This giveaway is now closed.
So I know that this isn’t scrapbooking, but when Design originals contacted me I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to review the Totally Awesome Rubber Band Jewelry by Colleen Dorsey. As well as give a copy away to one of you!
If one of your kids has a loom (Rainbow Loom, Cra-Z-Loom, or FunLoom), then they will love this book.
In the first section Colleen Dorsey introduces the basics: covering the tools and materials you will need, understanding patterns, and making a basic bracelet.
If you don’t have a loom you can learn how to make a basic bracelet with a crochet hook, and a pen cap!
She ends with a set of Terrific Tips & Tricks, before moving on to showing you 10 advanced projects each with step by step instructions and photos. Go from simple and complex bracelets, to charms earrings and even a belt.
The book is well laid out, and looks very colorful and fun, and would appeal to kids for sure.
Now for the giveaway! Just leave me a comment letting me know if your kids are into the loom craze! I’ll pick a winner on Friday January 17th. Make sure to leave a valid e-mail address in the e-mail field so that I can contact you if you’re the winner.
Good luck!
