Loom Bands - From Harry Styles to Kate Middleton

Article Category: Arts and Crafts

Author Name: Celina Moy

The mere mention of loom bands to primary school kids is sure to be met with silent and excited sighs. Also known as rainbow looms or crazy looms, these plastic loops are turning up everywhere and has been parents' secret for silencing the kids for hours and keeping them off the television or the computer.

And for those who have no idea what loom bands are, they are rubber bands that kids loop together on a board or using their fingers to make bracelets, charms, keyrings, anklets, necklaces, and other diy jewellery. Children and adults are gaga about them that they are selling like hotcakes in Amazon taking up top places in the best-selling toy category.

This craze has been brought about by one father who wanted to join his daughters making loom bands using rubber bands with their fingers but he can't because his fingers are too big, thus the creation of the loom board.

Cheong Choon Ng, creator of the first loom board has also turned his initial investment of 10 thousand dollars into a business that makes 100 million dollars per year. He quit his job as a mechanical crash test engineer in Nissan when his business picked up. He now has sold more than 4 million loom band starter kits.

For those who are just beginning with the loom band craft, there are differing difficulty levels accompanying each design for diy jewellery- fishtail, inverted fishtail, bonbon, diamond. And there are literally countless tutorials available online that shows how each design is done.

More creative and inventive crafters have come up with designs for phone cases, cartoon characters, gloves, hats and other accessories. There was even a dress made of loom bands that was sold in eBay for a couple of hundred thousand dollars. It was a museum-worthy, although uncomfortable, piece of clothing.

Loom bands are also thought as the biggest non-digital craze to come up out of the 21st century much like the marbles, hula hoops, and yo-yos. And parents can only attest to how effective they are in keeping the kids creative while keeping them away from the television.

Some schools are encouraging their students in crafting these diy jewellery out of rubber bands and later selling their creations for charity.

Even celebrities and royalties couldn't keep their hands off them. Prince William and Kate Middleton have their own collections. David Beckham and Harry Styles are showing off theirs, too. This makes loom bands even more popular fuelling more sales.

One popular brand is the JC Loom Complete Starter Kit available in Amazon for the price of less than forty dollars. Each JC Loom Complete Starter Kit comes in a strong and durable plastic box that contains the following:

One 39 pin loom

Approximately 2,200 colored (all the colors of the rainbox plus black, navy blue, purply, turquoise, pink, teal, and white) rubber bands that are made of latex-free and high quality materials
- 50 connector clips
- 4 hooks.
- 4 charms
- One instruction leaflet
