Awesome! I just discovered your site a few days ago. Love all your bright, vibrant colors!
Thank you! I love to sew them and think about the hands that will use them.
Have used these great stretchy bands in my family music classes. I am traveling to Guatemala soon and will be teaching music classes to 4 classes and a mother/child early stimulation class. La Puerta Abierta is an early childhood center and community education center in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala.
Love to help you out! Just sent you an email to see what type/size would suit your needs best.
