Spirograph Deluxe Design Tin Set

If your 8 year old princess enjoys being creative, then she’s going to love the Spirograph Delux Design Tin Set!

For well over 50 years, children have been using spirographs to create unique intricate designs and interesting art work to color with pencils or pens.

This Spirograph Design Set is a modern take on the original Spirograph. Your little girl will get 45 pieces in this set, including 19 wheels, 2 rings to keep the gears inside to create the designs, spiral putty to hold each ring in place and keep it from moving when she is creating her designs, 3 different colored pens, and 20 sheets of drawing paper.

She will also get a guide that shows her how to create different designs, as well as a nice portable storage case to keep everything together.

Once your little princess gets the hang of using the Spirograph to create designs, she can then begin to create her own unique designs using this set.

Please note that regular paper can be used once the 20 sheets with the kit are used up, making it possible to create endless designs.

Your child can use this set to create her own Mandala like coloring pages, or to make unique cards or pictures for her friends, siblings or family members.

This Spirograph set can also be used to create a design on a sanded piece of wood that can then be painted to make a really cool wall plaque for your little girl to hang on her bedroom wall.

There is a bit of a learning curve that your child will experience in order to create the very best designs using this set, but the fascination of using this set will help to improve her ability to concentrate for extended periods of time on projects.

Project Runway Fashion Design Sketch Portfolio

When I was a little girl, paper dolls were a cheap toy that my parents would purchase from time to time. As a young girl, I enjoyed dressing these dolls in the outfits that came with the doll, but what I enjoyed even more was creating my own outfits for my paper dolls.

Let’s face it, girls these days are showing an interest in fashion at a younger age than we did growing up. This Project Runway Fashion Design Sketch Portfolio allows your little girl to explore the world of fashion by creating her own unique outfits for the models in this kit.

Designed for girls age 8 years old, this Fashion Angels Project Runway comes with 40 pre-printed sketch pages with the models on them.

There are then 5 stencils containing 100 fashion and accessory shapes that your child can mix and match to create her own stylish fashions for the models.

There is even a page of sketches of fabric swatches to help inspire your fashion princess to use different colors and textures in creating her fashion designs.

In addition to the stencils, your little eight year old girl can create from scratch her own unique clothing and accessories line for models.
