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 craft as a kid was making the friendship bracelets. I also loved doing paper mache projects. I think I liked it so much because you got messy when placing the paper in the glue mixture. My children now love just about any craft we do. I would have to say the biggest hit this summer has been painting. My three year old gets up every morning asking to paint!

When I was a child, my favorite crafts were using those plastic strings to make keychains, and little animals out of them, also making hand woven type pot holders. My kids love using the little plastic beads, that you make into shapes and have to iron them.
Sara
I loved cross- stitching and sewing! I would sew scrunchies for me and my friends out of my Mom’s scrap material.
