  3. This looks like so much fun. I would have a blast doing this craft kit with my daughter.

  5. We just registered my first and only grandson for soccer. He is five, and I would love to be able to win this for him. Thank you in advance for the opportunity

  6. I work for the YMCA, our youth soccer program is HUGE! I would love to have this to decorate and let the kids play with it while their parents register.

  11. e-mail subscriber (by the way, I meant to say craft, not giveaway in my other post. Sorry!)

  12. This soccer ball kit would have been great back when I was playing soccer! I am hoping to get my 4 year old daughter on a soccer team this year and this just might be the way to get her to LOVE it from the start!

  15. My boys would love this. They just started soccer this summer, so it’s perfect!

  17. I want to win because i think this would be soo cool to have for my little brother!!

  18. I would love to win this for my daughter. I played soccer for over 18 years when I was growing up. I was hoping for my daughter to love it as much as I did. Unfortunately, her first experience with it, this spring, was horrible – from her mean coach to her own teammates that would steal the ball from her to score when she was on a breakaway! I would really like her to try it again on a new team because I think it’s a great sport that teaches team building and comradarie as well as allowing her to run and kick, 2 of her fave things to do. This ball would definitely get her excited to play the game again! 🙂

  20. Wow, that is awesome. I would love to win that, and give it to my niece to paint. She and I do art projects all the time and her soccer practice just started back up last week. She would really love it.

  22. I would love to win this giveaway, so I could personalize the ball as a Christmas gift for my grandson in Iowa. Since I’m in Pennsylvania and he is a thousand miles away, I don’t get to see him often. This ball would be a great gift for him because he would think of me whenever he uses it!

  23. I just subscribed to the newsletter. I guess I never realized CraftGossip website had a newsletter, too! I look forward to reading it!

  26. I would love to win this kit for my husband and son – They both like soccer and I think it would be a great activity for them. I am also a subscriber.

  27. i have two soccer loving boys, and i know they would love to have their own personalized soccer balls. too fun!

  29. AWW I HAVE A SOCCER CRAZY DAUGHTER THAT WOULD LOVE THIS!!! WAY TOO COOL… WHERE CAN I FIND ONE? NEWSLETTER SUBSCRIBER TOO 🙂

  33. My daughters are 8 and and started playing soccer last spring, It was the first team sport they have played together they both, while they both had a great time playing only one decided it was truly something she wanted to continue to do.. . .I am excited for her to start creating her own identity, and the ability to make her own friend, and not be considered . .”one of the twins”

  37. This year I was visiting Cameroon when I met a little boy who asked if I could send a football for him and his friends to play with. This would be ideal as they could also enjoy decorating it first. I only wish I could see their faces when he received it! (P.S. I already subscribe to the newsletter.) Thank you.

  38. I had never seen this product before either, love it . . . just such a great idea. I teach art and was going to have students design a ball of choice on paper and thought the winners would get one of the many products on product website. I love all these creative websites and blogs. Thanks!

  40. I would love to win this kit for my son and husband. My husband is a lifelong soccer player and coach. My toddler already loves to play ball, especially soccer. One of his first words was “ball”. Everything was “ball” for a long while.

  42. Ohhhh woww-this is so kewl!! If I win one of these I will decorate it to go in my sons sports themed bedroom.He loves different types of balls… This would be great…I subscribed to the newsletter..

  43. My neice would love this!!!! She is so into soccer and LOVES any kind of arts and crafts!!!!!

  45. This is a great idea. My 7 year old daughter is in her second year of playing soccer and loves it. She loves arts and crafts and would love to decorate her own soccer ball. This is such an awesome website. Just saved to my favs. I’ll be making the skinny jeans this afternoon!

  47. this is so cool! I think it would be such a fun craft to do with kids…plus they will get more use out of it than a house made of pasta noodles haha

  48. I love it. My daughter has been a soccer fan since she was two. She started playing this year now that she’s five. She would go crazy over this.

  49. This is a very cool idea. I run a before & after school program and I come up with all of the projects we do. I have found it easy to find crafts that appeal to girls, but this looks like an awesome craft that would appeal to boys just as much. Winning one of these would make a super “prize” for one of my kids and it would also be a great promotion for the product to the kids and parents in my program.

  50. YAY…I am now a subscriber! I’d really like to win the soccerball kit to share with my kids in the before and afterschool program for which I work. It is difficult to find craft projects that appeal to boys as much as girls and I think having this at my site would be a great promotion of the product to the families in my program. Thanks for your consideration!

  58. I have been a loyal follower of CraftBits for a couple of years…Facebook as well as email. Love your ideas!!

  59. Would LOVE to win this soccer ball kit!! My family and I are soccer fanatics…Love Love Love the game!! In face my oldest starts his 6th season of soccer here in just a few days!! This would be perfect!!
