Some few are closed on one end, like pants zippers, but most are closed at both ends, like the zippers on seat cushions. These richly colored plastic zippers in synthetic cloth, 21" x 1-1/4", might be sewn into pillows or into slinky, hip-hugging dresses. We have pink, black, maroon, navy, midnight, green, and ivory colored zippers-we'll give you two of our favorite colors in every pair you buy.

This water–reducible acrylic–based paint sticks to most surfaces and glows in the dark after only a brief exposure to bright ambient light. We have a 2 oz bottle of yellow/green that will glow for up to 20 hours. This works great for Halloween costumes and hobby applications, and glows like crazy under blacklight. And without a single radionuclide! Amazing!

A mini rainbow of vinyl tape. But it is an assortment. Blue and white are each 3/4" wide x 108 ft long. on a 1-1/2" dia core. Kind of like super strong cellophane tape. If you can't find it here, you don't need it. None of it is UL Listed so we can't recommend electrical use.

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.

“Men’s Room.” “Exit.” “Never put off until tomorrow what you can put off until the week after next.” Craft an artful message on one of these good–looking 3/8” to 1/2” thick pressboard plaques with beveled edges. (Exception: The 3” x 5–1/2” is unfinished 1/4” plywood, for a more casual look.) All are light–colored, all have a couple of 3/8” dia holes near the top. For a nice down–home country look, hang your plaque by the 20” to 35” lengths of twine threaded through the holes. For a classy look, apply a faux metal finish, drill (2) more holes, and mount it with brass screws. Perfect for whatever message you want to send.

And lots of ‘em. These coated paper trays are microwave-safe. In fact, they’re very much like the ones used for some commercial frozen entrees, but we draw the line at claiming they’re food-ready or food-safe. At these prices, though, they’d make great lab trays, paint palettes or craft containers for schools—or any place else you need a lot of tough little disposable trays. They measure 8” x 6-3/8” x 1-3/16” deep and are off-white inside, bright orange/red on the outside.
