Loom Band Fashion - From Playground to Mainstream

Article Category: Arts and Crafts

Author Name: Celina Moy

If you have no idea what loom bands are, try asking the nearest seven year old you can find. The mere mention of it will get them wide-eyed with excitement. It is the latest fad currently sweeping schools and is said to match the popularity of yo-yos, hula hoops, marbles, Tamagotchis, and Pokemon cards. It has literally catapulted rubber bands into superstar status.

Although diy jewellery using rubber bands is getting a lot of attention nowadays, they have actually been around for quite some time. Little girls have been looping together elastic bands using their fingers to craft bracelets, charms, and necklaces among others.

The design of the loom board was actually based on that child craft when a mechanical engineer tried to join his daughters. Cheong Choon Ng realized that his fingers were too big for the tiny rubber bands and it led him to come up with a prototype composed of a wooden board and some push pins.

When he saw the potential of his loom board, he invested 10 thousand dollars to establish a startup company that produces and sells loom band kits. Business was not all smooth sailing but when sales picked up, he quit his post as crash test engineer in a car manufacturing company. Now, the company he built from scratch is earning millions of dollars per month and more than 3 million loom band kits have been sold as of this writing.

But the popularity of loom bands far exceeded its creator's expectations. What started as a pastime for little girls on the playground has hit mainstream and loom bands are now adorning adults too. It's so popular now that celebrities and even royalties are being seen with their own personal collections of this diy jewellery. Football superstar David Beckham and young heartthrob Harry Styles have been seen donning their own personal loom bracelets and Prince Harry is said to have a collection of more than two hundred pieces of it. But what revved up the sales of the loom band kits was when Kate Middleton was seen wearing one.

And what was once limited to diy jewellery has branched out to other accessories and designs. There are tons of video tutorials currently in the Internet showing different designs and how they are made, step by step. There are designs for crafting rings, belts, wallets, and phone cases. There are even designs for animals and cartoon characters. The possibility is unlimited. One creation that recent caught the attention of loom band enthusiasts is a dress made entirely of loom bands. It was so unique that one anonymous buyer purchased it for around 2 hundred thousand dollars from eBay, where the designer posted it. This only shows that loom bands are here to stay.

When shopping for a loom band kit, one brand and package that's getting a lot of buzz is the JC Loom Complete Starter Kit. It's the perfect gift and comes with the following:
