Klutz Fashion Forms Craft Kit

I bought this for my fourth and fifth grade nieces. They LOVE it and I LOVE making things with them! It was the only gift they actually played with on Christmas day. Fun patterns, easy to follow directions. Great supplies. The glue is fabulous. You just need a microscopic drop and it holds the paper without having to hold the paper together for minutes at a time to dry. It is a perfect mix of imagination and reality. WONDERFUL product!

Not impressed. Daughter wanted real material.

We love this kit! Durable plastic pattern pieces with darts are used to trace and cut out panels from included beautiful patterned papers, which are then assembled with paper glue to make tiny 3-D paper women's fashion dresses. My eight year old worked diligently for half a day, mostly unaided, and made three really charming dresses on the first day. From our experience your kid will need patience, high fine motor skills, basic 3rd grade reading skills to do this without adult supervision. The styles in the kit are very classic and simple, the silhouettes provided are somewhat retro. With 18 pattern pieces and a stencil you get a pencil skirt, various fitted bodices and sleeves, an A-line skirt and a ballgown skirt that can all be combined endlessly. There is also a long coat, two styles of high heeled shoes and a couple of purses that can be made. The accompanying book of instructions and ideas is wonderfully designed. The patterns are too big for Barbie type dolls but seem perfect to fit the Tonner Little Miss Matched dolls, we will probably try using these cute little patterns to make some fabric dresses next!

Just isn't quite right; take the dexterity and interest of an older child since you can't really "use" them; but it's not really that much fun for an older child

Gave this to my daughter and she loves it! Teaches her how to make clothes and use her artistic imagination. Sometimes she needs help figuring out the instructions but that just give us bonding time when we work together. Can't wait to take it to the next level and use actual cloth.

great

My 8 yo daughter saw this at the store and wanted it so bad, but I didn't want to pay $25 for it and find out she doesn't like it. Found it on Amazon for $20. To my surprise my daughter absolutely loves it! She plays with it all the time. I don't think she has ever has a "toy" that she has used so much. Great buy even for the cost.

To be honest..I feel that I didnt quite umderstand what I ordered because it was not what I thought it was. This book teaches you how to create clothes out of paper..scrapbooking and origami. Oh well..next t

L'ho acquistato per mia moglie e non appena è arrivato si è messa subito al lavoro, tutta contenta e desiderosa di creare! Sono venuti fuori dei bellissimi abitini per la Barbie!.....e oensare che l'ha voluto con la scusa di farlo usare a nostra figlia!

The video was taken by my daughter and now she is enjoying makeing dresses with it! I thank the owner for giving my daughter a wonderful gift!

My daughter loves it

Ok, I bought one for my niece and one for me! This is a great present for a budding fashion designer, the pattern stencils make it very easy to get your head around garment construction! It teaches in a fun way about how flat objects can be created into 3d objects and also helps with positioning the stencils on the patterns. My niece is only 8 so I think this is something we can do together, as it might be difficult for her to do on her own. The papers are great, with on trend combinations as lots of accessories to choose from. I think some of the design examples might be achievable for a teen but can be a younger person with a bit of help. While it might seem expensive, it really is great value as the stencils can be used over and over again. I bought this because I had purchased the fashion designer for the school library - it was hugely popular.

Beautiful made and with nice details.
