I'm very pleased with this Jewelry Making Kit. It's nice how many different combinations can be made with just what is included in the kit. The pendents are metal, and the glass cabochons make a nice sealed cover of photos or any of the included images found in the kit. Everything is packaged securely. I appreciate the included black cord string and chains to use with the pendants to make a necklace. Of course, there are many different ways to include a finished pendant into a very unique piece. There are basic art supplies in the kit to create a one of a kind image, or you can use one you have on hand. Glue is also included, but I would advise that this be used by an adult, it appears to be solvent based. I find the kit to be an excellent value, especially in comparison with similar products sold in the crafting stores. I much prefer this kit for all of the inclusions.
