Not Tempura, tempera. Color things Dark Green or Burnt Sienna (sort of dark brick red) but don't eat these 1-7/8" sq x 3/8" thick, 2 oz cakes of dry paint. From Weber-Costello, they are called "Biggie" and sell for $2.00 in the big boys' catalogs. Don't you love surplus??

We know there's a message in this 12" dia safety sign with the classic slashed circle. It's red and white on reflective, adhesive-backed vinyl, and the graphics mean "Do not put out fire with liquids." Given its limited application, we're more excited about cutting out the white sections and putting the red circle/slash over a photo of our least favorite politician. But hey, if you're on the safety committee, knock your socks off. Just make sure the sign isn't hung upside down. Then it says "Do not let fire rain into your coffee."

These mega-useful empty containers are thin-walled (.032") clear-plastic tubes, 6-3/4" long x 2-1/8" dia, with red plastic, tight-fitting endcaps. We're thinking sandwich cookies, ritzy crackers, homemade treats, candies, emergency kits, fireflies, toiletry containers, door prizes, stocking stuffers, like that.

Lots of little boxes, (42) of them, inside this 10-1/2" x 4-3/4" x 1-7/8" box. The little removable boxes are 1-1/2" square x 5/8" deep. Every box has a snap-closed lid and is translucent polypropylene, so you can find the contents, which we think ought to be beads or jewelry parts, or maybe insects or fishing flies, but you go right ahead and store whatever you feel like storing because it's a free country.
