Klutz Glossy Bands
First off I want to say Klutz Books have been a favorite in our house for a while now. My 10 yr old has quite a few of their books. She discovered them at Target about 2 years ago. They have given her quite a few hours of enjoyment! I love how they generate the creative side of kids, actually teach them things with out them knowing! That’s always a bonus. 
So I was very happy when I was given the chance to offer a giveaway on my blog for three Klutz Glossy Bands books. They sent me a book for my daughter to try out. The instructions are very clear. The products are very easy to use and the mess was very minimal. My daughter and I both agree that kindergarten and up would probably be the recommended age unless there is an adult right there helping.
Materials that come with the book
You receive with the book four paint gels, four toothpicks to swirl the paint and four plastic strips to work on.
Starting your project...
Move on to the next color....
Swirl the color.....
Set to dry...
The book recommends that you wait 24 hours for the paint to dry and then whala! You have very pretty bracelets!
The finished product.
My daughter had a blast making these and went on to make two ten more. My 3 year old has been playing with them all morning and they have yet to break. She’s rough on stuff so it is a testimate to their durability!

Who could wait til Christmas? They look really cute.
Okay, I'm mentioning Imperfect Women too.
I've been doing lots of crafts with my 5 yr. old daughter lately. This looks like so much fun!

They really are! My daughter's made a whole bunch so far. Really cute. Thanks for entering!
What a clever idea! I wasn't aware of these books. Thanks for passing along the information.
Are the bands included in the book?

You make them with the paint gels so the kids can design them however they want them. They can do them skinny, fat short like rings. They are so cool. My daughter has made like ten of them. The kids in the neighborhood have been trying to trade her for them!
And that makes 3 entries for you! Thanks so much Linda. If you follow IW too let me know and that's extra entries too.
Duh. Sorry for the above question. I watched the You:Tube video and figure out that the paint turns into the bands. I can't wait to get these from my kids.
How many would you say a tube of paint will produce?
I read IW but I'm not signed up as a follower so not sure if that counts. But thanks.

So far my daughter has made 10, one was like an inch and a half thick and she still has at least a quarter of her paint left in each bottle.. I'd say quite a few, plus they have a link in the end of the book for reorders of the paint. And IW doesn't have a "follower" link per say but if you read that's good enough! So that makes 5 entries for you!

I only have sons and they are grown but I know some little girls that would love these. Thanks for sharing.
Hope you had a safe trip. Stopped by to see the site again. I ordered one book from Target and it arrived today. I'm going to leave it for kids to enjoy while I'm in Florida. I try to leave "Mommy" presents for whenever I'm gone. And I'll trust Hubby not to let them make a mess, lol. This is just the cutest product.
