Crafty Bands For Traveling Kids

Recently we went on a family vacation. We were going to be traveling through some larger airports, and going to Disney World. 

 The worrier that I am, I wanted our two older girls to have our phone numbers where they could easily find them, should we get separated. In comes crafty bands! 

 This was a quick and easy way to make something that was cute and that they would want to wear, without my having the worry that it would get caught on something and break, as bead and string bracelets so often do. 

 I started out by printing the phone numbers on just basic white cardstock. Then using my crafty bands tool and epoxies, made quick work of putting the charms together.

Summer Fun with Crafty Bands

It’s summer and although I’ve planned some great activities for my kiddos, there’s times when they’re just nothing to do (or so they say). So to keep my daughter from getting bored, I busted out the Crafty bands kit from Epiphany Crafts and had her make some friendship bracelets for her and three of her dear friends.



I showed her how to punch out the paper and add the bubble accent to the charms. After a couple of tries with my help, she went to town with it and created these four bracelets.

I love how easy this project was. My 7 year old did pretty much everything by herself. The only thing that I had to help her with is snapping the charms together on the bands.


This will be a great craft for summer or for when you have slumber parties. I definitely recommend the Epiphany Crafts Crafty Bands for the budding crafters out there.


Supplies Used: Crafty Bands starter kit Pattern Paper Adhesive dots

Happy Creating,
Grace

Craft a Disney Princess Crafty Band

Crafty Bands
  Hi! This is Jennie and today I have a Crafty Bands project using the package of some Disney Princess products. My daughter loves the Princesses so when I got her a few things I measured their faces on the Crafty Bands Bubble Caps and they fit perfectly! 

You may notice that Snow White's face is already missing but that is because I used it with my Epiphany Crafts Tools on this scrapbook layout. If you can't get to some of them just make some cuts to get to them but don't cut too much!!

 She loved making her Princess Band!! If you are planning to make these for a party you can use the packaging of the party supplies for your Bubble Caps since, these brands tend to put the face on the character many times on the package.Crafty Bands11
