Art Supplies Guide: Scratch Notes, Ornaments, Wooden Magnets, and Face Stickers

Choosing art supplies depends on the activity: quick doodling, hanging crafts, paint-and-display projects, or decoration. This guide compares four kid-friendly craft picks by listed price and best use.

Last updated Jul 23

Choosing art supplies is really about matching the project to the setting. A lunchbox note pad, a classroom ornament activity, a paintable magnet kit, and a sheet of face decals can all sit in the same craft drawer, but they solve different problems. The right pick depends on whether you want fast, low-prep doodling, a themed hanging craft, a paint-and-display activity, or stickers for decorating party projects.

Quick take

  • Best for quick doodles and notes: 165 Rainbow Scratch Paper Art Crafts Mini Notes Stocking Stuffers for Kids Gifts. It is the lowest listed price in this group and focuses on scratch-note cards with styluses.
  • Best for a themed hanging activity: WATINC 60Pcs Scratch Cross Ornaments, Magic Art Color Craft Kit for Kids Scratch Party. It is the highest listed price, but it is built around ornament-style scratch crafts with ribbon.
  • Best for paint-and-display crafting: DIY Wooden Magnets, 36 Pcs Wooden Art Craft Supplies Painting Kit for Kids Party. It pairs wooden crafts with colored pens and magnet stickers.
  • Best for decorating smooth surfaces and party props: Huahui Face Stickers for Crafts - Eyes, Mouth, Nose Decals for DIY & Party Decor. It is the sticker-focused choice with multicolor cartoon face designs.

Listed price comparison

The listed prices run from USD 11.80 to USD 18.96, with the lowest price sitting 38% below the highest. That makes the scratch notes the least expensive way into the group, while the scratch cross ornament kit is the priciest pick here.

Concise product notes

165 Rainbow Scratch Paper Art Crafts Mini Notes Stocking Stuffers for Kids Gifts

This is the easiest fit when you want many small creative moments rather than one larger build. The scratch-note format works for doodles, lists, thank-you cards, labels, backpack notes, lunchbox notes, and quick illustrations. The included styluses matter because the activity does not depend on paint, markers, or glue to reveal the rainbow colors under the black surface. Its main limitation is that the pieces are described as mini notes, so it is better for compact messages and simple drawings than for larger poster-style artwork. The manufacturer recommended age range is 36 months to 12 years, which makes it especially aimed at younger kids' craft use.

60Pcs Scratch Cross Ornaments, Magic Art Color Craft Kit for Kids Scratch Party

The WATINC scratch cross ornament kit is the most focused themed craft in the set. Choose it when the project needs a defined finished shape, especially for Easter party use, classroom activity, holiday party favors, hanging decorations, gift tags, bookmarks, school projects, church groups, or birthday gifts. The package centers on cross ornaments, wood sticks, bamboo sticks, and hanging ribbon, so it has more of an activity-kit feel than plain scratch paper. The tradeoff is that the theme is specific: if you need open-ended drawing paper or non-religious shapes, this will feel less flexible than scratch notes, magnets, or face decals. It is also the highest listed price among the four.

DIY Wooden Magnets, 36 Pcs Wooden Art Craft Supplies Painting Kit for Kids Party

Pick this wooden magnet kit when you want the craft to turn into something displayable. It includes wooden crafts, colored pens, and magnet stickers, so the activity moves from drawing to decorating a fridge or holding small notes. That makes it a good fit for kids who enjoy coloring but also like seeing the finished piece used afterward. The wood color and painting-kit format also set it apart from the scratch-art options, since children are adding color instead of revealing it. The limitation is that it is not a scratch-paper kit and does not offer the same instant rainbow reveal; it depends on coloring the wooden pieces with the included pens.

Face Stickers for Crafts - Eyes, Mouth, Nose Decals for DIY & Party Decor

The Huahui face stickers are the best match for decorating existing objects rather than making a standalone drawing project. The multicolor cartoon face pattern includes lips, mouths, eyes, eyebrows, noses, and related designs, which works well for party decor, DIY character crafts, and playful smooth-surface embellishment. The sheet format is useful when multiple faces or expressions are needed across several items. Its limitation is that this is a sticker-decal product, not a drawing kit with pens, styluses, wooden pieces, or ornaments. It is strongest as an add-on for crafts and decorations, while the other picks are better if the main activity needs to be coloring or scratch art from start to finish.

How to choose between them

For the broadest everyday craft use, the scratch mini notes are the most flexible. They suit short attention spans, casual doodling, and situations where a child may want to make several small pieces instead of carefully finishing one larger project. They are also the lowest listed price, which helps if you mainly want a large supply of simple art moments.

For a planned group event, the WATINC ornament kit has a clearer activity structure. The ornaments, sticks, and ribbon give participants a path from scratching a design to hanging the finished piece. That structure is helpful for classrooms, parties, and group craft tables where the finished result should look connected across many makers.

For kids who like coloring more than scratching, the wooden magnet kit is the better fit. It gives them wooden shapes to decorate and magnet stickers for the finished craft. Compared with scratch paper, it may feel more like a traditional art project because the child chooses and applies the colors directly.

For party decoration and imaginative faces, the Huahui sticker sheets fill a different role. They are less about making art from a blank surface and more about turning objects into characters. That makes them easy to pair with cups, containers, paper crafts, or other smooth-surface decorations when the goal is quick expression.

Final recommendation

If you want one general-purpose pick, choose 165 Rainbow Scratch Paper Art Crafts Mini Notes Stocking Stuffers for Kids Gifts at USD 11.80. It has the lowest listed price, the broadest note-and-doodle use, and the description points to many everyday craft uses from lists to lunchbox notes.

Choose DIY Wooden Magnets, 36 Pcs Wooden Art Craft Supplies Painting Kit for Kids Party at USD 13.67 if the finished craft should become a magnet. Choose Huahui Face Stickers for Crafts - Eyes, Mouth, Nose Decals for DIY & Party Decor at USD 16.99 if decorating faces and party objects matters more than drawing. Choose WATINC 60Pcs Scratch Cross Ornaments, Magic Art Color Craft Kit for Kids Scratch Party at USD 18.96 when you specifically want scratch-art ornaments with a hanging craft format.
