The new book is called Glossy Bands and they have a great description of it:
"Chances are good that you’ve never seen anything quite like a Glossy Band. Simply take our special, non-toxic, acrylic gel and squeeze out dots of color following the patterns in our book. Then use the swirling stick to make fancy designs. Once the bracelet is dry, wrap it around your wrist, and you’ve made your first Glossy Band: a beautiful, durable, completely wearable piece of art. Glossy Bands comes with 4 colors of gel, clear plastic work surface, swirling sticks, and Klutz clear instructions for tons of bracelet designs."

I haven't read any of them, but I'm definitely going to have to buy "Good Growing". I loved growing things when I was a kiddo (who am I kidding? now too!!), and I'd love to pass that on to my son.

My absolute FAVE book is "Watercolor: for the Artistically Undiscovered." I have this book, and took it with me on a vacation to the beach! I had so much fun, I absolutely LOVED it!! Totally recommend it to anyone who might even THINK they would want to ever watercolor paint in their life!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun summer idea! Many of the klutz books would be great for roadtrips! My girls would love "The Only Coloring, Puzzle, Game, Dot-to Dot Activity Book You'll Ever Need" book. It sounds like a good way to kill 7 hours in the backseat of the car!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the give away!

ReplyDeleteOh, please please please!

I'd love to get the BristleBots or DIY Pirate Ship ones for the little boy in my life, though!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fun giveaway!

ReplyDeleteWow, I would have loved the Glossy Band book as a kid.. I know someone who would just love it also, and it's the prefect gift for her.. thanks for this chance to win!

I have always loved the Friendship Bracelet book. It brings back so many good memories for me. I still make those bracelets when I can find a moment of spare time.
ReplyDeleteThe glossy bands looks like so much fun to do with my girls. My favorite, however, would be the balloon bending. I always wanted to learn how to make cute animals out of the balloons. One problem, though, I am terrified of hearing balloons pop.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is super simple sewing! What a great giveaway!!!
ReplyDeleteMy girls would love the glossy bands and with an upcoming move it would be a great distraction for them.
ReplyDeleteI love the balloon art book. Who doesn't love having an animal balloon?
ReplyDeleteMy granddaughter would love the Doodle Journal Book and I would too.

ReplyDeleteSonyaw1967@yahoo.com
Oh, I am loving the Simple Sewing book! My daughter wishes she could sew with me all the time but she's 5! Maybe she can now...
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was their juggling book. I learned so much about coordination and juggling.....and in a very short amount of time!
ReplyDeleteThey have the best books, it's so hard to narrow it down. I've been coveting the "create anything with clay" book for a while now, so I'll say that one.
ReplyDeleteWe have several Klutz books. One of my favorite is the hair braiding. I think the balloon twisting would be tons of fun for the kids.
ReplyDeleteBut this glossy band book would knock my girls sock off!
My pick would be the loopy potholders book as I use to make them when I was young and I know my three girls would love them.!
ReplyDeleteIt has to be the loopy potholders as I made them when I was little and my girls would love to do them.
ReplyDeletemy son loves the melty beads

ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of these books, but I think the Good Growing book looks fantastic, I'd love to use it with my daughter when she's a little older.
ReplyDeleteI love Klutz books (does that mean I officially qualify AS a klutz??). All of my kiddos would love the Animation one and my DD would also love either the Glossy Band or Friendship Bracelet one.

I always loved Klutz books when I was younger, and now I'm looking forward to sharing some with my niece. She'll have to get a little bit older for most of them, but I think I'd have fun with the balloon twisting one - she has a thing for balloon animals right now :)

I really like the friendship bracelet book. It reminds me of when I used to make bracelets with my friends in my elementary class. My daughter & I have been getting into making bracelets lately.
