Perfect for our school project

We used these materials for a cultural arts day at school. The bamboo is flexible yet sturdy, and the skins took paint beautifully. Highly recommend for educators!

Great variety of sizes

The assortment of stick lengths made it easy to build different kite shapes. One skin had a small tear, but there were enough spares to complete the project.

Fun family activity

Spent the whole weekend building kites with my kids. The instructions could be clearer, but the materials themselves are top-notch and easy to work with.

Good value for money

You get a lot of material for the price. The binding strips are a bit thin, so I supplemented with some extra thread, but overall a great kit.

Authentic crafting experience

As someone who loves traditional crafts, this kit feels authentic. The natural bamboo smell and texture bring back memories. Perfect for birdcage repairs too.

Excellent for lantern frames

I bought this specifically for making traditional paper lanterns, not just kites. The bamboo bends perfectly without snapping. Very satisfied with the quality.

5 FAQ

Q: Can these materials be used outdoors immediately after assembly?

A: Once assembled and fully dried (if painted), the kites are ready for light outdoor use. However, avoid flying them in strong winds or rain as they are made of natural materials.

Q: Can I use regular acrylic paint on the kite skins?

A: Yes, the skins are designed to accept both watercolors and acrylic paints. We recommend diluting acrylics slightly for better absorption.

Q: Is glue included in the package?

A: No, glue and other tools like scissors and paintbrushes are not included. You will need to provide your own adhesive suitable for paper and wood.

Q: What is the best way to store leftover bamboo strips?

A: Store leftover bamboo in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping or drying out. A sealed container works best.

Q: Are the bamboo sticks pre-cut to specific lengths?

A: The kit includes an assortment of pre-cut sticks ranging from 30cm to 60cm. You can further trim them with scissors or a craft knife to fit your design.
