Top 5 Crafts & DIY Gifts
1) Tape Measuring Tool
This tape measuring tool helps you get an accurate reading in curves, corners, and hard-to-see spots. It’s as easy to use as it is accurate—just clamp it onto a tape measure and take the guesswork out of your task.
2) DIY Cupcake Baking Kit
This DIY Cupcake Making Kit provides all the pre-measured ingredients and a detailed recipe card so you can make gourmet cupcakes at home, just add butter, eggs, and buttermilk. The kit is hand-packed from start to finish by the Red Velvet team in Brooklyn, NY. This is the easiest way to bake at home, and a memorable activity for the whole family.
3) Mixing Mate Paint Can Lid - Quart
This can mixer and lid combo for paint, varnish, and stain cans is every DIY-er’s dream come true. The Mixing Mate mixes, pours, and stores in one reusable lid—and makes the whole process easier and neater. The paddle mixes up contents, and a trigger on the handle lets you control pours. Leave the lid on to store the can between uses, or rinse it off to move on to your next job.
