This look book of designs is packed with creatively crafted ideas on all the ways you can marry up snaps with fabric and other found objects for one-of-a-kind accessories.

     ace and friends thoughts

    The SmartLab Toys Snap Fashion Jewelry Studio was an enjoyable craftin' good time for *a*. The included book was filled with creative ideas and easy to follow instructions. *a* (who is 8) found the instructions a bit confusing at first, but with some assistance and guidance, she was able to create a fabric ring with ease. *a* loaded the snap maker, pushed it down, completed the snap and added it to the top of the included ring.


    load.
    push.
    complete.


    the finished FABULOUS ring.
    Final thoughts: We had a great time creating jewelry and are hoping they will eventually release a refill kit. Overall it was a delightfully crafty time! Next up, a necklace....
