A round little whale in royal blue thread swims across this pine board, with a curled tail and a small spray of water above its head. It is a DIY string art kit: you set the nails, wind the thread and end up with a piece of wall or shelf decor you made yourself.

Whales turn up in sea shanties and children's stories as gentle giants of the ocean, and a spouting whale is one of the most loved nursery motifs. String art boomed as a home craft in the 1960s and 70s, when boards of nails and colored thread hung in living rooms everywhere; this kit brings the idea back in a cleaner, modern style.

Why this kit: a palm-size board that stands on its own little easel, so it is finished and on display the same evening; a single bold shape that fills in fast, ideal for a first string art project; and all you need in one small box, hammer included.

Kit includes: a round pre-drilled pine board, a mini wooden display easel, a bag of nails, colored thread, a small hammer and an instruction sheet showing the winding and knotting methods. Not included: scissors for trimming the thread ends.

Tap the nails into the pre-drilled holes with the small hammer, tie the thread to a starting nail, outline the shape first and then fill it in with criss-cross passes, one color at a time, finishing with a small knot. The nails are small and sharp, so it is a project for adults, teens and older children working with an adult.

The finished piece measures about 11 cm (4.3 in) across. It is a natural fit for a nursery, a bathroom or a beach-house shelf, and makes a thoughtful gift for an ocean lover or new parents.
