Activity Overview
Create colorful bowls out of Perler Beads in a few easy steps. Children of all ages will enjoy creating their very own crafty and decorative bowls to give as gifts, store items or accent their rooms. This craft can be created in a short amount of time and is easy for all ages to enjoy both during the process and the use afterward.
Adult supervision is required for this craft because this craft is actually baked in the oven. I also always recommend having plenty of ventilation when doing any kind of plastic melting.
