Using Paints or Markers?
Paint and marker style will vary. I try to include quality materials but please understand that this may mean a variety in the brand or colors if you order the same kit year after year. Markers are always ones I test to make sure they are washable and the acrylic paint pods have also been tested. While clean up is tested I do suggest you have kids immediately wash hands after they paint or color as it is easiest to clean up before it dries or soaks in more. Setting up a crafting friendly area is also a good idea. Using parchment paper that is paints taped down to a surface will help protect your surface. Paint brushes should be washed once use is done to ensure they are useable again. Paint pods should be shut firmly to make sure they don’t dry out. Makers should have their caps shut firmly to make sure they also don’t dry out.
Paint pods ship in plastic bag to protect your kit contents as well as other mail being processed. Please consider reusing this bag to store any art materials you don’t use the first time around.
Finishing Tips
When using stain, paint or a clear coat be sure to follow the instructions on the finish container. Always allow the finish to cure/dry completely before handing. If you plan to use these pieces in a humid area or out of doors look for an exterior finish. If the included paint or markers are used you may want to consider sealing the art with a clear coat, non-yellowing, acrylic spray. You can find those at in with the spray paint at most any art or hardware store but it is almost always cheaper at a hardware store.
Making A Baby Mobile
When hanging your cat cutouts as a mobile I highly suggest Beadalon Supplemax Monofilament Illusion Cord. I normally use this in addition to small beads to help hold and hide my knots. When designing your mobile remember that it should be out of the reach of infants and toddlers who might otherwise pull it down on themselves. If you are using your cat wooden cut outs to craft wall décor you can use the same illusion cord. If using a branch as the support please remember to be careful when drilling your holes and to use the proper protection. If you don't want “live bark” on the branch you can also sand it and finish it (stain / paint) the same as your feline cut outs.
Be warned that if you use an outside product like a branch the finishing may not look exactly the same as it does on the kitten cut outs. These kits are great if you want to give someone a DIY cat themed baby mobile, or you want to hang up some cat themed wall art in your office / entry / cabin or living room. These kits are also great for kids (with adult supervision as small parts could be choking hazards) if they want a DIY décor craft or they want to make feline ornaments, cat magnets or tags in general. A great sit down activity!
