Disappointed with craft kits

This kit is misleading and partly my fault for not looking at the reviews BUT it does NOT contain everything you need to make jewelry and a key component that Seen in the PICTURE is listed in the instructions and is needed to actually make the necklaces and many items are NOT included. No small round metal rings were included. We only realized this after my daughter had already colored 6 pieces while waiting to create the necklace pictured on the box. Very disappointed and I think the box…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Something different

Not as described - missing parts

I ordered it for my daughter for Christmas. The packaging was different and contained different embellishments than listed in the product description. In addition, it does not contain key components for making jewelry; Metal rings for connecting parts indicated in the instructions but not included in the table of contents (see photo). I requested an exchange which arrived within two days but it's the same. I will return this one too. Shrink Dinks worked great, but if we can't make decorations…

Pros
  • Few competitors

Not enough accessories to make jewelry

It had a great variety of cut outs to dye and shrink which my daughter (6) loved. It kept her and her friend busy for hours. However, it lacks elastic threads and metal parts necessary to make all the cuts in the jewelry. Also in the instructions it is shown that small metal rings are used to attach the dinks to the earring but these rings are not included at all. So very disappointing. I can of course buy them individually, but I expect them to be bundled when they appear in the instructions.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Compatibility

Fun craft for a rainy day!

I bought these to make with my nieces on a rainy day. Girls 3 and 5 years old. My 5 year old loved them! She could be creative and make fun jewelry to wear. A three year old did one and then lost interest. Please note: This set contains small beads. You will find these beads everywhere months after making this craft. Also, the string is elastic but not strong. We broke a lot of bracelets (hence the beads everywhere). Also, this kit contains only finished parts. You can't draw your own…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • No gun

the answer was “well, one likes to sew and the other likes to bake”

when I asked what the twins could wish for their birthday, the answer was "well, one likes handicrafts and the other - baking "". I immediately remembered my childhood and shrink dinks! Did it still exist? Hell yes, so I bought tons of these. I also bought an oven to go with it, so I didn't stop baking and watch them shrink. They were amazed every time. My 5 year old nieces loved them! My 5 year old nephew loved them. My 6 year old nephew loved them! and the 7 year old girl next door loved them

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • i don’t remember

Remember shrinky dinks. Not true? Of course you do. These things have been around for years, and there's a reason for that. They are very cheap and very fun! I bought this jewelry set for Christmas last year from http://amzn.to/1AMroXR. They both made good and cheap gifts that put a big smile on my daughter's face. However, when the boxes were opened, the Shrinky Dinks jewelry set was used ten times more than the other "infinity set". My girls had a lot more fun crafting, baking and wearing the

Pros
  • . Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Still fun to watch as they get smaller

Shrinky dinks were the coolest stuff when I was a kid so I decided to share them with my 5 and 7 year olds. Watching them curl and melt in the oven is a kid's right of way, much like assembling Lego and baking chunky cupcakes in a basic oven. Every child should have the opportunity to do this at least once. Luckily, shrink dinks have only gotten better and better over time (unlike light baked goods). When I was a kid, you would draw your own picture and then carefully cut it out, preferably…

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

A fun project that worked as advertised.

My 7 year old son and I spent a few hours playing with these shrink wraps. He liked to draw all the animals and I drew the flowers. He was amazed at how they shrank in the oven and enjoyed watching them curl and then straighten into a smaller but thicker shape. After several successful shrink jobs, he got creative and used markers (instead of the included pens) to color in the figures. He also wrote short messages. So far we have played twice with this kit for several hours each time. There is…

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Almost never
