Rainbow Loom

This is a new popular fad that is going around.  They are so popular even boys are enjoying them.  I got one for Christmas for Payton.  Well I actually bought the fake one, which basically broke within the first day.  Word from the wise, although the Rainbow loom is expensive, it's worth it to get instead of the cheap ones.  I found a some cheap elastics at the dollarstore, we tried them tonight and they work as well as the regular loom ones.  I found the loom ones are more pliable, they are easier to manipulate.  But the cheap ones work just as well.

Also at the dollarstore today we found a case to put them in.  It is actually a storage case for screws and nails, but works just as well for the elastics.

 Payton loves it and it is so much easier to use then the ziplock containers we did have them in.

Here are some of the bracelets we've made so far.

 So much fun and very addictive.

 Here is a link to the girl she does wonderful tutorials.  She does many other things as well check her out.  I found she's one of the best tutorials and very easy to follow.

Payton has made many things, some of them are a minion, flowers, hearts, turtle and she tried a tuxedo; but had a bit of a hard time with it; she'll try again soon.

Rainbow loom if you're not in on the fad come to the darkside, you'll get a nice bracelet!
