Creativity Kits

We have a range of craft kits suitable for children and adults that make a unique and creative gift. All kits are packed in the shop and we ensure that each is generously filled with all that you need to make a mirror, treasure chest, picture frame, mask, finger puppets, decorative magnets, friendship bracelets or fabric heart.

Decopatch

 

Decopatch is a range of modern decoupage papers for applying to almost any surface using Decopatch glue, which also acts as a varnish. Objects can be covered in a single design, or collaged with a combination of different papers. Accents can be added afterwards with paint, stick-on jewels or sequins. Decopatch is ideal for decorating our range of papier mache and wooden boxes and shapes.

Painting on Glass and China

For painting on glass we stock ranges of spirit and water-based glass paints by both Marabu (DecorGlas and GlasArt) and Pebeo (Vitrea and Vitrail). We stock Pebeo glass painting pens, plus 3D outliners and cerne relief. We also have a selection of starter kits that contain small quantities of several colours, making them ideal as gifts.

We stock Marabu Fun and Fancy and Pebeo Arti Stick, two ranges of peelable glass paints. Designs can be created on acetate and then removed to stick onto windows or any smooth surface. They are fully removable. You can trace a design or create you own by drawing freehand with the outliner.

For painting on glazed china we stock Pebeo Porcelaine 150, a water-based paint which is dishwasher-safe after baking in a domestic oven. We also stock Pebeo Porcelaine pens and a new range of ceramic pens by Marabu that are dishwasher safe without the need for baking, making them ideal for children's parties.
