The subjects of these (7) Grumbacher Library how-to-do-it books range from painting cityscapes to drawing the human figure, with stops at cats, crafts and the Wild West, and a preponderance of "Painting Children." The attractive, full-color books each have (30) pages and step-by-step instructions. We'll package (2) different titles together for a paltry sum, compared to the rack price.

28771 HOW-TO-PAINT BOOKS |
Winner of this week's "What IS That?" award. It's a watch crab, also called a spanner wrench, that's designed to remove the back from watches, lenses from telescopes, and other thin, flat components from whatever they're attached to. Heavy for its size, it's 1" x 2-3/4" x 3/8" thick, with sharp 1/4" prongs projecting from the edge. The prongs move from 2" to 7/16" apart as you spin the furled nut between them. An impressive tool to flash in front of your brother-in-law. If he doesn't read our catalog, he won't have a clue!

Jars to hold your homemade crafts and goodies! The molded, 3-1/4" high clear-glass jars have 3-1/4" dia mouths. The straight-sided version sports a fruit design, the tapered version has a shell design. They have small lips and no threads, so they're candidates for paraffin seals - and they're perfect for your Great-Aunt-Fannie's boysenberry jam, your shrimp sauce, or sundry kitchen storage chores. Don't hang out in the kitchens much? Picture candles flickering through the designs. Delicious.

So why do you want this 7-piece watch battery replacement kit? Because it's economical and will pay for itself in short order? Because you're so self-sufficient you would have removed your own appendix if only the E-R physician hadn't been so territorial? Maybe just because you want to poke around inside a clockwork? Whatever the reason, you'll like the jeweler's Phillips screwdriver and knife, the spanner wrench, prying tool, dust brush and soft-plastic and needlepoint metal tweezers. They're in separate pockets in a plastic carrying case that can be rolled for storage or hung by its grommets. We know you'll like this kit, 'cuz we know what makes our customers tick.

Pick up this 1-3/4" x 7/8" x 3/8" ceramic pick-up magnet while we still have it. It's in a heavy metal housing and has a stationary metal hoop, about 1/2" i.d., on top. The manufacturer tells us the magnet will grab up to 30 lbs of metal, and while Pat wouldn't bet on anything over 20 lbs, it's still very strong. Especially if you're going to dangle it on the end of a cord to gather spilled nails or to fish your keys out of the lake/pond/sewer/drain!

Customized wall finishes in not-many hours, for not-many dollars. Layer decorative designs on painted walls with a carved 7" dia sponge. With the sponge and removable handle, the applicator is approx 3-3/4" thick, including the 3/4" deep carved design. There is a small detail sponge for filling in areas near corners and woodwork, and a video with tips on how to sponge like a pro. Sponge Prints(tm) recommends the faux finish for borders, furniture, lampshades, tablecloths and shower curtains in addition to walls. Our designs include one with stars of various sizes, and a spiraling acanthus design that if it was easy to describe wouldn't be named Classico.

Terrific glass lampshades in a straight-sided bell shape. You get (2) matching shades, our choice of a clear iridescent glass with a cut edge, a clear crackle glass, a frosted glass with a graceful blue spiral accent, or one etched with Jack Frost patterns. Each is 4" tall x 4-1/2" dia with a 1-1/2" dia mouth. While they are made to sit large-opening-up on a chandelier or wall fixture (they don't have the rolled rim they'd need to hang upside down) we see them enclosing small candles in a glittering centerpiece. Very sophisticated.
