Good fun project on my review.

A cute afternoon craft project that was perfect for my 6 year old son to tackle. He needed a little help getting started- putting the pins in at that age is tricky, but everything else really he was able to do. The project allows for some flexibility in execution, and honestly, not following the directions to a T made the end projects even cuter. He was very proud of the finished projects. The box is small enough to slip into an airplane bag for on the go projects and I think I’ll grab a couple

Pros
  • Great gift for 7 year old daughter! Looks exactly like what is shown on the box.
Cons
  • This should be for 6 and up. My grandkids did it in under ten minutes. But they had fun.

Brings back my childhood!

I was tickled to see this kit as a Vine offering as I used to do string art when I was a kid. back then my dad would help me put nails around a circle in a board and then I'd use embroidery thread to string around the circle and come up with some great designs.This is a fun kit. Everything you need comes in a nice neat package, well organized and ready to go. The box is quite a bit bigger than the package, though. I would like to see a smaller box or even maybe a little larger pictures!The…

Pros
  • Great craft for a rainy day or to fight quarantine blues!!
Cons
  • This is for a gift and it is a little harder than I expected but they are trying it.

Crafty fun in my review

I got this for my niece who is 13 she loves doing crafts, but I thought this was much more for her age. I like that the canvas can be placed on display on her wall. The kids come with 2 different fun pieces, the flamingo and the pineapple. She said it was fun to make and once she got the hang of it, it was easy to create her characters. I liked it got her off the phone and helped her to create and use her brain.

Pros
  • CT2006T
Cons
  • The cardboard pieces require a lot of cutting and trimming, which can be difficult for younger children

My daughter loves all crafts, and this is no exception!

My daughter is 11 years old and she is constantly making something. She can’t sit around and do nothing, and she loves creating things, so crafts of any and all kinds are where she directs her energy right now. So we try to help her find these kinds of things because we think they are a great way for her to exercise and train her mind and help her develop her creativity.There are very few crafts that we have ordered on revain that she hasn’t loved. This was no exception. Even though she is only

Pros
  • Toys & Games
Cons
  • The finished products are not very practical and may end up as clutter in the home

Great gift best in my review

Purchased as a gift. Packaging is very nice and I know I’m going to have an excited little girl on Christmas! That's my feedback.

Pros
  • EASY-TO-FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS: Simply follow the clear directions and push pins into the pre-patterned foam bases and string away.
Cons
  • The cardboard pieces are not thick enough, causing them to bend and warp during the project

Makes a great gift in my review

This craft kit makes 2 string art projects. Instructions are clear and easy to understand. My daughter was easily able to make these string art crafts on her own. The fancy flamingo and cute pineapple were simple to make and decorate with the included glitter pom poms.

Pros
  • Arts & Crafts
Cons
  • The finished products may not be very educational or teach any new skills to children

My niece loves this!

My 10 y/o niece loves this craft set! She needs some things to do and have fun with away from her younger brothers. This was definitely a kit to help her out! She did the flamingo first which looks awesome! Her table however was a diff story as it had lots of feathers and craft accessories all over it. She was excited to do the pineapple, but the holidays came and now she's working on those crafts. Great gift item!

Pros
  • GREAT GIFT: Ann Williams Group’s Craft-tastic Tropical String Art Kit is an exceptional way to stimulate creativity in children, tweens and teens. It makes a festive and fun gift!
Cons
  • The cardboard pieces may not hold up well over time and may deteriorate quickly

This is a fun gift for a girl that is 8 years and older. It says 10+, but I think that an 8-year-old can be trusted with the pins.This is a simplified, easier version of a nail string art, as no hammering of nails into wood is necessary. So you can get through the "boring” part faster and start creating your string art faster.If your crafter didn’t want to make a flamingo or pineapple, they could make a different string art and not use all the accessories that are not usually included with…

Pros
  • I got this for my 11 year old and she loves it. 5 stars.
Cons
  • The finished products are not very durable and can easily fall apart

A unique craft project

I'm the godmother who has bought all the crafty gifts for my 3 goddaughters over the years. They've gotten the sewing ones, the art ones, the clay ones - all the activity projects! The main goal is to "use up" the gift after giving so there's no real storage required. After reading this description, it met all my criteria. It was a great project for a young girl who enjoys a challenge, being creative, and making things. It helps if they like flamingos, but I don't think that's required…

Pros
  • 10 x 2 x 10 inches
Cons
  • The finished products may not be very unique or impressive compared to other crafts

Under 8 will need some help, but cute set!

This craft set is cute -- and includes two animals, which is a nice amount of time for activities in this price point. My daughter is almost 7 and did well with the crafts, though she needed some help figuring out what to do. I imagine the 10+ age range as labeled would be fine to do this solo. Cute activity that ends in a fun decorative piece to keep or give away (my daughter insisted on keeping them for her room!)

Pros
  • Includes two 6 in (15.2 cm) foam canvases, 43 yds (39.3 m) cotton thread, 60 pins, 14 pom poms, 11 feathers, 5 pcs glitter paper, 5 pcs glitter foam, 2 pcs cardstock, 2 pcs tracing paper, 1 pc adhesive, instructions
Cons
  • The finished products may not be very versatile and may not fit with a variety of home decor styles

Looks so cute! on my review.

This kit looks super cute! It is for my granddaughter for Christmas so she hasn’t opened it yet. I think she will love it. She is a flamingo fan!

Pros
  • Pineapple,Tropical,Flamingo
Cons
  • The patterns are not very creative or unique, and may not appeal to all children

Too difficult for a smart adult. adhesive doesn’t stick.

Nope. Bought for my 14 yr old to work on with her 5 yo sister. After working for an hour, they both got frustrated and I tried. We got the string wrapped for the flamingo, but couldn’t get any further. The legs and head won’t stay on, and the double sided tape. I can’t get the paper off. The feathers are a pain to trim, and leave fuzz everywhere. My oldest daughter worked for a half hour trying to untangle the string that immediately snarled. Now we’re all frustrated and this kit is trash…

Pros
  • Ann Williams Group
Cons
  • The craft may not be challenging enough for older children, leading to boredom

Missing Crucial Pieces

Purchased this as a gift and it is missing the outlines as well as the legs/head, eye, etc that are listed in the instructions. Very disappointed. Couldn't find a way to contact the seller, would rate 0 stars if I could.

Pros
  • Tropical String Art Craft Kit
Cons
  • The string colors included in the kit are not very vibrant, leading to lackluster finished products

Challenging but fun for 11yr old

This Craft-tastic String Art Kit was lots of fun! The recommended age is 10+ and it was entertaining yet a bit challenging for my 11 year old niece. -it comes in a thick box with bright images that instantly grabbed her attention and got her excited!-inside it contains a much smaller plastic bag with the supplies. It was all neatly contained and organized.-it took her a few minutes to get the hang of it but once she did she had a great time! We did help her get started though. -we did end up…

Pros
  • 8.1 ounces
Cons
  • The craft requires a lot of precision and attention to detail, making it challenging for children with fine motor skill impairments

Fun Activity best in my review

Bought as a gift. My niece got a different animal designed last year & liked it. Hope she like this flamingo one too. That's my review.

Pros
  • Craft-tastic
Cons
  • The kit does not include any extra materials or string, making it difficult to experiment with different designs

Cute and bright best in my review

Such a cute gift idea for kids who love arts and crafts. I really like the color contrasts between the canvasses and strings.

Pros
  • 2 ON-TREND PATTERNS ON FOAM CANVASES: This tropical take on the best-selling Craft-tastic String Art Kit features a bright flamingo and a cheery pineapple. Kids can even design their own pattern.
Cons
  • The needle included in the kit may not be safe for very young children to use

Fun project, but not too hard.

I bought this for my 11 yr old niece and she loved it! She made me feel good. Opened it right away and got started on it. Was not too hard, she was able to do it on her own too. Was worried about that.

Pros
  • Craft Kits
Cons
  • The adhesive included in the kit is not very strong, causing the string to come loose

Great Gift: my feedback

Gift for my younger sister (13), she loved it! Said it wasn't super difficult, fun to do and a cute end product! Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Perfect for my niece!
Cons
  • The kit only comes with enough materials for two projects, which can be limiting for families with multiple children

Fun for Older Crafty Kids

This is a neat craft kit for kids. The recommended age is 10+, and I would trust that recommendation. Younger kids might find this one too challenging and/or frustrating. The completed projects are really cute. Like it!

Pros
  • Multi
Cons
  • The string included is not long enough to complete both projects without running out
