Extra DOTS Series 8 – Glitter and Shine

Description

Tiles rather than building parts

Unlike a typical building set, Extra DOTS Series 8 consists almost entirely of small, square tiles in glossy and shimmering finishes. Black, bright pink, dark azure and a translucent brown opal element combine into a striking, sparkly colour mix designed for glitter effects on DOTS frames, jewellery or decorative pieces. Rather than a model to assemble, the set supplies material for your own craft projects. The glossy surface of the tiles catches light differently from matte standard pieces, adding an extra visual effect to any pattern.

Only 8 distinct parts

With just 8 distinct parts making up the 105 pieces, this is one of the most uniform sets in the catalogue: nearly every piece is a tile variant in a handful of shapes, differing mainly by colour and finish. That makes it less of a build and more of a material stock, one that can be spread flexibly across several DOTS projects. This simplicity also makes it an easy starting point for younger children learning to sort and lay out patterns.

An add-on rather than a standalone set

Extra DOTS sets like this one exist to top up larger DOTS frames, bracelets or organisers rather than to offer a standalone building experience. Anyone already working on DOTS projects can use the glossy tiles to add new patterns or sparkle accents without buying a whole new main set. That is particularly useful when running several DOTS projects at once, since a small refill set can be added exactly where it is needed instead of buying a full starter set each time.

A parts list for planning patterns

The parts list on this page sets out all 8 elements with colour and exact quantity. That is useful for planning in advance how many tiles of a given colour are available for a particular pattern, or for combining this set with other Extra DOTS sets to build up a wider palette for your own creations. It also makes it easy to check beforehand whether the included quantity will be enough for a planned project.
