Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting 24-hour giveaways at 8 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET to give you plenty of chances to win!
Looking for a fun, summer project to do with the kids? KLUTZ books always have some great options, like this new KLUTZ Glossy Bands book. The Klutz Glossy Bands book comes with everything you need to create beautiful, stretchy bracelets to share with your friends. Plus you can tailor the designs to your child's skill level -- from a simple two-color dot bracelet to a more complicated four-color flower bracelet.
If your child is into the Silly Bandz craze, he or she is sure to love making Glossy Bands! The book comes with enough gel to make 14 bracelets, so this should provide several rainy days' worth of fun. Though it's not demonstrated in the book, they also mention that you can make rings using the same techniques, so I'd imagine you could stretch it even further this way.
Five lucky Deal Seeking Mom readers will each win a copy of the Klutz Glossy Bands book with 4 colors of gel, clear plastic work surface, swirling sticks, and Klutz clear instructions for tons of bracelet designs!

My favorite thing to do as I child was write letters and create my own envelopes. Today my kids love to use gliter glue and goggly eyes.
I liked to color. My kids like to use their imagination with almost anything they can find!
I never got obsessed with any crafts as a kid, but did some latch hook, friendship bracelets, watercolor and who knows what else...

My favorite was shaving old crayons and melting them with some wax paper and an iron onto a color sheet,with mom's help of course...
We didn't do many crafts as a kid, but I used to pretend to sew (my mom taught home economics).

My favorite craft as a child was latch hook kits. I loved seeing all the little pieces of yarn come together and make an awesome picture. My aunt would hang them when I was done, she did the more difficult ones and got me started with them.
