Top 5 Crafts & DIY Gifts
1) Social Knitworking Canvas Tote Bag
The Social Knitworking tote bag is the perfect gift for all knitters, crocheters, and crafters alike. The bag is made with high-quality fabric and features artwork depicting a wonderfully quirky group of sheepish knitters.
2) Mixing Mate Paint Can Lid - Quart
This can mixer and lid combo for paint, varnish, and stain cans is every DIY-er’s dream come true. The Mixing Mate mixes, pours, and stores in one reusable lid—and makes the whole process easier and neater. The paddle mixes up contents, and a trigger on the handle lets you control pours. Leave the lid on to store the can between uses, or rinse it off to move on to your next job.
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) Castle Toy Construction Set
These castle building sets bring fairy tales to life. Bricks and tiles made with ceramic and plaster look and feel real, and are held together with non-toxic glue. Pick from a smaller-scale palace or go big with a stately castle.
5) 15 ft Fold-Out Coloring Book
The Longest Coloring Book: 15 ft. Fold-Out Coloring Book - To The Moon
