Very cute bag, assembly takes time and patience

We received the Cool Maker, Sweetheart Handbag Kit, from Butterly / Spin Master to try.
It came at just the right time for Valentine's day. My 9 year old son was very excited to make something this cute and special for his sister for Valentine’s day.
It comes with all the pieces you need in the box. Putting the bag together wasn't difficult but the strap and the tiny attachment part was definitely challenging even for an adult. The little attachment straight arrow strings are very short and fragile. It is tricky to push through the holes and when you pull on them to make it fit it gets ripped easily.I am not sure how it will hold up at the strap attachments over time, a snap or clip might have been easier and more durable than the string thing. It took us almost 3 hours to finish it. Although it said ages 6 and up he needed lots of help with the small parts.
That said, the finished bag is really cute and a nice heart shaped that little girls are absolutely adorable with soft pink colors, sparkly stone stickers and attachments. Its small , child-friendly size make it easy to wear and perfect for little everyday treasures like sunglasses and lip balms.
The best part was to see my son wrapping it and giving it to his sister for Valentine’s day. She loved it and that moment made the whole craft feel special and worth the effort.
A sweet idea with a few small design challenges but still a lovely activity overall.
This experience definitely makes me more interested in exploring additional Spin Master toys.

Crafts that make you think

My 9 year old and I worked this project together. The quality was great and it was nice to have extra pieces just incase. She really enjoyed it. At times it was a little trick so I did help her. I do think because it challenged her at times it made her feel very proud to finish it. She is excited for her new purse and what she can put in it. We enjoy Spin Master toys as a family and will continue to do so.

Was Not A Fan!

Did not enjoy this product. It hurts your fingers and the material breaks easily. Was not a fan of the size and design. We would be interested in more durable toys.

Great craft

My daughter was really excited to build her own purse, instructions were super detailed and easy to follow even for a 6 year old. A good craft to keep her busy for a while, hopefully this sparks a love for sewing for her!

Good activity for kids and parents

My daughter was very excited to make this! It is very good quality. They could have provided a plastic tool to put the pieces through the tiny slots but tweezers made it possible. It was definitely fun and i can see her using the purse for enough time that it would make it worth it!

Kept my kiddo busy for 2hrs!

My 7 yo daughter was thrilled with this craft set. From the minute she opened the box she was hooked. The instructions only have photos, no words, which could be improved but we were able to follow along. A few pieces of the faux leather snapped when my daughter applied too much force. I was happy it kept her engaged for 2hrs and she was happy with her new creation that seems relatively sturdy. Would make a great gift for a little girl!

Cute heart shaped purse kite

I received this cute heart kit purse. I literally like that alot but I don’t have daughters i only have 3 boys so I wasn’t expecting a girlie toy but anyways one of my boys was very excited to see that and liked it alot but as its a girlie toy so he’s ready to gift that to his cousin sister

Cool Maker, Sweetheart

My daughter loves the pink color and the heart design. The right size and the material. Everything looks great. When a product is made by children's hands, it has more value for them and they learn a practical task. I will recommend this product to everyone. I am sure the children will love it. Thank you for your wonderful bag.
