Wonderful Book

I bought the wildlife of the world book and it is amazing. It comes with 12 foil sheets, they come in gold, silver, holographic and rainbow. Each animal page has a page of information about the animal across from it and it has a piece of thin paper between the pages to protect the foil page from damage. It has 2 straps to hold the tool on the side of the book. The front and back covers are a little oversized to cover the tool so it doesn't scratch anything, or anyone it shouldn't. The tool I got is plastic with a sharp metal tip. It is perfect for fine detail and the pictures have a lot of detail. I have been doing scrapper foil art for about 15 years and I didn't expect this amount of detail on a page that is only a little over 8 x 6 inches. My book did have a few scrapes on a couple of the foil pages around the edges, but nothing that I couldn't cover up. The wildlife book has pictures of lioness &cub, tiger & cubs, spider monkey & baby, giraffe & baby, great ape, lion and cubs, leopard, polar bear & babies, killer whales, penguins, rhino & baby, and elephant & baby. There are 12 pages of blank paper in the back that you can use to sketch on or as I do to protect the foil picture from my skin oil while I work on it.

Bought this for an 8 year old

I love these engraveables and have done many for gifts. I bought this for my granddaughter. She is able to complete the engraving without much difficulty and enjoys have her picture along with info about the animals. It is a great gift to take with you to keep busy while they wait at appointments or to have when there are no toys available...quiet too!

Excellent product

This is an amazing gift, fun hobby, and perfect for anyone. Well designed with high quality binding. I want to frame the results!!! My brother, 38, myself, and my 8 yr old niece all LOVE this!!!

read all information very carefully and take your time. Getting used to the pen.

Ideal for retirement relaxation. The satisfaction when it is completed. The delights of the families. Given as a birthday card sometimes or gift

So fun

I really enjoy the etching. Time consuming and requires attention to detail.

Fun

Granddaughter carries this everywhere, she has shared with friends. The small size is perfect for carrying. Disappointed the "24" pages were 12 pages of animals and 12 sketching papers...I will pay more attention when ordering.

Love it!

Although this says it’s for ages 8 and up, I would not recommend giving this to a child that young unless they’re very precise with detail, not to mention the fact this comes with a sharp object! I would say teens and up. I’ve read reviews saying these are “messy”. Well, you are scraping away a design. Common sense will tell you there will be some debris. If you don’t want mess, this isn’t for you. I’ve also seen people saying the pictures don’t come out very well. This is something you have to take your time with. You can’t rush through it. It requires some concentration. I first did one of these about 15 years ago and loved the outcome because I put time into it. Just a little tip: be careful how you hold the scraping tool. It makes a difference.

Love these engraving kits!

I’ve purchased these engraving kits before at craft stores and really enjoy them as a way to relax and de-stress. I like the idea of a book, which I had never seen before. I’m very happy with this and will buy again and would make a great gift or stocking stuffer.

Perfect for kids of all ages!

Great way to keep all your artwork together to take with you. There’s even a place to keep the stylus! Many different foils under each picture. This would keep you busy for quite a while. I highly recommend it.
