Lo-Tech Clip Art
Before there was clip art, there were stencils. Will the art of stenciling survive the challenge of technology? It will if you help, my friend. These are sheets of thick paper with a number of complex and very cool stencils, including birds, fish, unicorns, flowers, dragons, a Happy Birthday logo, cars, and more. A total of (16) stencils (average size 2" x 3" ) come in an envelope, since it's just paper (albeit thick paper) and won't last forever, we'll send two sets.

Who Needs A License?
Buy a bucket of these nicely finished 1/2" to 5/8" dia wooden beads with 1/8" to 1/4" holes, and you're halfway to being a cabdriver. These are just right for weaving into the beaded seat cushions in every big-city cab. There are two sizes of round beads in a natural color, and barrel-shaped in-between sized beads in dark brown. We're not going to count each one, but we know there are about 150 beads in each 1/4 lb bag. If you drive too well to qualify as a cabdriver, string the beads on elastic for great bracelets.

Rub-Ons
Detailed dry-transfer rub-ons have an appliqued look, thanks to the "stitch lines" around the edges. Each card, and you'll get (6) of them, has (7) designs with a school theme - an apple, books, pencil, ABC slate, hearts and stars - and comes with a rubbing stick. They'll stick to paper, wood, plastic, metal, glass and other surfaces, so they can decorate boxes, books, exceptional essays and more.

Rainbow Glasses
Neon strip cardboard spectacles with diffraction gratings as the lenses. You can see the regular world, but all light sources and bright objects appear in multiple rainbow hued images. The effect is a little as though the whole world were a giant hologram. Great stocking stuffer or birthday party item for grade school ages.

Jacob's Ladder
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
It's nice to know that some things don't change. One is the Jacob's Ladder. Still made with (6) slabs of wood, each about 2" x 2" x 1/2", each a bright combination of colors, and all connected by a contrasting ribbon. Hold one end up and let the string of slabs dangle. When you flop the top block end for end, each lower slab in turn will flop end for end. Fascinating. Particularly if you are about 5 to 9 years old.

Moving Sand Art
Black and white sand in a viscous colored fluid. The sand and fluid are between 5-1/2" wide x 3-1/2" high panes of glass, framed on a gimbaled stand. Flip the panel and watch the sand swirl and eddy into endlessly new pictures of dunes, drifts, mountains or moonscapes, depending on your imagination and the pattern they form. The mix of black and white creates a definite third dimension to the images. They come in assorted colored plastic frames (our choice) and are pretty neat, as these things go.

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).

String 'Em Up
One sheet of (4) punch-outs doesn't an exciting mobile make -- but balancing (16) of these cloud-shaped cardboard pieces, which is what you get, is another story. 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.

Puzzling
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
One of our favorite games at A.S.&S. is "Guess Why This Is Surplus." In this case you get (3) different animal erasers, each a 4-part puzzle. The assorted 2" animals are bright colors, erase well, and fit together snugly. Our best guess? Maybe their oversized faces looked too goofy. Maybe animal activists protested rubbing their noses in everyone else's mistakes. Or maybe they just manufactured a gazillion too many. Sometimes it's hard to tell.

Back To Basics
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
It could have been called an Alabama Buzzer after Alabama Vest, the man who invented it. Or a Clegghorn, after Thaddeus Von Clegg, the clock master who fabricated the first one. But the hand-crafted 4-3/4" long steel instrument was a simple amusement, and the 1840s were a simple time. So it's simply a kazoo.
