Not sure about words. We have purchased some packages with charms that are worked into the "bracelets" to dangle, just like you would expect a charm to do. I know they have neon colors, pastel colors, variety packages, single color packages. I even think we have seen scented bands. There is the rainbow brand and then other brands as well. My daughter doesn't care about brand, she uses them all and looks to get the best bargain for her money. Example - Target does not have the rainbow brand and their brand is less expensive than the Michael's craft store that is across the parking lot. (This is the shopping area near our home that is accessible by city bus. I am not certain about what all store locations carry.) <br><br>Shelbi<br> <br><br>-----Original Message-----<br>From: Nfb-krafters-korner [mailto:<a href='mailto:nfb-krafters-korner-bounces at nfbnet.org' style='color:#3333ff'>nfb-krafters-korner-bounces at nfbnet.org</a>] On Behalf Of ncbootman--- via Nfb-krafters-korner<br>Sent: August 4, 2015 11:17 AM<br>To: List for blind crafters and artists<br>Cc: <a href='mailto:ncbootman at gmail.com' style='color:#3333ff'>ncbootman at gmail.com</a><br>Subject: Re: [Nfb-krafters-korner] Rainbow Loom<br><br>Are the rubber bands different colors?
