I have not done the Chinese Takeout set, but I think it is fairly hard to do (hard to do perfectly, which is what it will take to get paid). I would recommend starting with something more simple (like a calendar kit) and getting the hang of Tiny Details and how they operate that way.

My experience has been that they are legitimate, but somewhat frustrating to work with. It takes weeks to get your kit after you order it, then weeks again if you need to order more supplies. If you get approved after you send in your sample, your kit may not be accepted once you finish it and send it in. They will send it back to you for corrections.

This is where having a more simple project becomes important. When you get the kit back and it's a simple project, they may have just one or two things for you to fix (you may need to order more supplies again because they don't send more when they send back the kit = weeks again of waiting). If you have a more complex kit like the Chinese Takeout kit, there could be many areas where your project needs correction and essentially you could end up having to start all over instead of just having a few tweaks here and there.

Working on Tiny Details projects is fun. It just takes a lot of patience to deal with the company itself.
