Magic Wizard Wand Making Kit DIY Craft Set for Kids Adult Birthday Party Gift Make Your Own Wands 45-Piece

highly recommend this product! def a hit at my sons party. recommend doing the clay a day or two before - it won't dry in time for it to be painted. we made all the designs on the picture and looked some up online. make sure to wet the wands for the clay to stick. we didn't use hot glue. kids had a blast painting them on the day of the party and they dried quickly in front of a fan in a warm room. they were playing with them an hour later or doing paint touchups. SO fun! Love the colors in this kit too - very authentic.

Bought this wand kit for my daughters birthday. The kit came with 8 wants enough clay for 8 kids to use and plenty of paint. The wands came out great and the kids loved them. They were easy to do and relatively mess free with the use of a tablecloth on our table. They dried pretty quick and did not stain the kids hands. Would definitely buy again.

Great kit! Easy to use. We used the provided clay and hot glue. Kit was fun to use. Paints were nice. Be careful when opening the paint seal for the first time as it may splatter. Nice quality wand blanks. Kit came quickly.

This kit was a lot of fun! It contains everything that is needed -- sticks, modeling-clay/modeling-foam, paint, and paint brushes. The image shows the wand that I made using the provided materials. I had some leftover foam/modeling-clay material, so I made the little snake with the leftovers. The pictures that come with the kit show finely detailed spirals on some of the wands, but when we tried to make details that small using the provided foam/modeling-clay material we couldn't get them to stay attached to the wooden sticks. The instructions show that hot glue can be used to create fine details (or even all of the details); I believe the smallest details in their sample images were probably made using the hot glue method rather than the foam/modeling-clay method. Obviously small children can't be given hot glue guns and a large group at a party cannot safely use hot glue guns all at the same time; so the foam/modeling-clay is the way to go. (Hot glue and hot glue guns are not provided in the kit.) The provided paint is acrylic; that's good because it gives nice colors and the paint brushes can be cleaned up with water -- but that could be bad because if it gets on clothes it has to be washed out immediately. So if if this was to be used at a party with little kids, having appropriate "art clothes" or smocks or something would be appropriate. We allowed the foam/modeling-clay on our wands (and my snake) to dry/cure overnight before painting; I do not know what the minimum time would be -- but one could not paint immediately after forming the shapes. I formed the foam/modeling-clay by hand and then used a paint brush handle to press details into the material. I applied the main layer of paint one day and then came back and added details and touch-ups on a second day (obviously that could not be done during a party). Wands covered in fresh paint cannot be transported; having a place for them to dry overnight is important. This deserves a lot of stars because it really is a full kit and really is a LOT of fun. I can't give it 5/5 stars because the kit gives the impression that the sample wand images on the packaging could be duplicated by a group of children during the duration of a child's birthday party without ruining anyone's clothes -- that's misleading. So long as people have a realistic understanding of what the materials can do, this is an amazing kit. At some point, I will buy this again.

Seven year old was excited to receive as birthday gift. I wasn't present when she made her wands, but thinking anyone under ten would need adult supervision and help. A fun craft.

We bought this product as a gift for my son before going to universal studios. He loves Harry Potter and this set let him and friends create wands however they wanted. It takes a couple days for the materials to dry. Completed wands have held up to imaginative play well

My kid loves this kit and the ability to create any kind of wand he can think of. Also loved the many colors of paint that are consistent with the popular wand colors. All around great product. Had to buy a second kit because my kid ended up building a wand for all his favorite witches and wizards. Great product and reasonably priced.

Not for young children. A lot of design choices and hands on DIY crast.

If you are a Harry Potter fan, this was a great activity to do while watching the movies. I would definitely reorder this.

So fun for a birthday party !!!!Did that for my daughter's 6th birthday and all the kids (and the parents!) Loved it !The instructions says to use a glue gun but you really don't need to. The dough sticks very well and we painted right away .Very happy about my purchase !
