  • Only for kids with adult assistance
Style: Heart Light
My 8 year old absolutely loved this project! And the results in my picture speaks for itself. After reading some of the other reviews, results definitely vary upon crafting experience. The directions were thorough enough, though there were a few things that could have been explained better. It was a very straightforward and simple project that only took about 20 minutes aside from drying time. We put down a plastic garbage bag on the table so we could set down the balloon while wrapping or lay out the two feet or so of the gooey string segment to be wrapped. Childeren cannot easily understand that the gaps need to be filled in, so that the lantern will be balanced with proper support, and thats where an adults assistance comes in handy. Once dry, it was very easy to separate the balloon from the string before pulling it out. I slipped some scissors part way inside and cut the balloon up into a few pieces, so as to not damage the delicate string or distort the shape when pulling the balloon out. My only complaint is that I had to use about 4oz more of white glue that I had on hand, as what was provided was not enough to easily coat both the ball and spool of string. If our glow in the dark string came on a cardboard card as stated and shown instead of a large plastic spool, we would not have needed the extra glue. Half of the extra glue went to waste because the of the bulkyness of the plastic spool, rather than the cardboard card it was supposed to be wrapped around. Great project and great price for everything you get! And the finished product is adorable! ... show more

  • Difficult project and requires assistance
Style: Heart Light
Very cute project. My 8 year old daughter needed my help and even still, it was extremely difficult. The glue was very thick and it was hard to squeeze out of the bottle. I don’t know if it was just old or if it was supposed to be thick and goopy. Needs an extra pair of gloves which was not provided. Very messy. I think we needed more glue than what as provided. Allow it to dry overnight and make sure all the strings have adequate glue. I used a paper bowl and rolled the yarn into the glue instead of using a bag which was not provided and I had to spread the thick glue over it several times during the process of unrolling. The string lights go in at the very end of the project (which was not noted in the steps). The yarn and glue sticks to the balloon so you have to pop the balloon and take your time poking through the holes to unstick the balloon and then you can pull it out. Overall, this project was difficult and required an adult to assist a younger child. It came out really nice except a lot of the glue dried up between the strings and will need to be tediously peeled off. ... show more

  • It’s ok……
Style: Heart Light
I gave this to a friend and helped make it at her house (no picture because it’s at her house) it worked, and we did it on our own (no adult assistance needed) it was just us (three teens) and it worked, my only complaint was how messy it was (glue and stuff everywhere) still a fun project that leaves me with fun memories. Would only recommend for teens though, and not for children under 10 for the simple reason of all these complaints “I had to help my child” or “adults needed” so that’s my personal review and I hope it helps you with your purchase of this product. ... show more

  • It’s fun but difficult
Style: Heart Light
It was a. Kind of difficult project. It does not come with a very much clue but this was a really fun project and I enjoyed it. I wish it came with more lights and more twist ties. And what I did is I ran out of yarn because I forgot to put the tassel at the bottom before wrapping the heart with yarn and I had to use a different color yarn that I had my closet and I tied the battery box to the tassel and it worked out really fine. It’s a super messy project. We bought one from Amazon and I tried it out and it did not work out. So we returned it and got a different one well the same one but another one and this one worked really well. When you have finished it and when it’s all dried I recommend cutting The very bottom a teeny snip and using the point of a pencil to shove under the yarn and get the balloon out from the yarn. Be very careful about doing this. Also the battery box cover is really pretty and it looks really well in my room. At night when it shines against the wall it looks super cool because the yarn shines on the wall and makes it look like there’s something on your o be very careful about doing this.
