Top 5 Crafts & DIY Gifts
1) Mini Canvas Painting Box
The Cupixel app and mini canvas painting box are designed for people of all skill levels. Within the app, choose from a gallery of professional masterpieces or use your own photos to create a work of art. The app guides you through the creative process, while you use all of the supplies included within the Mini Canvas Painting Box.
2) Iconic Structure Toy Construction Set
This scale model kit uses real materials to build a mini replica of a famous place. Step-by-step instructions lead you through the construction of an iconic structure, or you can go freestyle and create your own landmark. Bricks are made with natural materials and non-toxic glue binds it all together.
3) Paint & Finish Preservation Spray
Argon gas makes for a better approach to leftover paint storage. It keeps oil-based paints, varnishes, and stains in freshly-opened-can shape and looking like new. A spray of argon gas creates a barrier between the liquid and the air inside an open can. This prevents the finish from curing, yellowing, or skinning-over. Argon is non-toxic, non-flammable, and inert, so it won’t react to other chemicals.
4) School Years Keepsake Organizer
This display-worthy keepsake container will corral all of the report cards, notes, art work, and endless other bits and pieces that come with school-age kids. There is a place for it all in this thoughtfully designed, cloth-covered storage system. Acid-free folders keep precious mementos protected, and detailed labels will help you easily sort—and later locate—them.
5) 36" Picture Hanging Tool
Easily hang pictures, mirrors, towel bars, wine racks, or flat screen TVs perfectly straight and level in two minutes.
