Perler Bead Keychains
|
|
| Have the children carefully arrange the perler beads in their preferred
shape -- we made all sorts of shapes. | |
| Follow the directions on the perler beads (basically, you arrange the
beads on the form, cover with a waxy paper that comes with the beads and
iron for a couple of seconds.) | |
| Remove the beads from the form and while still warm, poke through the top
hole with a sharp pencil or safety pin (or let it cool and daddy can drill
it with a small bit... because of course daddy likes to play too sometimes) | |
| Thread the string through and tie in a loop onto the keyring. | |
| Hang from your backpack -- and you're ready for back to school! |
