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!
My granddaughter has the loom and she would just love this book she has been making braclets since christmas and just cant stop
My granddaughter loves this craft. I would really want to win it for her! Thanks for the chance!
My daughter loves these.
My kids are older but i love the bands myself.
My kids do not make the jewelry themselves, but they are all wearing it!! I think it would be great for them to have a kit to make it themselves!!
This book looks great. My daughter has a couple looms and doesn’t know what to do with them or all the bands she got for Christmas!
My daughter loves making chains! (We need new stuff to make!)
My kids are completely hooked, and I have to say I have made a few myself..lol
My granddaughter is 6 and would love the loom. She is currently only able to do the hook method(that’s all she has). The book looks fantastic. Her birthdays in March-loom sounds like a great gift.
Kids love these….cannot get enough…i must admit…pretty darn clever
My son is crazy for looms – he bought himself a second one so he could do more complicated stuff!
My granddaughter has gone crazy making bracelets on her loom. Such a fun way to get her interested in “homemade.” I never realized, until I watched her, what a great tool to learn problem solving!
My granddaughter loves the rubber band loom. She does them with her father 🙂
My granddaughters love to do this looming. This is what they did on the snow days and get to go to school.
My daughter has just announced she wants one of these looms. She says she makes them at school with one of her friends looms. She says she wants to learn the more complicated versions and has you tubed a bunch but she is more of a paper picture type person. Video goes to fast at this point for her. Love to win a book to go along with the loom she will get for her up coming birthday! Thanks for the chance to win!
I gave my 7 year old granddaughter a loom for Christmas. We love to do crafts together. I would be wonderful to add this book to our time together.
My daughter got one from a friend, she wanted to make them too so we got her some little kits. Now she loves to make them for friends. Her Birthday is Friday and she is getting a loom and even more supplies. I heard you can find videos on-line on how to create animals and other neat things w/ a second loom. Love the creative ideas, Great Fun.
My 14 year old daughter received a loom and tons of rubber bands for Christmas, this past Friday (1/10/14) someone stole her backpack at school. Not only did she lose her new backpack and school supplies but she also lost all her looming items (except the loom itself). We are working on replacing the items but this book would really make her day.
I have three girls who decorate everything with the things they make with the loom! They just got the Rainbow loom for christmas, and it’s been non stop from there.
I hope to get one of these books soon so they have new patterns and ideas to play around with.
Thanks for sharing!
My “grands” are totally into the loom! They’ve got Nana “hooked”, too!
oh my we got our for christmas and havent stopped we love it
My daughter loves to make these!!! She makes them for everyone. Even dad wears them !
i don’t have any kids but just bought one for myself!
She has 2, one for each house!
yes
My oldest received a loom for Christmas and would go bats over this idea book. Thanks for the opportunity to win it!
My grand daughter is obsessed with Rubber Band Jewelry. That is all she wanted for Christmas. She got the loom and lots of extra bands…but no book. Would love to win this for her!
My daughter just LOVES her loom! She has oodles of bands to make more creations, but would so enjoy a how-to book!
My son got one for Christmas and he loves it! Over the weekend he made key chains for us.
Yes! My daughter got a rainbow loom for Christmas. I am thrilled with how much fun she is having, and how great she feels when she completes a project. She gets to be creative, and work on hand eye coordination & following instructions. Love it!! She would LOVE this book 🙂
My daughter learned to do the fishtail using her fingers before we got the loom and made a bunch of bracelets for her friends. Now she has the loom but still prefers to use her fingers! I’m sure receiving this book will inspire her to try out the loom again!
My daughter got a loom for Christmas and it’s been so popular with my kids, I had to get a second one. It’s been a big hit in my house!
YES I love this rubber band and my grandson love them to I just love to get a books to work how with more was.
My daughter is completely crazy about the looms. She takes one loom to school and makes the bracelets with her friends at school.
It’s a fantastic way to make things to match all of their outfits and not cost tons of money.
My 11 year old son is loom crazy. He used his allowance and brought one and is having fun with it.
My grand daughter has a loom and makes cutet scarfs.
Got a loom for granddaughter, but having trouble making the bracelets, this book would be great to help us. Thanks for the chance
That was a big hit at Christmas for my 6 grandchildren. I would love this book so I can teach them when they come over. Thanks for the chance to win this book.
My 12 year old twin girls have jumped onto the Rainbow Loom craze. We started with inexpensive knockoff looms, but quickly realized they “needed” the real Rainbow Loom for their fancier designs.
My three grandsons love the Rainbow Loom I sent them. It was their second one. Some projects require two. I hope this book has plenty of boy-friendly projects. If not, I guess I’ll buy a loom and make some myself. Either way, I’m raising my hand to win!
My 10-year-old great-niece had a loom but left it on the (messy, cluttered) floor under a heap of “stuff” in her room and later stepped on it and broke it. I bought her another loom for Christmas, and she is much more careful with this one! I’m sure the book would further inspire her — and maybe she would even clean up her room a bit!
My daughter loves making these bracelets and is always looking for new ideas.
Both my girls got one for Christmas. What a fun thing! So far they watch YouTube videos to learn.
oh yes Grand daughter is 7 and she uses pencils forks you name it to make these. She has gotten me into making the things she can’t. Great way to spend time with her making memories for a life time. would so enjoy this book
No kids of my own but my neice is crazy, crazy about these!! We’re getting her a loom for her birthday and this book would go perfect with it!!!
My Grandchildren and I are making these bracelets for their Valentine Cards going to class mates.
We are also making them for a fund raiser going to American Foundation of Suicide Prevention. This fund raiser was a success last year and we are already working on the 2014 fund raiser.
Thanks for sharing other pattern ideas with us.
We have so many bands & need some ideas on what to do with. This book would be so useful. Thanks for the chance to win.
my daughter is, but she doesnt have a loom yet- im giving it to her for her borthday that is coming up- this would be super to give it to her too! Then we can both learn how to make the bracelets- LOL
my daughter also got a loom for christmas, has used christmas money to buy more bands & charms. i’m currently wearing 2 bracelets that she’s made me – she’s also made some for everyone else in the family too! i’ve made the “mistake” of telling her about better prices & band collections on line for purchase, now she’s bugging me to get her online to shop!
