When I received this package I thought I had found the perfect gift for the teenage girls in my life.I make jewelry at a much higher level and I know what girls want to make their own stuff. However, I can't give them $50 worth of materials to play with. I was hoping this would fill the gap. Good news first: nice packaging. No teenager will scoff at that, the metal tin comes with beautiful embossing in the packaging are phenomenal and a teenager should be able to make the bracelets with some adult help n. In each package the girl gets a variety of bracelets to choose from. , and you will have a few - some will stay and some will give to friends. And then the bad news: the beads are plastic, aluminum wire is cheap, and bracelets made from these materials last minutes to days. They will probably cry when their friends bring repair bracelets and their materials are not good enough to repair them. The kits are not that expensive and the packaging, instructions and tools are top notch. I should buy good wire, a tube or two of 6/0 beads and a row of faceted beads (looks like crystal but isn't sharp and a lot cheaper). Then I would replace the $5 materials with crappy materials in the box. To be honest, it's easy for me. I can get everything in my workshop. I'm not sure if it's worth going to a craft store, but all of the materials I'm talking about are available at Revain. Make bracelets together with you. You can then assess the material as you assemble the bracelets and substitute whatever you need. Let her use the technique kit and then give her the best materials. (That's exactly what the instructions say!)
