Hilarious! 5 out of 5 stars.
7 of 7 people found this review helpful.

My husband and I ran across this book when a friend bought it as a birthday gift for his brother (in his late 20s). We read through it and loved it! It has so many different ideas that are terribly immature, but why do we all need to grow up? Life needs to be fun.

We decided to buy it for our nephew who is turning 16. He'll get a kick out of it and have fun doing a bunch of the ideas in the book. I'm sure my husband will get him started and make sure he does a few things right away.

This is a great gift for anyone who is young and heart and has a great sense of humor! I'm also thinking about getting it for my brother on his next birthday (he'll be 34), but I'm not sure he needs it since he is immature enough.

I would have to say that this gift is best for the boys, but some girls might like it, too. I think it is funny, but not nearly as much as my husband. The girlfriend of our friend's brother hated the book, but she didn't have much of a sense of humor.

This book is awesome. I never have been able to fold paper airplanes before that actually flew. With this book, it is so easy and they really fly. I now buy this book for my girls to give as birthday presents. Awesome find.

The BEST Paper Airplane Book 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I am a Science teacher I designed a Science Camp for the school district I work for. One of the days was devoted to the science of flight and we used paper airplanes as models. Originally, I had purchased 4 different paper airplane books (including this one). But, when the time came around and it was 'Paper Airplane Day' during our camp, this was the book I used.

The other books were ok, but many of the planes seemed to be very complex to make, many also involving irregular sizes of paper. I also try to keep my Science lessons simple - I wanted something the students could take home and start making right away. Not only did the Klutz book offer great, easy to make airplanes, but it also contained easy to understand explanations of the principles of flight (as well as some group games to play with paper airplanes.

I HIGHLY recommend this book and I give it a solid teacher endorsement!

I Spy A Winner! 5 out of 5 stars.
5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

The I Spy Spooky Night book is one of many 'I Spy' books our family has enjoyed. We have the 'I Spy Extreme Challenger!',
'I Spy Super Challenger', 'I Spy School Days', 'I Spy Treasure Hunt' and the 'I Spy Mystery' book just to name a few of them. They will entertain no matter what your age. Our children and now our grandchildren have pulled these books out many times. They are like magnets and will draw in whoever is around to your side to help find the hidden I Spy items. Here's a hint. If, no - when, you have trouble finding any of the objects turn the book upside down and that just might help. The I Spy Spooky Night Book in combination with the Boo-opoly Game will provide some frighteningly good Halloween entertainment. ~ Mrs. B.

Editorial Review:

From its rickety gate to its cobwebbed attic, this haunted house contains 13 spooky environments. Readers will marvel at Walter Wick's beautifully executed photographs as they travel through each enchanting scene and solve the rhyming riddles, reading the story along the way. Over two million "I Spy" books have been sold to date.

Delight for young girl 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

We bought this for our 10 year old granddaughter and she was delighted with the kit. It's simple to use, everything is included and it gave hours of fashion fun for a young girl. These kits as a whole are very appealing to preteen girls.

Great for Cards! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I highly reccomend this item! I am a paper crafter, and I love using these paper fashions to make quick stylish cards. I love this item because unlike some paper fashion books, it offers paper and templates, not precut paper or stickers. This is a great product for scrapbookers and cardmakers, and for all girls big and small. Also, there are miniature hangers included that add an extra touch to my cards, and I even hung ties on them to make a father's day card.

Editorial Review:

Turn colorful paper, ribbons and beads into glamorous fashion and accessories. All designs are completely customizable and the provided stencils will have you creating boutiques-full of outfits for shopping in the city, or heading to the ball. Miniature hangers are included so you can turn your designs into fashionable stationery, bookmarks, magnets and more. Bellisima!

Great book, Wrong Age Range 5 out of 5 stars.
6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

I think the I Spy Series is Wonderful and Treasure Hunt has great pictures. My only negative is that the age range listed in Amazon is wrong, and even the 4-8 age range usually listed for this book should be a little higher, like 6-8. I have to admit that I have a hard time finding the pictures, so my 4 year old gets frustrated with this one.

I think the Picture Riddles is a great one for 4 year olds to start with.

Great Book Great scenery 5 out of 5 stars.

Friendship Bracelets Klutz Book 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is our 2nd Klutz book we have purchased. (we have the Cootie Catcher) AND WE LOVE THEM!
My daughter, age 9 is a big fan, especially on the rainy days. It will remind you of those bracelets I think we all learned to make as a kid PLUS some really different versions of them. Not a whole lot of string comes with it, so if you are giving it as a gift (which we did- her best friend, age 10), Make sure you pick up some extra string. I was able to find them at pretty much any craft store for 25 cents a color. (Not bad- eh?)
It comes with a handy clip and a measuring area on the book to make things a lot easier then when I was a kid! No more putting the string under a heavy book and working that way :o)

KLUTZ is the place to start for creativity for the beginner. Easy with step-by-step instructions. Bracelets can be created in team colors, flowers, hearts and other designs. Fun to make with a great product to wear or share at end learning process. Book to be returned to over and over for new designs and colors.

Editorial Review:

Super-clear directions for ten different kinds of bracelets, with all the colorful floss and beads you need to make all of them. A built-in clipboard provides the ideal work surface for this coolest of crafts.

best paints for the price 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I'm a preschool teacher and I've been face painting children's faces for several years now. I've tried many, many different types of face paints and this set is one of my favorites. The paints come on really bright on the children's skin and I don't have to apply too much for the color to show. They also come off the skin easily. The book also has great ideas and are simple to follow. So buy it! You won't regret it!

Red Carpet HOT!!! 5 out of 5 stars.
6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

The answer to your question is YES! You want this! You need this!! You gotta have this book right now!!!
For those of you who have the first Paper Fashions from which, there's no denying, you could get evening and wedding gowns out of, Paper Fashions Fancy is especially for all those Prom Queen nights and red carpet gala events, and let me tell you, the shoes are so much yummier in this one and there are tiara stencils!! Likewise, you can get fabulous daywear from the Fancy one too, and combining the two books-well, by the time I'm done, I'll probably need walk-in closets just for my teeny paper creations!! Endless possiblities just got more endless!!
For those of you who haven't yet discovered the delights of the original Paper Fashions, why not? Just kidding! It's not necessary to have both-just very highly recommended!!

Okay, so with this book you get;
*3 packs of sequins, beads and a sheet of sticky gems
*ribbons-5 little bundles this time, and gold thread too
*all new paper-it's brighter, printier (new word!), sparklier and includes a sheet of printed vellum and flocked paper too (like velvet)
*there's a cute little tube of pva glue and of course, 20 tiny hangers!
*there are 3 pages of soft plastic stencils that feature everything you need-new tops and skirts (that you combine to make dresses) and accessories, like Jackie O type hats, and dress trains, little evening bags and even the A-list must have, shades!
*there are clear, easy to understand instructions with diagrams, on using the stencils, scissor tips, gluing tips and plenty of examples throughout to jumpstart your own stylin' creativity!
*there are even tips about using color, patterns and creating sketch and inspiration books!

Basically, it's everything the first Paper Fashions is only even better~the artwork, the photographs, the works! The Klutz folk have really upped their game on this, and that's saying a lot, because the first one is fantastic! Extras in this one include ideas on decorating the hangers, making tiny necklaces and most importantly, a tutorial on RUFFLES!

Again, I reiterate that even though these books are aimed at female population, there's no reason any guys who like to design womenswear shouldn't get this too-you should! Some of the best womenswear designers are men!
Agewise, it's suitable for ages 8 and up, and by up, people, don't just get one for your kids or grandkids! If it sounds fun to you, go ahead and get one for yourself! I did, and I'm happy as a lark!

Editorial Review:

Introducing our Spring 2008 collection - Paper Fashions Fancy. This season it's all about glamour. We've designed a brand new set of patterned and colored papers, including some with glitter, foil, and velvety black flocking. There's a new selection of seed beads, sequins, ribbon, and more than a hundred sticky-back "jewels" for embellishing the fashions. And, of course, the tiny wire hangers are back - this time we include clever ideas for decorating those hangers to make them gown-worthy.
