• "Bigger than expected which is good! Beautiful round cobalt blue intertwined with white."

Cons:

• "They were too big for the project I wanted to make."

• "The product is ok except for the fact that in my case that I ordered a red it came out more as a bright orange than red which was very disappointing."
• "They are thin but looked nice. As i was looking at them i noticed they are already falling apart and we haven’t even used them yet!"
• "The look is nice but they’re very thin and cheap feeling, and they Ship folded so there’s this unfixable crease in each one that really ruins them."
