Needed:
- A baking sheet
- Unpainted metal cookie cutters
- Perler beads
- Parchment paper
- String, yarn or ribbon for hanging
Instructions:
- 1.) Preheat your oven to 400F.
- 2.) Place a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet and place your metal cookie cutters on top.
- 3.) Sort out your Perler beads into the colors you’re going to want to use. Fill your metal ornaments in a single layer with Perler beads. You want them to just be in a single layer so they melt evenly. No overlapping!
- 4.) Place the baking sheet in the oven at 400F for 10 minutes. This will melt the beads enough that they stick together/stick to the sides of the ornaments, but not melt them completely.
- 5.) Take them out of the oven and let cool completely.
- 6.) Remove from the parchment paper – they should remove very easily once cooled – and string a piece of yarn/ribbon/string through one of the holes to hang from the tree.
