 A frustrating project for little one Jan 16, 2010
By F. Martin
I purchased this as a project for my 6-year-old granddaughter. The box has a "mosiac by number" printed on it - boxes with numbers in them. The objective is to cover the numbered box with the appropriate color of stick-on. The stick-ons are very low quality. Most of the stick-ons are tiny foam squares, some topped with shiny paper to make them sparkle. They are very small and are placed very close together on the box. It was difficult to separate the foam pieces, peel off the foam backing, and place them properly. Some of the foam stick-ons had no adhesive. We had to use glue dots to place them. There are also some jewel stick-ons that go around the edges of the box. Seven or eight of the jewels had fallen off the plastic backing and were stuck to the inside of the box when I opened it. Some of the jewels lost their silver backing when when we peeled them off the plastic backing sheet, so you could see the number through the jewel when it was placed on the box. We couldn't simply use a different jewel because there aren't enough extras to compensate for the defective ones. We had to use glue dots for those, as well. The silver backing adheres to the glue, so when the silver backing peeled off the jewel, the glue was also still stuck to the plastic backing sheet. We had to be extremely careful in placing the foam stick-ons. The numbers are in boxes so large that the foam stickers barely cover them. There are only a few extras, so there's very little room for error. My granddaughter loves decorating things, but this was very tiring and very frustrating for her. She lost interest very quickly. I ended up doing the box myself. From a distance the box looks okay, but close up, it looks cheap and gaudy.

 nice craft to keep them busy on their own! Jan 11, 2010
By C. Dumais
This is a great little craft. Like paint by number but with puffy stickers. N0 adult help needed. No glue or mess. When she is done working on it for a while we store the stickers inside until she is ready to continue! Love it.

Nana's gift Jan 09, 2011
By Debra Elerath
I bought this box and the butterfly box for my twin granddaughters who are 7 1/2 years old for Christmas this year. We only got to spend one day with them because of travels. After presents were opened, they wanted to get busy on their new boxes. I helped them just a little bit, but they did most of it. It kept their attention. The directions are quite easy to follow. They are color coded. You might have to direct kids with the flat stickies versus the bumpy ones since they are the same colors. Other than that, presto! And they loved having a little treasure box to place on their nightstand. All in all, this was a great gift!

 Fun, but there's a problem... Jan 08, 2011
By E. Knier
My 5 year old loves doing sticker mosaic projects and was thrilled with this, her first 3-D project. It took her a fair amount of time, but she was able to complete the project on her own and really loved doing it. The resulting box is very sparkly and pretty, which is always a hit with a 5 year old girl! My complaint about the product is that the stickers with metallic tops (some of the tiles are metallic and reflective, some are plain colored foam) started losing their top colored pieces before she even had the project finished. After all her work, most of the metallic blue 'tiles' now look white, because the top sheet of colored foil falls right off them and only the sticky white part is left underneath. There aren't enough extra stickers to replace the broken ones, so her box has lots of gummy white blobs throughout the design. That part is disappointing.

 This was a load of fun to put together Feb 08, 2010
By Mrs. Wilson
My daughter and I had a great time assembling the sticky mosaic jewelry box. It's easy enough for a five year old but a lot of fun for an adult to help with. It took a couple hours for the two of us to stick all of the stickers on, and in the end it was very attractive and a decent box to hold a little girl's things.
There were extra stickers in each color, which was very helpful. The only reason it lost one star was that I have been finding those extra little stickers around the house here and there, and I was wondering how well the ones on the box will stay put.
