Perler Beads - Craft Fun for All - Holidays, Parties, Sleepovers, Etc
Perler Beads Crafts add Pizzaz to holidays and parties and keep kids and adults entertained for hours.
This video illustrates the fun and simplicity of using Perler Beads to create a holiday ornament. It is inexpensive and entertaining for everyone. Perler Beads and Perler kits can be found at places like AC Moores, Toys R Us (limited selection except during Christmas holiday season), and Michael's. These beads can be used to create a vast number of crafts (decorated buckets, holiday ornaments, shoes, bracelets, etc.). If you cannot find them locally, you can purchase them online at http://store.inkadinkado.com/prod_list.lasso?cat_id=3_5_Activity%20Beads&max=all (although they will cost quite a bit more here). Have Fun!

Post a CommentI used to do this craft when I was a kid and stuck in the hopsital. Great therapy and it also brings out creativity. My 3 year old daughter does it now and she sells the stuff she makes. She uses the money to buy more beads. Perler's website, perlerbeads.com, has great ideas and I asked them if my daughter could use their designs and then sell them. They said yes, they are not copyrighted. The things you can do with each board is unlimited!
I have never heard of this craft. Next year I will do this with my kids and we will create a Christmas tree full of homemade ornaments. Thanks for doing this!
I loved this! I had never heard of this craft and can't wait to try it with my kids.
