Transcript

When we heard Play-Doh was making a new product for adults, we were kind of confused. What did that mean? Turns out it means a chill, screen-free afternoon spent making flowers. Blooms by Play-Doh takes the childhood classic and turns it into a colorful bouquet for your home or office. Using a combination of molds and patience, you can make 12 flowers with different colors. You could follow the destined colors or freestyle with your own color preference. It's an oddly satisfying way to spend a few hours rolling, pressing and shaping the dough with your hands. Once you build all of your flowers, you let them dry for about an hour. Then, spray them with the included spray and let them dry again. After that, your Play-Doh flowers are ready for display.
