<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n We’ve been on a Perler bead kick around here and have made all of these fun shapes in a rainbow of colors! Wanting to display our creations, here is a great way to hang them up. Be sure to try the glow in the dark beads…so fun for a kid’s room too! To keep those kiddos busy, here is a link to lots more Yarny Kids Projects to check out together:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Click here for lots of Yarny Kids Projects!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Begin by making your shapes using the beads and the peg boards. You can do a fancy pattern, or a multi-color mix like we did. Following manufactures instructions and using the included parchment paper, iron the beads to fuse them. Note: It is extremely important to have the paper in between the plastic beads and the iron so you don’t ruin your iron! I found that the non-steam setting worked best.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Let cool completely before moving on.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Cut a length of yarn,<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Thread through one of the beads to hang. During the ironing process, the openings to the beads will close up a bit. The yarn needle will help get the yarn through. Do this part gently as to not break the joined together beads.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Knot the yarn and swing the knot to the back of the ornament.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Optional step: I wanted to add a festive tassel to make it extra festive, to make one too, check out this helpful tutorial:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n How To Make A Tassel Tutorial (Photo + Video)<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Note: The red tassel shown in the photos here is made the same exact way, but yarn is only wrapped around two fingers to make the tassel smaller.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Finish up the ornament by securing the tassel and trimming the ends. Super cute!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n For more fun projects and pretty patterns, be sure to follow us on Google+<\/a>, Facebook<\/a>, Twitter<\/a>, and Pinterest<\/a> for the latest updates!<\/span><\/p>\n
