Threadart SS10 (3mm) Amethyst Hot Fix Rhinestones 10 Gross (1440/pkg) Hotfix - Iron on - Hot Fix

Great product.

Rhinestones are nice and sparkly, but I have learned that one must be very careful about the colors. Crystal (clear) and the Jet Black seem to be fine, but other colors seem to be inconsistent in matching the picture and with other packages labeled the same color name. I needed an orange color rhinestone, and I ordered Hyacinth where the color in the picture looks orange. I ordered this color in two different sizes. What was delivered was a red and an orange. Both say "Hyacinth", but one is definitely an orange whereas the other could pass for a red. Ugh!!! The red is going back to Amazon. I've tried Fuchsia and Black Diamond as well, and they both seem to be fine too. I'm scared to try the other colors because I'm unsure of what will actually be sent to me.Update 3/3/2016: I've ordered and used what has seems like many of these rhinestone over the past couple of years. The Crystal (clear color) seems to be the most consistent....always sparkly and the hotfix glue on the back doesn't seem to ever fall off and the rhinestones stay on really well. For the other colors (Fuchsia and Black Diamond especially), many of the hotfix glue backings have fallen off in the package which then makes the stones unusable. And for the rhinestones in the same packaging, I've noticed that they do not stay on as well or as long as some of the other colors (especially compared to Crystal) and tend to fall off even with careful hand washing the apparel/material.

If you are expecting Swarovski quality, these aren't for you, but then, they don't cost as much. I found them perfect for my project - a Mardi Gras t-shirt.These are made in China. Size is very uniform compared to other cheap crystals, better sparkle than some I have used that were more expensive, hotfix glue seems to work well. I haven't washed the item yet, but the glue melted at exactly the same temperature as the Swarovski crystals. In contrast to some of the other cheap crystals, these didn't have crystals in the bag that were wasted because hotfix material had fallen off.I do not know how well these would work if using the small Bedazzler tool or with an iron because I use a heat press. In my experience, the cheaper crystals have hotfix material that often takes longer to adhere even with a heat press and require multiple pressings. The fact that these worked so well at the same temp in my heat press as the Swarovski (325 degrees) means the adhesive works better than other cheaper crystals I have used.The item used for my projects is 100% cotton t-shirt. I don't know about other fabrics.I'll order again.

I bought these not knowing what to expect. These are such a great quality! I got them in several colors. Each color is beautiful! They ar super easy to use. You get the transfer tape and cut out the sticky flock and just iron them on. ( you can hand place them as well. You don't need to have the transfer tape and the sticky flock. I cut my patterns out on the silhouette Again, not needed. It is so much fun to bling everything up. They get ironed on and I let them "cure" for 24 hours. I don't know that you would need to but the heat transfer vinyl I use you let cure so I do and I have not to this point had any problems. I washed without turning inside out because I know people have the best intentions but it doesn't always happen and they wash up beautifully!!

I have used thousands of the expensive Hot Fix crystals from Michaels; these don't appear to be quite as brilliant and the glue on the back isn't quite perfectly applied as the Swarovski's, but once you are in the spot light, these do the trick just fine. At a fraction of the price, the slight quality loss is worth the savings. Same crystals in a 25 pack are $9.99 regular price at Michaels. Sometimes you can get them for $5. Even at $5 for 25, that makes the equivalent cost at Michaels of about $57!!! Trust me on this one, get 2 packs, these are pretty large & you will go through them quickly. I found that the larger crystals like this are better for stage/spot light. The smaller crystals may be good for understated sparkle, but larger really blings in the spotlight.

The glue held fast to spandex. I haven't washed the garmet yet and I expect to hand wash it anyway. Hoping it lasts through that. I used them on goggles and shoes and they didn't hold well. I expect next time I'll use some sandpaper to buff the surface if I'm doing plastic or leather again. Also the shoes were exposed to harsh environments so probably not fair to judge them by that project. Very pretty color and true to the picture show

Beautiful. When these arrived I immediately added a row on each shoulder of a new t shirt of my daughter's. She has now worn it more than a dozen times. I have not treated it as a delicate in any way. Every gem placed on the actual fabric of the shirt is still firmly in place. They look as bright and shiny as they did the first day. Three of the 6 gems that I put on top of the silk screen picture fell off after a couple washings.

This one was hard to rate... I love my hotfix crystals...however, I ordered the 2mm size and received the 3mm size.... I can use them as well.... so I didn't say anything... but, I really would have like them to be the correct size.... other than that...these crystals ROCK!! Have made many different things with them....and they are loved all the way around!!! Thank you....

These rhinestones a not a true ss10 I compared them to other ss10 I have that fit into templates perfectly and these ones are Much smaller. Disappointed. Won't by again
