 Making friendship bracelets easy. February 9, 2010
Patricia A. Baker (Tucson, AZ, USA)
I had to set this up for my 5 year old, and she needed close supervision to work the wheel, but she had a great time sitting on my lap working it. At her age, it was definitely a joint project, but I can see this being a great hit with young tweens and teens. I didn't find that it took longer than I expected. I completed an adult sized bracelet in about an hour, including the "help" I was getting. This was definitely easier than keeping track of the threads and patterns by hand.
 Good passtime for girls. September 27, 2009

I got this for my grand-daughter. She did enjoy it, but needed her mother's help.

We bought this kit for some summer fun. It was difficult to follow the directions (even my older teens had trouble - the bracelets do not come out like the patterns show) and it made pretty chunky bracelets. Also, if you make the floss lengths as directed, the bracelets are pretty short (will fit younger kids better) - they won't stay on the "loom" long enough to make them longer. Also, the loom isn't very sturdy and would bend and the slots got frayed after a few bracelets. My kids would have liked to make some skinnier styles but the kit only came with 4 wide patterns. It takes a lot of floss to make a bracelet so plan on buying extra floss if you want to make more than 4-5 bracelets. All in all, it was a good purchase but not something that will be used over and over again.
Wow! June 28, 2009

My 9 year old daughter got this as a birthday gift. I packed it to keep her busy on a 5 hour car trip. The directions were very easy to follow.(I am not a crafty person and the fact that I was able to pull it off was amazing!) She and I spent much of the car ride each making a bracelet. I had mine(flower pattern) done and she was wearing it for our trip. It goes very quickly once you get the motion down. She got hers(multicolored) almost finished by time we reached our arrival. (She opted for some reading time too.) Great craft. Makes a quality looking product. Highly recommended I'm buying more for gifts.

This project is so cool. When you first look at it you would never believe that it would make a bracelet, but it does! I have done a little research and people have said that this product is based off of a old Japanese loom-type-thing. I think it is amazing and my grandmother couldn't believe it either. The only band thing is the embroidery floss. It does not come in many colors, it has a knot tying together the two ends that is very hard to get undone, and in the middle of my first project a piece broke in my hand so I had to start all over again. Luckily I had already ordered embroidery floss that should be here soon.
