Box Clever!

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

We’ve just collected this fabulous consignment of wooden briefcase style boxes. They come in navy or birch finish and though they’re intended for storing paints and brushes, we think they’d be great for loads of stuff. They would be great for decorating as a gift too.

Lots more loveliness in this week, including:-

Mirror effect card

Lanky legged peg dolls

Coloured stickyback plastic

Plastic tubes with holes in (kinda like giant rollers)

Candy stripe cardboard tubes

Wadding

Clear plastic tubing

Chunky plastic cable reels

Fluffy stuffing

Woodn’t it be good…?

… if we finally got some hard wood?!

Finally we have a selection of scrumptious hard woods in stock. American Black Walnut, Oak and Cherry as well as some other goodies. It’s one off and limited but it’s lovely quality and very reasonably priced too.

Also in this week:-

Big sheets of styrofoam

Cable reels

Blue water pipe (Oh how we’ve missed you!)

Big sheets of corrugated card

Plastic shot glasses (guess that makes them not glasses)

Black plastic conduit in various dimensions (otherwise known as concertina hosepipey stuff great for making elephant trunks and snakes!)

Bright yellow plastic sheets with bumpybits (really good for sensory work)

Wonder Woman and Captain Chaos are lurking in the shadows too… really I kid you not!

Telephones of all shapes and sizes (dingaling!)

Tiger turf in mix of sizes and colours (we’ve even got some that looks lightly scorched, very fitting in this weather)

Lots of sticyback vinyl/plastic in lots of colours
