Review on 🌱 Recycled Paper Beads Kit - 4M Eco-friendly Crafting Supplies by Jeff Prabhu

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Stunning! Fun crafts for kids and adults

I've never made paper beads before but I wanted to try before giving them to my 9 year old niece. She tends to be a little hyperactive and gets bored easily, especially when something new is too difficult. I found the tool to be well built and intuitive to use - you don't have to worry about holding paper tension with one hand while rotating the other - there is a spring mechanism that does this for you. My husband woke up at 3am to find I was still making beads because it was so much fun. As expected, it was a big hit with my niece! She spent a good hour making beads while playing with her other presents on Christmas Eve. Suggestion: If you are planning to gift this to a younger child, you can pre-cut the extra paper. This way, they can start beadwork right away without having to do the part that many kids find boring.

Pros
  • A set of recycled paper beads teaches the value of recycling in real life. Simply place strips of paper in the tool and turn the handle to create decorative paper beads.
Cons
  • Some mistakes
