Operation Christmas Child: Bead Kits - Great Cold Weather Service Project

That cat running back and forth in the background is hilarious. The bead kits are so fun!!!

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

We could make a game out of “find the cats” in the background of all our videos. 😂😂

I suppose you could even go cheap and use ziploc bags - but your presentation is fantastic!

[@annetteh.26]

Great job! I like the clippers idea and making a sample.❤

[@teebaby4000]

Minnie and Vinnie are adorable, nice bead kits.

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thank you.

I have seen others include bead kits in their boxes but never was interested in making them. But you showing this project has now inspired me to think about doing this for next years boxes! I actually shared this video with my number one helper and asked her opinion on doing this! I’m hoping she gets as excited about it as I have! 😃❤️😃❤️😃❤️👏👏👏

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Me too!! They are fun to make and I think the girls will love them.

That is such a neat idea. We usually make bracelets, but don't send a kit. My granddaughter, who has been packing shoeboxes with me for 16 years, made the bracelets this year and most of them last year. Last year, (2023)she came to my house and made the bracelets to match the outfits I had. This year I sent her pictures and she matched them. Please pray for her and the rest of the family as we lost her dad and my son Nov 10,2023. The packing party was the night before his funeral and she still came.

I am so sorry for your loss. I will pray for comfort and peace for your family. It’s very sweet that you and your granddaughter work together packing shoeboxes. 🥰

I love making jewelry kits too!

[@drogers]

It’s ok to be “extra”!!!😂 I totally agree! If you love it, they will too! Love the idea of the nail clippers! The beads look so cute with one made and added to the top of the jar! Love it! And thanks for the shout out! ❤❤❤

[@byrdfeed9071]

This turned out great and I love the idea of putting a premade bracelet around the jar. Super cute! ❤

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thanks!

[@tammyjones3709]

Those are cute bead😊 kits❤ Love the jars. Great ideal to add a finished bracelet. Thanks for sharing

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thanks! I figured the finished bracelet would be good inspiration for the girls.

[@judygriffing1276]

Your cats are hilarious! ❤ Super cute bead kits! 😀

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

I thought Vinnie was super cute jumping up on my chair like he was gonna make some bead kits 😂

[@FamMaes]

How fun what a great idea 😊 You are such a beautiful and caring person.

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

You are so kind. 🥰

[@barbconrad9548]

I love these. I do a similar bead kit but in small plastic zipper bags so I can lay them flat and fit more in. Your jars are so cute though! ❤️

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

That’s a great idea too.

[@annika4073]

The nail clippers are genius! These kits are just so cute!

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thanks!

[@josee123]

Those little jars are cute, I love them! I just bought some containers yesterday to do make your own bracelet kits for my boxes next year. I like everything you got for yours, they're so colourful and lovely!

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thank you! Have fun making yours!

[@PamsPackingOCCshoeboxes]

Great video. I love making bead kits; I’ve tried out a few types of containers but I love these that you found on Amazon. They are so pretty and the perfect size. I never thought of including the nail clippers to cut the string-what a great idea especially if making as a filler item to donate to OCC. TFS

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thank you!

[@ginac7839]

The nail clippers are genius! (As is including the premade bracelet) I made bracelet kits this year and never thought about including a way to cut the stretchy string🤦🏻‍♀️ I did include the mini clothespins tho…lol

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Good idea with the clothespin.

[@patriciagriswold6060]

Yes I would appreciate a link for the cord or string. How much cord do you send? Also can you send a link for the jars😊 TFS

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Here’s the link for the string: Tenn Well 1mm Elastic String for... www.amazon.com/dp/B07KGQPVXT?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share And here’s the jars: 48 Pcs 4 oz Clear Plastic Jars... www.amazon.com/dp/B0CFQS3DVL?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

I didn’t exactly measure but tried to get around 10 feet per jar.

[@Carolann_237]

These are adorable kits! I just added another project to work on next year. Thanks for sharing. Also what age group would this be good for?

[@GuilkeysLimitedAdventures]

Thanks! I think these would be great for 5-9 and 10-14.
