Baker Ross Crafts - Review!!

I was recently asked if I would like to join the Baker Ross bloggers network.....In case you didn't know who Baker Ross are, they sell a lot of craft goodies and are one of the leading suppliers of arts & crafts to schools, playgroups and organisations in the UK....

Baker Ross sent us a box of goodies last week and the kids and I had a great time with the contents....

First up we did the Gnome Wooden Windchimes which are £3.49 for four and we used the Acrylic Deco Pens to colour them in which cost £9.99 for 5 pens which at first I thought was expensive...

I hadn't seen pens like these before....Full of water-based acrylic paint. We were a bit baffled when we tried to use them and nothing came out until we gave them a shake and pressed on the nib....They were lovely to use....Painting but without the mess of the paint....These are something I will definitely use and buy in the future....I understand the price now....They can be used on wood, porcelain, glass and paper...

Ellie had great fun colouring in the gnomes....I did one too and really enjoyed it....They are very cute and now we just need to find somewhere to hang them....

By the time Becky had got in from school we were ready to start on the next activity which was the Rainbow lacing decoration kit....

Younger children may find this a bit fiddly but Becky did it with no help at all and Ellie only needed a little help tying the knots....They both found it great fun and they now have the rainbows hanging in their bedroom....These are so pretty and very cute.

Finally we tried out the Wooden Weaving Frame Kits which cost £3.49...In each kit you get 4 different frames, a square, circle, triangle and hexagon and strands of yarn.....

 The girls had fun doing this but we did find the wool was fraying and snapped a couple of times when it was going through the wood....It was a good activity which kept them busy for a little while but not our favourite.....

These kits and gave us an hour or so of fun and kept the girls off their computers, tablets and away from the TV which is always a good thing....

We still have a couple of things left to use....The sticky jewels, little mini bags and the alien thingies with googly eyes....We will get around to using them...

At a few pound for a set of 4 things these would be ideal for a rainy day activity or for birthday parties....We are very happy to be part of the Baker Ross Blogger Network!

  

I was sent these products free of charge for the purpose of this review....This is my honest review....All thoughts and opinions are my own!!
