I never thought in all my years I would come across an unused paint by number craft kit at a thrift store but I did and for only 2.99!
A velvet painting one... The Matador with frame, 1964.
The oil paint is all dried up but I think I like his look unpainted.
He had a senorita to match as this included ad shows.
Also included in the kit was a huge sized newspaper type full color catalog of other available kits!
I really love the 'Oriental Garden' three piece set shown bottom middle.
On the back is a small kid's craft section of kits I have never seen before. The illustration styles with the Numbered Glitter Kits is neat. I also like the wood grain panel tile kits, especially the 'Rocket Ship'. And check out the Nylon Net Kits! There's Tillie the Turtle!
WOW!!! That is amazing find, Mary!!!!
ReplyDeleteI really like those Nylon Net kits! Too bad those aren't around anymore :)
These are outstanding! (Rob)
ReplyDeleteThere are so many old craft kits that I wish were still being made! I will just have to take matters into my own hands and try to figure out how to do them with out the instructions...or pre-measured and cut supplies...or materials that aren't made anymore....ugh!
