Build Your Own Bird Nest
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!

Paint By No Numbers
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).

Bump Chenille?
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.
