New Releases by Klutz Editors

A fan favorite gets the deluxe treatment In the glorious history of Klutz, perhaps no artsy activity has earned more universal love than window art. Kids, parents, grandparents, kids, teens, babysitters, kids, cool aunts and uncles, kids - everyone raves about it. And with good reason: It''s a super-simple craft with amazing, spectacular, glowing results. We figure that anything that brings this much happiness to the world deserves special treatment. So we''ve taken the best of both editions of Window Art and combined them into one epic volume. Simple step-by-step directions, helpful hints, and expert tips share the pages with easy-to-trace artwork by 17 different illustrators. The book comes with five vibrant colors of the best window paints in the world, packaged in easy-squeeze bottles. Plus there''s an extra-big bottle of black for outlining and two clear plastic overlays - all packaged in our new wrap-able, stack-able, boxy format. It''s everything you need to start tracing, squirting, and sticking art on any window you want. Whenever you''re ready for a change of scenery, just peel it off and do it again. And again. And again. And again...

Now any princess can decorate dream-come-true tiaras Every little girl is a princess, we all know that. But just in case anyone needs to be reminded precisely who deserves the royal treatment, we recommend wearing a tiara. The sparklier the better. With Make Your Own Disney Princess Tiaras, even preschool-age girls can create one-of-a-kind crowns in their own regal style. The tiaras themselves have adjustable Velcro closures for a custom fit and come in sparkling Belle Yellow, Cinderella Blue, and Ariel Pink. To decorate them, select from the array of jewels, sequins, pom-poms, and stickers, including only-from-Klutz Disney Princess portrait cameos. Enchanting! The book also includes mini tiaras (suitable for teddy-bears-in-waiting) and a full-size tiara stencil, so countless more tiaras can be cut out and decorated. Custom punch-outs for easy-tomake princess rings, bracelets, and wand-toppers complete the royal ensemble. Altogether, it''s enough finery to make the most persnickety princess feel happily ever after.

Young fashionistas get to design their own outfits, make-up, hairstyles, and accessories. Kids can draw right over the ''art starters'' - lightly printed outlines of faces, figures and accessories - to get perfectly proportioned fashion illustrations every time. There are glittery stickers to add for jewellery and other bling. Drawings can also be displayed in the Look Book - a selection of fabulous fold out frames.

Whimsical graphics, a moody colour palette, and a gently wicked sense of humour make Wicked Cool Friendship Bracelets a different kind of friendship bracelet book. Mix and match the supplies to make your own custom looks. The gorgeous patterns (with evocative names like Cobweb, Bitten, and Snake Charmer) are each clearly explained and illustrated in step-by-step detail. The resulting bracelets are so cool, any girl will be proud to make them to share or keep them to wear. And they''re so stylish they''re spooky.

Everything you need for a thumb-thumping throwdown!

Two contenders slide their hands in and clasp them together, poking their thumbs through the holes. The sleeve prevents cheating by locking the hands in place.

Since image is everything in the wrestling world, some clever thumb names and flashy costume ideas are also included. There''s even a handy referee guide and score cards. All of which makes Thumb Wars more than just a book. It''s the official rules of thumb.
