LNC Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 My kids are so addicted but it is expensive! I keep telling them this is FINE art. Take your time and take it seriously :). They have made so many really great things and I can see this really taking off as a hobby. Does any one else have kids who enjoy this hobby? Do you have any books or tools you especially like? We are using the Klutz books right now w/ some artsy library books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 We have the Klutz books as well. To conserve, we use a lot of tinfoil and I encourage paler colours by purchasing the big 1lb blocks of white for mixing. I don't, however, stop the girls from using bright or undiluted colours, or they would never want to use the diluted ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottakee Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 My girls love Sculpey clay as well but we only buy it with 40-50% off coupons from Michaels or Hobby Lobby, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanne in ABQ Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I definitly wait until it goes on sale for half-off. JoAnnes, Hobby Lobby, and Michaels frequently have 50% off sales. Target has good prices, too. There are other, more advanced books out there, too. We've seen them, but I don't know the names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
