Product Review: The Bedazzler

I was working on a craft project yesterday and parts of it needed to be sparkly. I had decided to sew some sequins on it in order to achieve this. However, three sequins in I realized that if I wanted this to turn out how I wanted it to, using my mediocre sewing skills was not the way to go. It was in this moment I decided to buy a Bedazzler. I know. You are all suprised that I didn't already own a Bedazzler with my love of shiny things, but it's true! I've also never really had anything to bedazzle. On my way back from downtown I stopped by the craft store and got one.

I got home and didn't immediatly bedazzle anything. I waited until 2am when I was bored and didn't have anything to watch on TV to try my hand at using the Bedazzler. The overall attempt was unseccessful, but I don't blame myself for this: I blame the epic fail that is the Bedazzler!
The Bedazzler is a big piece of plastic mess. It is horrible. First off, the little gems wouldn't stay in the holder so when I went to press the arm down to secure them, they would constantly fall out. This lead to me using it sideways and having to hold it. Then when I went to place the jewel, it didn't secure properly! I could easily remove the jewels from the fabric. This was a major disappointment for several reasons:

1. I couldn't complete my art project
2. I am back to sewing on sequins
3. My life will not be as shiny!

Overall the bedazzler is one epic fail and an immense disappointment!
