Top 5 Crafts & DIY Gifts
1) Intermediate Wooden Model Building Kit
UGEARS intermediate model kits make building a fun and engaging hands-on experience. These kits are geared towards older kids and adults looking for a more complex project. Each model is pieced together from flat, unfinished, laser-cut plywood parts that don’t need tools or glue to be assembled. The finished product has parts that move, too, to put these models in motion.
2) 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.
3) Make-Your-Own BBQ Sauce Kit
A tasty DIY moment from a make-your-own BBQ sauce kit. It packs everything you need, from gloves to ingredients to bottles, into one kit that can make three bottles-worth of sweet, tangy, or spicy sauce. Stick to the step-by-step instructions or you can flex those creative muscles and try your own recipe. Pick up a few fresh ingredients and you're ready to get cooking. Made in the USA.
4) Moldable Rubber Mini Packs
Designed for creative fixing and DIY projects, the versatile and mess-free material is ideal for repairing and improving items around your home. The soft-touch silicone rubber molds and sets permanently. Sticks to aluminum, steel, ceramic, glass, wood, and some fabrics and plastics.
