Top 5 Crafts & DIY Gifts
1) Tie Down Straps - Set of Two
Tackle many jobs—from the simple to the tough—with a heavy duty tie down strap built to handle up to 110 pounds of wrapping and securing. There are different lengths to suit your task, and the quick-grab end lets you connect multiple straps. Industrial-grade webbing is durable and flexible (and made in part from recycled plastic bottles) and hook and loop fasteners let you tie down and secure your stuff in one easy step.
2) Brush Lettering Calligraphy Workbook
Try your hand at brush lettering with a calligraphy workbook. From a foundation of doing basic strokes on tracing paper, learn lowercase and uppercase letters before finally connecting them. Pick a traditional or modern lettering style to learn.
