Perfect for kids crafts

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

These are great! It may seem small, but I think it has a good amount of gems. I bought them for my kids (mainly my 5 yr old daughter) who loves "fancy" things. I figured these would be great to have for crafts/gifts or if she just wants to add some sparkle to something. It's a good mix of color and shapes. The flat back are perfect to glue on things. I'm really happy with these.

but I'm very glad I did anyway

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2014

Verified Purchase

I was skeptical about buying these, considering the many negative reviews, but I'm very glad I did anyway. For the price and the free shipping, they're fantastic. It is true that there are two or three that have no shine, but the rest of them are quite usable. Most interesting are some that shine two colors at different angles. I'm buying a second batch, hoping they're as nice as the first.

Good product but very little amount.

Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2016

These are just what I was looking for, however, there is way less then I realized. Totally my fault, but it's hard to quantify based on weight. I don't weigh my plastic jewels on the regular. Not the best value either, splurge and get a giant bag and you'll have plastic jewels for days!

Perfect little packet of gemstones for your random craft projects. I bought as a stocking stuffer and it worked out well! Comes in an assortment of colors and shapes. All plastic with a mirror finish behind them to get it a nice shimmer. Worth the purchase!

Don't forget to read descriptions before ordering!

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2014

Verified Purchase

This wasn't what I was expecting, however, it's my own fault for not reading the entire description. They are acrylic which aren't appropriate for my use. Since this is indeed stated in the description, I'll give it three stars. If it hadn't been in the description, I would have only given it one star.

I'm sure these are great for kids craft projects or for scrapbooking. I did receive a variety of sizes and shapes. I certainly wasn't expecting them to be any bigger than the largest ones I received so I'm a bit confused on those complaining that they're too small. I can't imagine wanting them any bigger, but that's just me I guess. Many of them have small holes so they can be sewed on. I wasn't expecting this but it doesn't really matter since I can't use them anyway.

The best advice I can offer is to make sure you read the ENTIRE description of a product before purchasing it AND read the reviews if available.

Great accessory for school projects

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2013

Verified Purchase

I purchased those for my daughter's projects for at home. She/we had a chance to use them last night. I bought those in combination with little Flowers. Those are just as shown and made the project look very girlie. We even used the gemstones for the middle part of the flowers. Looked great. We will use them for many projects to come. I am extra excited because didn't have to leave the house to get them. Will buy them again.

Lackluster, not adhesive-backed

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2013

Verified Purchase

These are lackluster. The colors are not very saturated and the gems are not as sparkling clear as I would have liked. There are many different colors and shapes, if that's what you want: flowers, crosses, butterflies etc. The illustration here on Amazon makes it seem as if the shapes are more abstract and geometric, which I much prefer. I don't like the figures as much, as I find them a bit cheesy. Also, and I realize this is my fault for not reading the description carefully, these are not self-adhesive. I am putting it in my review anyway in case you are like me and mistakenly assume these are self-adhesive. The reason I made this assumption is that they showed up as "similar products" when I first search for adhesive-backed gems. I can see how they are similar in many ways, and usually Amazon's search- and recommendation-engine works well, but in this case it made me buy the wrong product.

Perfect for crafting, sorting, counting and decorating! My kids love pretending these are jewels they found and love gluing them to different crafts! There is a nice assortment of stones, a good amount of bigger ones, and some very small ones for little details. Great colors as well.
