Ooly Glow Buddies 28-Piece DIY Shrinking Art Kit for Kids

Glow with Creativity: Ooly Glow Buddies DIY Shrinking Art Kit

Turn color into wearable mini art with this 28-piece kit from Ooly. Kids color pre-cut charms, slide them into a small oven, and watch them shrink into pocket-sized keepsakes that glow in the dark. The set emphasizes a tidy, no-mess experience—every charm is pre-cut, and the pieces are made from lightweight, durable plastic that’s easy for small hands to manage. The result is tactile delight: smooth edges, crisp color, and a satisfying glow when the lights go down.

Beyond a quick craft, Glow Buddies invites kids to experiment with color stories and personal style. The glow element adds a subtle magic in dim rooms, turning a simple charm into a night-ready accessory you can wear on a bag, a zipper pull, or a keychain. It’s a small creative project that offers visible results in minutes and sparks conversations about color combinations and design choices.

What’s inside

• 28 high-quality pieces: 20 glow-in-the-dark charms (pre-cut) plus 5 colorful ball chains and 3 cords in blue, yellow, and red
• Lightweight, durable plastic charms with designs like dragon, planet, butterfly, and frog
• No fuss — pre-cut shapes so you don’t need scissors
• Ready in minutes: color, bake for 1-3 minutes, then finalize with a cord or chain
• Versatile results: create keychains, backpack charms, zipper pulls, or gifts to trade with friends

How you transform a flat charm into a tiny glowing piece is simple. Color with pencils or markers, slide the pre-cut charm onto a parchment-lined tray, bake briefly in a standard oven, then thread onto one of the cords or ball chains to complete your glow-bright accessory.
