Art & Craft Kits
Make something worth keeping.
A family handprint frame for the people you love, and pearl diamond painting kits for slow, satisfying evenings. Everything you need is in the box.
Shop the kitsAbout Make & Mend
Make & Mend started with a simple idea: the best decorations and gifts are the ones someone made by hand. Not the perfect ones — the ones with a slightly crooked handprint or a bead placed just a little off center.
We keep our catalog small on purpose. Right now that means three kits: a family handprint frame that turns painted hands into wall art, and two Christmas pearl diamond painting kits that build up a raised, shimmering design bead by bead.
The handprint kit comes with six non-toxic, acid-free paints in red, yellow, blue, green, white, and black, plus a frame with a thickened acrylic sheet, an enlarged brush, and a dust sticker for the frame's top groove. The paints wipe and wash off easily, which matters when small hands are involved.
The pearl diamond painting kits are pre-framed and ready to hang once finished. Each one includes the canvas, pearl beads, a wax pen, and a tray, with clear symbols printed on the canvas so you can place beads without any painting skill.
We think crafting should be low-pressure. No complicated tools, no long supply lists, no experience required. Just open the box, follow the steps, and end up with something you want to keep.
That is the whole shop. A few good kits, described honestly, made for the people and moments you want to remember.

Common questions
What comes in the family handprint kit?
The kit includes a frame with a thickened acrylic glass sheet, an insert for the handprints, six non-toxic acid-free paints (red, yellow, blue, green, white, and black), an enlarged brush, and a transparent dust sticker for the frame's top groove.
Is the handprint paint safe for babies?
The paint is non-toxic and acid-free, and it wipes and washes off easily. As with any craft supply, keep it out of mouths and supervise little ones while you work.
Do the pearl diamond painting kits need extra framing?
No. Both pearl diamond painting kits come pre-framed, so the finished piece can go straight on the wall. Each kit includes the canvas, pearl beads, a wax pen, and a tray.
Do I need painting or crafting experience?
Not at all. The pearl kits use clear symbols printed on the canvas to show where each bead goes, and the handprint kit is as simple as painting hands and pressing them onto the insert.
