Brit+Co has changed my life, and if you are a regular reader of
South North South, you have indeed seen many photos of the Brit Kits. This past spring and fall I participated in the
Brit Kit Co-Op and had small DIY parties. At the DIY parties we were each given a
Brit Kit to make and share with the Brit+Co team and give feedback on whether we loved the kit, which every kit we loved! Recently I have received other Brit Kits throughout the last few months to work with and here is a recap of those kits.
The Rhinestone
Wrap Bracelets were a BLAST! The Brit Kit came with a gold chain, rhinestone chain, and gunmetal chain. With that you were to thread the chains together with the rhinestones and finish it off with a clasp and jump ring. The kit came with everything you would need to create this one-of-a-kind bracelet, even the needle-nose pliers! You can get
this kit for $24.99 at the Brit+Co site now!
Another kit is the State-Shaped Memo Board. With this Brit Kit you receive Cork Boards, an X-acto Knife, Paint, Painter's Tape, and also a free download of the state
templates here. You get everything you need to create a unique and personal memo board to use at home, or at the office. I ended up making Arkansas and Oregon, and using the three cork board to make a plus sign. You can get
this kit now at the Brit+Co site for under $25.
Unfortunately, we had a power-outage here in the Willamette Valley the night I was set to have my Brit-Kit Co-Op party, so plans took a different turn. I had everyone take their kits home and then send me photos of their finished projects.

Velcro Brand® also supplied the Velcro needed to make the travel cases.
So thank you Velcro!

And the gold nail polish that comes in the kit was a big hit too! What else to do in a power-outage? Paint your nails, of course!
Another kit was the
Air Plant String Art kit. This kit came with a wooden board, hemp twine, nails, and three air plants. The key was to nail the nails into a fun design and add the string to make it fun. Once the string was attached to the nails, you simply place the air plants around the board between the string.
Air plants are easy to keep alive, and string art is one of the fastest growing DIYs out there right now. I have my finished piece hanging in my shower. It's so fun to look at everyday.
October's kit was a good one too! The Clay Candle Holders kit was such a fun DIY to do right before Halloween. I love working with polymer clay, so this kit was perfect! The kit comes with three different colors of polymer clay, three glass tea light holders, sucker sticks, and the tea light candles to place in the finished product. Such a fun kit to do, and it brightest up any room.
November brought about Oreo Turkey Pops! How cute are these?
The kit came with everything you need, and then some, to make these fun Turkeys. This kit was such a blast for my son to help make too! The kit came with Wilton Candy Melts in chocolate, Oreo's, Caramels, Candy Eyeballs, Fruit Slices, Piping Bag, Sucker Sticks, Small Orange Sprinkles, Red Heart-Shaped Sprinkles, and a Decorating tip.
And finally December's kit. This Brit Kit came in the form of a Brit Kit Co-Op party and boy was it a blast! Everything came for each party-goer to make their very own
Giant Decorative Ornament.
Food was set for a night of fun and DIY! Even the Grinch grapes were ready!
Everyone had fun coming up with different designs to add to their Giant Ornament.
Some serious concentration here.
