Our First Boxed Set

Shortly after we got the glow in the dark bucket I headed to Jo-Ann again with another 40% off coupon and got the Wild 'n Wooly 3-D set.  All the beads that come in the boxed sets are mixed together.  I poured them in a shallow disposable container that I had left over from when we gave out Christmas cookies.  We found out quick that picking out each color needed for a project was tedious and time consuming.

 As far as sets go, it is just okay.  It only comes with one large clear pegboard and a bunch of beads with the patterns to make a bunch of neat animals.  However, if I could go back in time, I’d skip this set.  Other sets have more to offer in my opinion.  The only ones we made were the tiger and the Elephant.  Tic Tock (our one year old son) has since ripped up the patterns.   I don’t think we would be doing those projects even if he hadn't ruined some of them. I'm sure we could easily find the patterns again online.  The Perler Bead website has a lot of patterns that you can print off for free.  I know I saw the "Jungle Tree" pattern from this set on there.
