Not just for kids!!
Okay, I'm 30, and I was looking in the childrens' section for books for my friend's kids, and I fell in love with these!! The fairies are so easy to make, and so adorable, that I couldn't resist. And I think it's great that this book was written by a 13-year old girl! Good for her! I just love fairies, unicorns, dragons, etc. and my adult friends have loved getting these as little surprises!

Fun for big people and little people, too!
I'm 31. My sister is 34. We're grown ups. But we're hooked! It all started when I found this kit in the bookstore and it looked like fun. Made a few -- it was so easy and super cool. Showed it to my sister, and we made petal people all day. (I ended up buying her her own kit so she could leave mine alone.) I have been scouring the craft shops for silk flowers to support my "habit"! Also tried experimenting with bigger floral wire to make bigger "people". Needless to say, I'm hooked. The instructions are clear, they're easy to make. I've made some with kids, no problem. Each design is unique and you can make them as simple or complex as you like. And making one doesn't take all day -- you can have a 20 minute project or a 2 hour project. I've been decorating gifts with a little "person" -- that's been very well received and it makes the gift stand out in a crowd. A wonderfully creative kit!

HALLELUJAH!!!!
I got this book at the FAO SHUWRAZ toy store at Caesar Palace in Las Vegas yesterday. I'm 12 years old, and I was there for vacation with my friend, brother, and some parents. I got kind of bored, so I walked around and randomly walked to this place on the second floor where they were selling KLutz crafts and books. Then my eyes fell on this book. I immeadiately began to read it. I LOVED IT! The fairies were adorable, and I've loved fairies ever since I was little. I got my mom to buy this for me, and today, I tried to make my first fairy. I thought it was going to be hard, but it turned out great and extremely cute! I recommend this craft for anyone who enjoys creating things and loves fantasy creatures, especially fairies.
