Looking for something to do with your kids in your spare time? We've got just the thing: Hama ironing beads and crazy plastic!
Catherine, from the blog Lili joue maman bricole, shows you how to make ultra-colored pins to brighten up your outfits! But that's not all: you can also personalize a backpack or pencil case!
What are iron-on beads?
They're little multicolored plastic beads that you place on a plate to create the motif you want! Using an iron and a sheet of baking paper, the beads stick together!
We love to see what you can do with the tutorials on Perles & Co. So don't hesitate to send us photos of your creations on our Facebookpage or tag us on Instagram #perlesandco .
Hama pins:
Place the pearls on the plate. Once the design is complete, place a sheet of baking paper on top and run a hot iron over it for a few seconds.
Caution: before removing the plate, check that the beads have melted and allow to cool!
Glue the pin holder in place
Designer's tip: if you wish to consolidate your pin, you can glue a small piece of felt in the shape of the hama bead model between the pin holder and the beads!
Crazy plastic pins:
Offset the pattern or draw freehand on the sanded side of the plastic sheet.
Color, taking care not to touch the design with your fingers, then leave to dry.
Place in the oven according to the instructions on the packaging. Leave to cool, then stick on the pin holder!
