I did. My mom and grandma never turned them down when I gave them as Christmas presents, they had drawers full.

I got as far as weaving the elastic strips and then gave up. I have attention issues, and I think those potholders are ugly. My mom and grandma didn't cook unless it was crack so they would've just ended up in the garbage anyway.

Well, I liked making them at that age. You will probably have to set her down and show her how it is done, but she should catch on. And I don't think it is boring at all. I'm only 18 and I would have rather made potholders than play with most other things when I was that age!

LOL...I loved making those!! Last Christmas I bought my daughter the loom kit, and now she is as hooked as I was. I warned my mom the other day that those lovely pot holders that I used to make, well they are back! I think that my daughter has mad enough for everyone in our family to have 2 or 3 each.
ahhhh...the memories of childhood!

Yes. I made them when I was about 8 and went door to door and sold them 2 for a quarter. That was 52 years ago!!! I got some for Christmas from my granddaughter a couple of years ago. My first "loom" was metal.

I myself have not made one complete one, but my mother has made many, they last a lot longer than the store bought ones, that is if they make the loom like they used to.

Oh my goodness. My grandma and mom used to help me make them. We always used such horrible color combinations though. Me and my sister were young though so no one minded.

lol yes. In fact, I bought the kit last year so that I could relive my childhood a little with my stepdaughter.

Yes, and I remember going door-to-door and selling them for 10 cents each...

I think my mom still has a few of them left.
