Latest Kids Project

March 24, 2007 by Tsoniki 20 Comments

A couple of weeks ago we stopped by the craft store and grabbed a couple of Klutz kits. I waver between thinking they are a great deal because they have everything you will need to complete the project and thinking they are expensive. And yes, that’s the coupon loving, clearance shopping part of me talking!

Anyway, we bought the potholder kit and finally opened it up. Alice loves it!

Starting out….

Five rows of weaving and she’s got it!

And this one is done.

She loves it so much she wanted to do more. There is a project in the book that had you make two potholders and then stitch them together to make a purse.

Moving right along…

And in other kid accomplishments – Alice learned how to tie her shoes by herself! This was the first day she did it.

    I remember when all Alice wanted to do was cut paper.

    She is so proud of learning to tie her shoes! She does it several times a day if possible. ๐Ÿ˜€

    I just had a flashback of creating the same type of potholder with my mom! I didn’t know that they even made those kits anymore. I’ll have to try it with my own daughter. Thanks for sharing!

    I made one as a kid too – and it sat in my room on a shelf for years because I lost the directions and didn’t know how to finish it! LOL

    My daughter loves these kits too. She begged me ti use her beautiful potholders the day she completed them and needless to say I found out they were purely decorative! The price paid for art. ๐Ÿ™‚

    My boys each have their own loom to weave these on and they love to make them for gifts!

    Woohoo for tying your own shoes, that’s a tough accomplishment for kids these days with all the self typing shoes you find in the kids section!
