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.

They have the look of something designed for the space program. They're mylar, a paper-thin shiny metallic sheet, that comes in handy when your car breaks down in winter, or when you're separated from your climbing group on the slopes of Mt. McKinley. Barring that, they're also a perfect material for a do-it-yourself cold-climate Halloween costume-near impossible to rip by hand, but cut easily with scissors. There's no padding, so they wouldn't be too comfy on your bed, but they sure are warm. They both come folded about the size of a wallet. The Blanket is 52" x 82", the Sleeping Bag is 34" x 84".
