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!

I loved to do wood burning. I was TERRIBLE at it, but it smelled so great!

I wasn’t a very crafty child, but during summer day camp I remember making ceramics there was a putty that had to poured into a mold and it had to dry once it dried we took it out of the mold and painted it. I remember giving my mom and grandmother prayer hands and butterflies. My daughter is very blessed to have a grandma and two aunts that are very crafty. One of her aunts makes jewelry, and the other aunt crochets hats, and makes quilts, and purses, and her grandma makes quilts. So I pretend she will love to make jewelry and purses.

I used to love to watch my mom crochet although I never fully got the hang of it. I could do one straight line but never understood how to connect them. My daughters are fully into drawing, all 3 of them. With some paper and pencils they crate the most beautful masterpieces.
