    It seems nonsensical that these are under ten dollars each, and the nearest equivalent here is over £25!
    I was looking at the textured hammers too, but decided against them until I've got some experience under my belt. I would like to get some stamps in future, so that I can incorporate them into my designs, or use them as a 'signature' to my work.

    It would be great if Cookies could come up with something of their usual high quality, but at a lower price?

    Lovely pendants Su.

    I probably wouldn't buy a textured hammer, but the punches look brilliant.
    Jane,

    I bought a texturing hammer from Cookies earlier this year - I think it had stripes on one side and squares on the other. I've been ok ith it, but prefer to make stripes with a hammer. On the other hand I love design stamps/punches and have a couple bought from US (Etsy). I would love to see more of these at an affordable price.

    I'm hoping for world peace but I'd also like something shiny as well...

    I probably wouldn't buy the hammers either. I like to do my own texturing.

    Lisa at Beaducation uses the cheapest postage that she can and if you wait for discount codes to become available you can get up 10% discount. In addition to this she has tutorials on her website to show the best way to use the stamps. I looked at the Cookies ones but they were so expensive it was cheaper to buy them from the States.
