Suncatchers

Makit&Bakit Stained Glass Suncatchers ages 7 and up.

Quincrafts makes this great holiday stocking stuffer, birthday gift, indoor activity or decorative item that kids can make themselves.

Makit&Bakit is a simple activity that can get as creative as the child/artist wants it to be. Young artists use colorful crystals to decorate the provided frames that come in many different shapes such as dogs, cats, dragonflies and many more.

Each kit includes the metal frame, assorted color baking crystals, suction cups, or key chains to use on the decorative suncatchers.

Helpful hints: Depending on your oven you might need to use higher oven temperatures than recommended. Use diagonally cut straws to place the crystals in the metal frames
