When it comes to shopping for girls who are becoming tweens or teens, Easter can be a bit tricky. Sure, you can grab their favorite chocolate, but how about giving them a craft kit that helps them learn something new? Neat-Oh Linkt Craft Kits are a super fun option for tween girls! Each kit comes with all the supplies needed to create several chainmaille jewelry projects. With 12 different kits to choose from, they can start making cool chainmaille jewelry in just 30 minutes or so. These craft kits are perfect for kids aged 8 and older.
If you never heard of chainmaille it is the ancient craft of linking small metal circles together to form armor or jewelry.
Neat-Oh Linkt® Craft Kits are created by Neat-Oh! International, a specialty toy manufacturing company, and Rebeca Mojica, founder of Blue Buddha Boutique.
Thanks to Rebeca Mojica, with the Neat-Oh Linkt Craft Kits you learn a simple chainmaille technique to make each piece. Rebeca Mojica is an award-winning jewelry artist, instructor and best-selling author who has been designing chainmaille jewelry since 2002.
Neat-Oh Link Craft Kit Hoops & Loops
I recently tried the Neat-Oh Link Craft Kit Hoops & Loops, which allowed me to make several pairs of chainmaille earrings.
The kit comes with tons of rings made from metal and silicone, a special layout tool, a bonus charm project, a list that connects ring colors to personalities, and easy instructions to follow. The Ring Color Personality List makes designing even more exciting because the colors you choose can show off your personality or that of your friends. Plus, you can check out free video tutorials on the Linkt Craft Kits channel.
The metal in the kits is soft enough to shape with your hands, so you won’t need any pliers. The first earrings I created were the coiled ones, and they were super easy to make. All you have to do is open the large hoop ring and slide the rubber rings onto it. I used 12 rubber rings on my large ring, but you can experiment and add more if you want.
I think the kit is really fun and simple to use. It helped me get better at handling objects and improved my hand-eye coordination.
The only downside I noticed with the Neat-Oh Link Craft Kit Hoops & Loops is that the earrings can come apart pretty easily. It seems like the metal hoops might be too soft since they don’t fit together very well. I wish there was a tool included to help close the hoops tightly.
Overall, Neat-Oh Linkt Craft Kits are a great project for beginners, whether you’re a teen or an adult like me who is just starting with chainmaille jewelry making. It feels amazing to see your finished piece of chainmaille jewelry!
You can purchase any of the Neat-Oh Linkt Craft Kits via walmart.ca, or Amazon.ca.
