Fuse beads are one of my favorite
craft activities, especially during the holidays! This is also a great craft for children. I created a cute gingerbread man to use as a decoration for my home. There are few materials, which is a quick and easy process activity.
material:
Fuse bead board
fuse
Fuse bronzing paper
To make the gingerbread man, I used a bear-shaped pegboard. First sort out the colors you want to use. Put the beads of each color into a paint cup or small container. This makes it easier to place the beads on the nail plate. I chose brown for the body, white for the face, arms and legs, and yellow for the buttons.
Now you can start placing the beads on the nail plate. You will see that I missed my ears! This bear peg board is perfect for gingerbread men. You can follow the patterns I use, or you can be creative and make your own patterns.
Next, cover the beads with ironing paper. To be safe, I use a cutting board to work. Turn the iron to medium and spin it for about 30 seconds to blend the beads evenly. You can decide whether to iron only one side or both sides at the same time.
Enjoy your cute gingerbread man! You can also use magnets to put him on the refrigerator.
