Our home is filled with many art projects and supplies. Our daughter, who is 10, is very creative and when she saw the Super Beads from Zirrly arrive in the mail, she was super excited. She couldn't believe we were given this set to review. She couldn't wait to get started on her 3D Animals set. I would guess it took her all of 15 minutes to get it out and began to put it together.
Super Beads are similar to the traditional fuse beads that are very popular only these have a few very awesome improvements. I didn't have to worry about my daughter getting burned with the iron or making a mess with glue. This set comes with 2 boards that fit the beads as you create the animal. They do not slide around as you work. It also contains all the beads you need and the instructions to complete the projects. The kit also has a water spray bottle, a work tray and a design tool that helps you remove the fused beads from the boards.
The instructions were simple and easy to follow. You begin by placing the pattern card under the board you will be using. Grab the beads that match the colors you need and begin adding them to the board. Once you have the beads in place, you will spray the beads with your water spray bottle, being careful not to get the beads too wet. A few spritzes should do the job. After you allow the beads to dry (usually takes about 45 minutes or so) you can removed them with the design tool that is included and finish putting your creation together. Just spritz each piece as you place them where they belong according to your instructions. The finished product is so cute. This one is the deer. If your beads should ever come apart, it is a simple fix. Just spray them with water and let dry. How cool is that?
Hope decided to save her second project for a day when she needed something fun to do. It didn't take long for her to get it out and begin working on it. This little 3D dog was even cuter than the deer. I wanted to give you a closer look at the project so these photos are close ups of the beads. You can see the patterns under the boards then at the end we placed the patterns beside the board that corresponded with them.
If you wonder could it be that easy? I will say YES! You can let your elementary aged child work on these crafts on their own. No worries with these beads. Its just place, water, remove and place the beads together with more water to create these little beaded animals. No heat or glue needed here. Just fun, fun, and more fun.
