does not have a natural curving body. when to the side, it is straight as a board. the natural human body has a dip in the lower back and then curves back out to where your [...] is. not this dummy, though. just straight down. big disappointmentbut other than that there is more bad things to add about this dummyit is not well made. the quality is low. after i adjusted the dummy just a couple of times, the top of the dummy started to detatch from the pole and therefore making the torso completely uneven. the adjusting system is VERY bad qualityi have to use duct tape to kepp my dummy from detatching again. therefore: i can't adjust it anymoreso please if u are looking for a dummy that will fit the average girl's body well and that will stay in tact, do NOT get this dummy

This product does not cut perfect circles. The blade does not fit securely and therefore moves around on the paper when being used. The gripper-sticker that can be attached to secure the arm to the mat makes it impossible to create smaller circles because it makes the blade sit too high on the mat. The mat has no gripper and constantly moves around on the surface you're working. This product was a waste of my money and is being returned.

I've bought a back of these to have kids colour a cardboard house at our party. They've ruined the felt tips beyond repair within 5 minutes. It was a big disappointment. I mean I understand you're not supposed to "draw" with these markers, but kids do anyway and thus scratch off the felt tip immediately.So it is ONLY good for making dots and you better give it to kids that can get this idea and control the urge to paint/draw with them. We had kids between 3.5 and 6 years old.It would do justice if product description would clearly mark in big red letter that these are ONLY FOR DOT MAKING, I personally woudn't have bought it then.Colours are however very appealing, not too dull not overly bright, very clear and dry fairly quickly.

I have had mine, the blue one, for a couple of months now. It seems pricey but it really is a great product. I took it to a crop and it held 15 pages in place with all the embellishments on them. Very little slid at all, metal page corners, etc. stayed put. And why take the chance that your half-done pages will be disturbed before you get back to them? Put them into this, zip it up and it stores in very little space against another piece of furniture. I usually have multiple albums going at once, and have limited table space to work on, this really helps. I also find pre-planning my pages makes my crop time a lot more productive. I used boxes before, but things always slid around. It is heavy to carry, probably because of the metal embedded panels, but most people should be able to handle it fine. In short, I think this is a wonderful invention, and am glad I bought it.

I bought this to replace my Omas black ink that was running out to use in my Lamy 2000 fountain pen. The ink flows fine and gives even coverage on the two kind of paper I commonly use, I would definitely recommend it. The ink lost one star because it is a dark, dark grey rather than a true black as was the Omas but only suffers when held right next to one another. I don't know if this is due to the paper I am using. Also it seems this ink drys a little slower and thus smudges somewhat easier, this is NOT an objective measurement however but a feeling and obviously will depend on the paper used.

In short, the ink is awesome. It flows flawlessly from my new Pelikan and my old Esterbrooks (better than any other ink with the old 9128 nib). Bulletproof is no lie either. I wrote a sample page, waited less than a minute, then put it in my son's bath water (good thing the wife didn't see that) and it still looked amazing. The only paper I've seen feathering on so far is the cheap Post-It note paper.Lots of ink for the price, made in the USA, and better than anything else I've tried in 20+ years of fountain pens.

It's my own fault for not checking the shipping, but I thing almost $7.00 shipping is a bit much for a set of marker not even worth $3.00. Won't make the same mistake.

I assumed that the 5 in the product title description meant i was getting 5 scissors. Especially since the price was around 8 or 10 bucks! I believe the seller maant 5 inch scissors. Obviously im extremely annoyed to have payed that much for a single pair of scissors that ive seem sold for 2 or 3 buck around town.

From reading reviews it seems that this used to be a good product but is no longer such.I agree that these bath crayons, as of 2012, are terrible.We received this as a gift for my daughter's second birthday. We have the Alex Toys star crayon and I thought these would be of similar quality but they were not.First, the crayons do not stay in their holders. It's a good concept if it worked but it doesn't. Once the crayons are out of their holders they break apart easily.Second, the crayons dissolve quickly. If a crayon is under water there is a plume of colored water surrounding it as it dissolves, proving how quickly these crayons dissolve.Third, the crayons barely write. They are waxy like the cheap crayons that are given with the kids' menu at restaurants.This, while not perfect, is a much better option:Alex Toys Star Crayon In The Tub

I was wondering why my platic case had scotch tape on it. When I opened it, I noticed it was holding the lid to the case and the plastic hindges were so fragile that it was broken but they shipped it anyways. I payed three times what I would pay at Walmart and Target, all I wanted was good quality because the reviews were pretty good. This product is cheap inside and out and worst of all, OVER PRICED.

I am amazed at how much this allows me to download! I thought I would only be able to download designs from the Brother website, but I was WRONG! You can get designs from almost any embroidery site with this!!! I love it! I've done so much with it, that it's basically paid for itself! I definitely suggest the investment!

This was my first attempt at using (or buying!) a glue gun. Based upon the reviews that it doesn't drip and all the other issues that the cheaper brands seem to have, I opted to pay a little more and get this one. How simple and FUN! No dripping whatsoever, even distribution. Made me want to find other projects to use it on. Would definitely purchase this again!

If you are tired of counting stitches and using a mag-glass to see your work then a printed pattern is just for you. It is also the prefect project to take on a trip. This design is lovely and practical too. You can follow the color & design pattern or create your own. It is also a great teaching tool. I will gladly suggest the Kitty Pillowcase to anyone. It is colorful,cute and simple to do.

Well I am removing my 5 star review of 5 years ago...I just can't take it any more with this machine.I am an advanced seamtress - I have been sewing for 45 years and have made many garments, draperies, etc. all for personal use. I have not ever had alot of money to spend on a sewing machine - I had nice Singers back in the 60's - 70's then a low end White (mechanical machine) which was good too. This is the cheapest machine I have ever owned and it was not worth it. I am a very mechanical person and I cannot tell you how many times I have taken apart the whole bobbin assembly on this stupid machine. The tension is crazy. This halloween I made two costumes (an adult sized Harry Potter robe reversable, and an adult Jedi knight tunic) - I chose woven fabrics - mid weight linens because I thought the machine could handle it best. While sewing something fell on the foot pedal and the machine started sewing off the fabric - the door of the bobbin case flew off and the bobbin case got twisted and misaligned...took 20 min to fix which I didn't have. I Managed to get through the second costume but the tension was so bad. I was making flat felled seams because linen can ravel and I wanted it to be pretty on both sides. NOT! Somone once said in a sewing machine review that nothing can mess up your blood pressure like tension problems. I agree. This machine made every project take 25% more time because of messing with tension and bobbin issues. That is not fun. I am sorry I have contributed to this machine being rated so high. All the features are totally cool but the quality is just not there...BTW this is my first negative review...

Lion Brand Jiffy is a soft bulky yarn a little heavier than sports yarn.I enjoy making afghans from Jiffy yarn because they are warm and cozy. The colors are true and the finished products are very pretty. A crachet hook size H, I or J works well with this yarn.

I've been a seamstress for 40 years but I cannot get this machine to do anything but sew straight stitches, no matter how many times I read the instructions. I guess it was not a reconditioning it got at the factory. Now I have to figure out what to do about it.

I like that you can sew it on rather than iron. the edges haven't frayed, and seem like they will hold up.they also feel soft so that if they must be in place where skin can't be avoided... they don't seem to be irritating our babies skin. if you have a hobby lobby in your town it's cheaper there.

Let me start out by saying, I am fed up with this machine.I recieved this machine as a gift from my mother nearly 6 years ago. I began sewing with it about 4 months after I recieved it, and stopped sewing with it after I became frustrated with thread jams and tension problems. I wound up putting the machine in the attic for about 4 years after getting so fed up one day. However, to the machine's credit I was a total novice sewer with no experience or lessons.Fast forward to a few months ago, and I decided as a newly stay at home mom that I would start sewing again. I got the machine out, and decided to pay $99 to have it serviced, cleaned, tension adjusted, etc. I had a feeling the majority of my problems were user error. I signed up for sewing lessons with a woman who has been sewing for 40 years. After 4 lessons with her (she is fantastic) I realized how many careless errors I was making (not stopping the needle in the correct position, forgetting to put down the presser foot when I started sewing, etc). I actually got through a pair of pajama pants, but there were a few hiccups with the machine along the way (a thread jam). A few times my instructor had to switch places with me to prevent it from being tempremental.I decided to take on making a little flag banner for Christmas, which required sewing a few layers (two layers of cotton, interfacing, trim, and twill tape). My machine HATED it. Halfway through the project, I noticed my top thread tension was completely off. I tried to play with it to correct it, but NOPE, never went back to normal. I rethreaded the machine, changed the needle, and did everything you are supposed to do to try and correct tension. I wound up taking it in to the shop who thankfully did not charge me for correcting the tension. This was less than a week ago.during the week, I finished my flag banner with no problem (the machine sounded different after it was serviced). I also sewed a cotton shirt. I sat down today to sew something with a cotton gauze and what do you know? The tension is completely off again! It's almost as if it sits, and the tension falls out of sync. I am convinced that now I have corrected all the "known" user errors I was commiting, it has to be this damn machine. I called the shop & they said they dont know why this machine is acting this way. I will be leaving my home shortly to drop it off again and have them look at it.To sum it up, I think this machine is, like everyone else is saying, exactly what you pay for. You pay bargain prices, you get a cheap bargain machine. This machine has horrible tension problems, and I agree with the other reviews when I think it risks beginner sewers just throwing in the towel. I know sewing is NOT supposed to be this frustrating or difficult. Thankfully I will be getting a new machine for Christmas.Here is a list of problems I have experienced:- Stiching in reverse on this machine is a PAIN! It is the worst. I have trouble every time I have to reverse stich to secure a seam.- Thread jams happen on this one. The machine has a tendancy to want to sew in the same place which causes jams. Sometimes jams are caused because of careless errors, which should be mentioned.- Tension has been my biggest form of frustration on this machine. The machine falls out of tension for no apparent reason at all. My veteran instructor says she rarely has to adjust tension, however I'm having to correct it on every project with this machine.- It will not sew through thick layers easily, if at all. You can forget jeans, drapes, inserting trim and so on.- The pedal is finky. You have to work really hard to find the sweet spot. Sometimes when I start sewing, it immediately goes 90 miles an hour. There is no "easing on the pedal" right out of the shoot, it takes a lot of practice.- It gets hot pretty easily. I was suprised how hot the machine felt after my sewing lesson.Avoid this machine, and do more research on a better fit! Ask your sewing store what models/brands are serviced most. They want to make a sale, so they'll probably tell you with some questioning. Thankfully I have the funds to get a Bernina (the cadillac of sewing machines). So I'll be reviewing that one after Christmas.

I got the white reflective stickers, and they are bright, but they aren't "stickons," as in individual pieces. It's a long line of tape, and you can cut them into pieces or smaller, but it's messy and hard to do, the stickers stick to the scissors or fall on the floor. Also, the adhesive was weak and it took a lot of effort to get them to stick. I wouldn't buy them again.

This machine has directions that are difficult to understand and poor illustrations. It is difficult to put the bobbin in (it goes in sideways). The thread comes out of the needle easily. The guide lines on the metal plate are not labeled with measurement so I had to do it myself with a sharpie.

Just dreadful. If you want to make you and your child cry, this is a good purchase. Nothing works properly. It is almost impossible to get the plastic protector back around without moving the thread.

The Case is a big cheap plastic case that will fit almost any size sewing machine because it is NOT unique to any brand. I do not know why they even call it a Brother case.I bought it for my Brother 2600i since it does not come with one. The 2600i rattles around in there...I have to put old fabric in there to position and cushion it. The sewing machine still floats to one side making it awkward to carry since it is side heavy.Overall- it is a Hard Case to store your sewing machine. The inside plastic Cards that are suppose to cover the latch rivets fall out and are useless.I have not seen anything better on Amazon so I am keeping it... but it is nothing t get excited about.If Brother actually came out with a custom case that held my sewing machine - like the SC6000 does (which comes with it fro free) I would leave this case in a minute. I should have just bought that sewing machine for that reason alone!

I too have been looking for this product for years. It was just amazing the way it would make my silk plants shine, and the shine would last for months. Please, please bring this product back!

I bought these to use for placing over some of my drawings to give them special effects - like using the light blue to give the impression the scene was under water. These have a shiny side and a duller side, so they were perfect for my needs.

THE IMAGE LOOKS LIKE A NORMAL SIZED CUTTER. WHEN IT ARRIVED (2 DAYS LATER THEN EXPECTED, IT WAS LESS THEN 1/2 THE SIZE OF A NORMAL GIFT WRAP STAND. AT $50 I EXPECTED SOMETHING NORMAL NOT A TOY. STEER CLEAR

You never know what kind of emergency could arise or what you will need!! I searched and searched for the ultimate First Aid Kit, but could not locate one that had everything I wanted in it. I ended up buying a smaller $25+ version that had a LOT of smaller, individually wrapped items and then researched about 10 on the market that I liked parts of and printed out their contents. I went line by line and crossed out what I did not want in mine and highlighted what I did want. I bought a very large, plastic tool box to store it all in and now I am ready for BEAR! The entire "personalized" kit is NOT cheap, but it is customized with anything and everything but the kitchen sink. If you use coupons (Bed Bath & Beyond) and gift cards, etc., you can save some money when building the kit and - VERY IMPORTANT - if you have a flex spending account, MANY - if not most - of these first aid items are reimbursable with FLEX SPENDING DOLLARS!!!

it works really well, super easy to use, and it cuts so quickly. the shape also feels good on your hands when cutting a lot of fabrics.

I love these Corners! They are bigger than regular photo corners, and perfectly clear. Since they are archival quality, I am using them to mount commemorative stamp sheets onto album pages. Modern commeratives come in big, pretty sheets, and giant Showgard mounts for stamps are expensive. I put the Corners onto the bottom 2 corners of the stamp sheet first, and then carefully press it into place on the page. Slide the page inside an archival page protector, put in a 3-ring binder... beautiful! I've even used a single Framers Corner to hold a single stamp onto a page. No adhesive touches the stamp, and the stamp sits in there snugly under the page protector. And they're inexpensive enough, that if I want to re-arrange the page, I can re-do it without guilt of wasting them. There's probably a zillion uses for these things. :)

I love this paint. It not only is bright and colorful, but it is washable! The real kind of washable too! I've tried many different paints and this by far is the best. My toddler loves the choice of colors. The plastic bottles are perfect too. They have lasted a long while.

I used my punch for the third time -- and the moving handle literally broke in my hands. I was not using a death grip; indeed, I have rather small hands without a strong grip. The handle broke off and is irreparable. Oy.

I am very unhappy with the needles I received. They are in no way "smooth." Granted I have only used the size 1 and 2 so far for socks. However, I am having to knit so loosely to be able to slid the yarn across the needles that I fear my socks are going to be too big. Also one of the needle points appears to have a split in it because it keeps getting caught on the yarn. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone. I do have to agree that they are good for the price. But it is also true that you get what you pay for.

The yarn is beautiful and exactly as described online. It arrived much sooner than I'd expected.

Purchased to take some of the pain out of cutting squares for the baby rags quilts that I make. Very pleased.

For such a small item, it's a little over priced but it is sure handy when trying to quickly write out a new chord for your music. I've used it often and just keep it in my music gear bag inside a small plastic baggie for quick access.

I was concerned that this might not be a well constructed piece of equipment due to it's modest price, but was I ever wrong! This is an excellent and well-made item that works perfectly and at it's price, you can't ask for more. I'd recommend it to anyone with no hesitation!

Picked these up at the local chain fabric store after the cheaper curved needles I had broke. I really could only used the smallest needle for stitching the back to the chair I was recovering. I broke after sewing about a foot of fabric. I wasn't even using thick upholstery fabric. Super frustrating. Now I need another set of needles. I'm going to look for stronger ones and hope that one day I can finish this chair without buying new needles every foot.

What can I say? I love this product! We used to use this in a costume shop I worked in, so when I costume designed another show, I had to have it. The show took place in the 1880s, and I ended up making about 35 vests for men and a few women. I was SO glad I had this to cut the TONS AND TONS of button holes we made. It was so much easier than trying to do it with a pair of scissors or a seam ripper.

The product is in excellent condition and does everything described. I set it to exactly my shape and size so when I sew I can fit the dress on the form and know what needs to be done by looking at the form. You can adjust the bust, the waist, the buttocks. You can even adjust how long your waist is so. Every one is not shaped the same and this form has been adjusted to me. So I no longer tear up outfits and start all over.

It takes a bit of understanding of how to set it up, as it does not come with instructions. I referred back to the picture here on Amazon on how it should be set up.The easel is well crafted. I was not expecting this good of quality. The wood is very well pieced together. I recommend that if it does come apart accidentally to use some wood glue. I did notice that the manufacturer did not use glue, or if they did, it is not much.I highly recommend this piece to painters. I am a novice, but this is the best crafted canvas stand I have seen yet, and I am very excited to use it.For the canvas' that have canvas stretched around four boards with the staples on the back side, you can put the canvas on the top piece of wood (the one that is like two inches by two inches). This gives the painter the room he needs to paint the edges, and they will not get ruined, as the canvas is suspended from the holding dock.This is just wonderful. I can only keep telling everyone that this is a very well made painters stand.Sit down, relax, have a cup of tea, put on some Mozart, and begin.
