Klutz has more crafty kits to keep you occupied but are they a hit or a miss? Kidzworld gives em a test run for you! Check it out.

The lazy days of summer are stretching out before you so you're going to have to occupy yourself fast before mom decides to alleviate your boredom with a few extra chores. Klutz has come to the rescue with more of their unique craft ideas. Let's check 'em out!

Klutz Paper Stained Glass

If you can color in the lines and count to 12, you can design wicked strained glass windows for you and your friends. Klutz's color-by-number kit contains 12 double-ended felts, 20 designs and even a couple of frames for your masterpieces. Each design has two different color schemes you can follow - or you can just get down with your artistic self by choosing your own colors. The transparent paper allows light to shine through your artwork and is smooth enough to prevent those horrible paper "nubbies" you usually get when coloring on regular paper with felts. The downside is that the felts can dry out before you make your way through all 20 designs - so make sure to keep them tightly capped when you're not using them.

Klutz Paper Fashions

Why buy off the rack when you can design your own haute stuff? This Klutz kit brings out your inner Gucci with its design stencils, oodles of patterned papers, sequins, ribbons and too-cute tiny hangers. There are literally hours of fun packed into this kit but we were seriously bummed to note that there isn't a tiny fashionista included to wear our designer duds. How are we supposed to get our boutique du papier off the ground without customers?!
