That's what it says about these brushes on the package, and it's all true, assuming the E is silent. A set of (5) nylon artist's brushes, #s 1, 3, 5, 9 & 11, on wooden handles 11" to 13" long, all packed on top of an extremely thin 16" x 8" wooden palette. The price is nice. So are the brushes.

Also lignin-free, which means museum-quality backers for photo mounting, silhouettes, lightweight mats or other scrapbook applications. Our (25) sheets of 8-1/2 x 11", 24-lb black paper translates to $15 a ream, which translates to bargain city. From Wausau Papers® and no, we don't know what the "Astronights" name is about. But we think it might have something to do with preteen girls drawing stars and initials on these sheets with white or neon-pastel gel pens.

They call it the "Krazy Cutter" and it's going to make your life a whole bunch easier. It's a little 2-3/8" long x 3/16" thick teardrop-shaped paper slicer with a teensy rust- and dullness-proof ceramic blade that magically cuts through paper and plastic. Perfect for clipping newsprint, cutting wrapping paper, and opening deviously sealed packaging, including the heavy stuff if you press a bit. Even CD cases. The krazy part? Won't cut your fingers or anything else. You could run it right over your hand, press down and everything, and nothing. Really. We tried it on some expendable employees. You know what this means? You can take it on airplanes, which further means that when you get to the coast you'll actually be able to open all the packages full of the stuff you sent ahead.

From Fiskars®, this block-letter, upper-case alphabet (plus numbers 0-9, comma, exclamation point & ampersand) is a heavy-duty set, made to use with their Shapecutter" tool and a cutting mat, but it will work just as well with a pencil, marker or razor knife. The templates are on (3) 8-1/2" x 11" heavy plastic sheets with binder holes, and the letterforms are 1-1/2" tall. They'll stand up to heavy classroom or craft use, but we're going to use ours to make a bunch of self-adhesive apostrophes to carry around and fix all those sub-literate "Mens Room" signs we keep seeing.

Frankly, we don't need no patches or badges, stinkin' or otherwise. But you do. Because you have patch-mad progeny. Someday they'll get over it, but meanwhile, here are a whole big bunch of staggeringly inexpensive iron-on and self-adhesive embroidered fabric badges and patches. The large ones range from 1-1/2" x 2" up to a 2" x 4" oval in dinosaur and sports themes. The small ones are for small-fry, but are an excellent quality and very workable for scrapbooking moms. All about 1" or 2", they feature tiny houses, cars, cows, clouds, stars, that sort of thing. Very, very assorted.

You'll remember these wooden guys-they're from before plastic. And electricity. Push the big button on the bottom of one of these articulated figures and it flops over in a heap; let go and it stands up proud. We've got a set with a red dog, a black cat and a particularly appealing reindeer. They'd make great props for telling stories to kids, and they'd be the soul of whimsical hip lined up in a row on the mantel. All approx 4-1/2" to a bit over 5" tall. Our each is a set of (3) different.
