A household art tub for changing the medium
Check before buying

A fashion project that starts with arranging, not sewing

A small unicorn garden with a second session built into the care
Check before buying
Seeds need water and suitable light; the finished garden is a display project rather than a durable playset. Follow the material-specific storage and cleaning directions to keep the remaining supplies usable.
