Mom Review: This is by far one of my favorite new products we are testing. (To be fair to the other products we have not even opened them all.)   I love the versatility and watching the creativity the Fashion Plates create.  Not only do I want to sit down and play with this product, it was a great way to utilize some of the fabric scraps I had on hand.  Then we got creative and started cutting up pieces of ribbon to use with the fashion plates.  I will now be on the look-out for material I can cut up to use with the Fashion Plates.  As my husband stated when he saw the fashion plates, “What you can do with it is only limited by your own creativity.”

Kid Tester Review: “Five Stars…no…100 stars…no…Infinity Stars!!!” My favorite part is that you can make a bunch of different styles.  I also like that you can change the faces.  I like that you can re-use the fabric.
