What it is:
A craft kit where little fashionistas can create their own paper-clothing couture.
Why we love it:
Paper fashions get glam! Young designers get to turn colorful paper, ribbons, beads, sequins, and jewels into glamorous fashions and accessories with Paper Fashions Fancy. The Editors of Klutz have designed an all-new set of patterned and colored papers — some with glitter, foil, and velvety black flocking — and the emphasis is on combining shapes to make elaborate, fancy couture: gowns, red-carpet-ready ensembles, prom-pretty frocks, and more. The possible combinations of papers, stencil shapes, and embellishments are limitless. Which is a good thing because when it comes to glamour, too much is never enough.
Who we'd give it to:
Project Runway hopefuls
age 8 and
up can start early with this kit.
Where to get it:
From
Amazon.com for a stylish $14.93.
