The finished product is about 12 inches tall, and whether it is the bear, dog, unicorn, hearts, or star kit, it adds magic to any room.
WHY WE LOVE IT
Parents often struggle to find creative activities for tweens and teens that are both engaging and mess-free. Build-Your-Own Prismic 3D Puzzle Lanterns offer a refreshing alternative to traditional brick building, allowing teens and adults to unleash their creativity while developing fine motor skills and focus. Plus, once completed, this multi-faceted 3D lantern makes for stunning room decor that anyone would be proud to display.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
While the Build-Your-Own Prismic 3D Puzzle Lanterns offer a rewarding crafting experience, it’s important to note that assembly may require patience and precision. Each kit has different levels of complexity, with the animal shapes being the most complex builds. Each kit takes about two to five hours to complete, so it is best to build in a space that allows for the time it takes to complete it. Videos are available online walking kids through a more thorough “how to” for each kit. Additionally, the USB-powered LED lights will require an additional USB power adaptor.
PERFECT FOR
Teens and adults looking for a challenging and rewarding DIY project; craft enthusiasts; anyone who loves shimmer and sparkle.
