Ancient Chinese secret for assembling dolls (and they ought to know, given the number of dolls assembled in China): Googly eyes that kids will laugh at are good. Googly eyes kids can pick off and swallow are not good. These 7/16" dia white-plastic eyes with loose 1/8" dia pupils have 1/2" x 1/8" dia striated shafts. Lock washers fit snugly onto the shafts so they stay safely where they belong. We'll send you (6) packs of (6) eyes each - enough for (18) teddy bears or (36) stuffed cyclops dolls.

Favorites of crafters and decorators - abaca (Manila hemp), stripped from the leafstalk of a banana, and the lighter, wider raffia, from the (what a surprise!) raffia palm. Each hank is a good-sized handful, but unwinds to yards and yards and yards of fiber. These are grade-2 quality, but perfectly fine for crafty uses. A bow. A miniature broom. A bird nest. A doll wig? Only if she's having the world's worst hair day!

33922 RAFFIA, 3.5 OZ |
If these were balloons, there'd be some guy in a clown suit making them into little animals -- but they're chenille (that's au courant for "pipe cleaners"). Our each is a pack of (12) 12" stems, either all red or all yellow (our choice). Their 5 mm diameter fattens to 15 mm every few inches, so if you insist on making an animal, we'd suggest a snake that just finished a four-course meal.

We have 1/8" plywood cut into shapes up to 8-3/4" tall that were supposed to sell as picture frames. Well, of course they didn't sell. Each is a crafty design with suggested details (and with an almost-die-cut center punch-out) better suited to be a Christmas ornament, Easter decoration, etc. So far we've seen a teddy bear, duck, bunny rabbit, cat, unicorn and Christmas tree. You bring a little sandpaper, paint and imagination, plus a few simple tools, and you'll dazzle everyone with your talent. You'll get at least (2) different designs in your pack of (3).

A receptacle for bad hair day thoughts, office supervisor's observations on your work, and your mother-in-law on the third day of her visit. It is clear vinyl, 8" x 13", punched for a 2-ring binder and has (8) pockets each sized to hold a 6" strip of 35 mm film negative. This last attribute will be as exciting to the few A.S.&S. devotees who do not have vivid imaginations as it was to the folks at 3M who made the product and thought that was it's only use. Our "each" totals (10) pages with space to hold a grand total of 320 negatives exposures. Is a negative exposure a coverup??

24517 NEGATIVE HOLD., 35MM |
This plastic fashion doll (7" long OA) is missing almost everything from the waist down, but her top half is definitely there. She has movable arms, wide eyes and a cloud of wavy nylon hair held back by a ribbon headband. That's as close as she comes to wearing clothes, so you can dress her up -- then poke the 2-1/2" plastic stake that replaces her legs into a skirt-shaped cake for little girls' birthday parties or big boys' bachelor parties.

Each 2-sided piece approx 4" x 4" is covered with funky sketches of winged animals -- polar bears, moose, seals and rabbits. Mostly medium blue and white. No wire or string included. Lots of potential included.
