Editorial Review

This colorful plastic briefcase, packed with paper-craft supplies, is perfect for the child who adores art projects. The case, which measures just over 9 by 12 inches, has tuck-in tab closures and a purple carrying handle. Open it up and you'll find a whole host of materials, including colorful construction paper, shiny metallic paper, geometric-shaped tissue paper, dot stickers, doilies and doily hearts, pipe cleaners, color-and-cut cardboard animal masks, origami paper, and creative origami folding instructions. The set also comes with an idea booklet that will teach you how to make several different paper projects, from doily tiaras to fancy paper fans to finger puppet friends. There's enough here to keep the most ardent arts-and-crafts enthusiast busy, and it all stows neatly in the plastic case for convenient cleanup and transport. --Elisabeth Fredrickson

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't give good value for the money, December 12, 2002

This review is from: Alex MY PAPER CRAFT CASE (Toy)

We ordered two of these for christmas gifts and when we got them we turned around and sent them right back. Inside the vinyl holder was a very small pack of materials, it just looked like very little for [the money]. We didn't open the small package of materials because we knew it was going back. When we spend [money] on a gift it has got to be more substantial than this.

This review is from: Alex MY PAPER CRAFT CASE (Toy)

I bought this kit because i love to do paper crafts, but when i opened it I was very disappointed, it was not what i expected for the money i paid. The cut and color masks are a little scary for smaller children, there is only 2 in the package that is acceptable for young children the rest are scary dinosaur faces. I was expecting cute animal faces. I did get glue and scissors in the package which isn't stated in the picture and description. Overall the purchase was a big disappointment, I won't be purchasing it again.

This review is from: Alex MY PAPER CRAFT CASE (Toy)

My 6 year old and I spent a great rainy afternoon making masks and then putting togeather little skits that we performed for his Mom. I liked that there were many options that helped my son bring out his creativity. Something different from the usual action figure stuff. He also liked the carrying case.
